results in the following error:

[ERROR  ] An un-handled exception was caught by Salt's global exception handler:

    1. C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\salt\conf to C:\conf
  2. Open master.conf file from C:\conf\minion.d\master.conf
  3. Edit the config file (create a single entry instead of list for master conf and remove master_type: failover)
