Use slaveof to make a Redis instance a copy of 275# another Redis server. A few things to understand ASAP about Redis replication. 276# 277# 1) Redis replication is asynchronous, but you can configure a master to 278# stop accepting writes if it appears to be not connected with at least 279# a given number of slaves. 280# 2) Redis slaves are able to perform a partial resynchronization with the 281# master if the replication link is lost for a relatively small amount of 282# time. You may want to configure the replication backlog size (see the next 283# sections of this file) with a sensible value depending on your needs. 284# 3) Replication is automatic and does not need user intervention. After a 285# network partition slaves automatically try to reconnect to masters 286# and resynchronize with them. 287# 288# slaveof <masterip> <masterport> 289 290# If the master is password protected (using the "requirepass" configuration 291# directive below) it is possible to tell the slave to authenticate before 292# starting the replication synchronization process, otherwise the master will 293# refuse the slave request. 294# 295# masterauth <master-password> 296 297# When a slave loses its connection with the master, or when the replication 298# is still in progress, the slave can act in two different ways: 299# 300# 1) if slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'yes' (the default) the slave will 301# still reply to client requests, possibly with out of date data, or the 302# data set may just be empty if this is the first synchronization. 303# 304# 2) if slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'no' the slave will reply with 305# an error "SYNC with master in progress" to all the kind of commands 306# but to INFO and SLAVEOF. 307# 308slave-serve-stale-data yes 309 310# You can configure a slave instance to accept writes or not.

Later the file is transferred by the parent 339# process to the slaves incrementally. 340# 2) Diskless: The Redis master creates a new process that directly writes the 341# RDB file to slave sockets, without touching the disk at all. 342# 343# With disk-backed replication, while the RDB file is generated, more slaves 344# can be queued and served with the RDB file as soon as the current child producing 345# the RDB file finishes its work. With diskless replication instead once 346# the transfer starts, new slaves arriving will be queued and a new transfer 347# will start when the current one terminates. 348# 349# When diskless replication is used, the master waits a configurable amount of 350# time (in seconds) before starting the transfer in the hope that multiple slaves 351# will arrive and the transfer can be parallelized. 352# 353# With slow disks and fast (large bandwidth) networks, diskless replication 354# works better. 355repl-diskless-sync no 356 357# When diskless replication is enabled, it is possible to configure the delay 358# the server waits in order to spawn the child that transfers the RDB via socket 359# to the slaves. 360# 361# This is important since once the transfer starts, it is not possible to serve 362# new slaves arriving, that will be queued for the next RDB transfer, so the server 363# waits a delay in order to let more slaves arrive. 364# 365# The delay is specified in seconds, and by default is 5 seconds.

One is called DEL and is a blocking 613# deletion of the object. It means that the server stops processing new commands 614# in order to reclaim all the memory associated with an object in a synchronous 615# way. If the key deleted is associated with a small object, the time needed 616# in order to execute the DEL command is very small and comparable to most other 617# O(1) or O(log_N) commands in Redis. However if the key is associated with an 618# aggregated value containing millions of elements, the server can block for 619# a long time (even seconds) in order to complete the operation. 620# 621# For the above reasons Redis also offers non blocking deletion primitives 622# such as UNLINK (non blocking DEL) and the ASYNC option of FLUSHALL and 623# FLUSHDB commands, in order to reclaim memory in background. Those commands 624# are executed in constant time. Another thread will incrementally free the 625# object in the background as fast as possible. 626# 627# DEL, UNLINK and ASYNC option of FLUSHALL and FLUSHDB are user-controlled. 628# It's up to the design of the application to understand when it is a good 629# idea to use one or the other. However the Redis server sometimes has to 630# delete keys or flush the whole database as a side effect of other operations. 631# Specifically Redis deletes objects independently of a user call in the 632# following scenarios: 633# 634# 1) On eviction, because of the maxmemory and maxmemory policy configurations, 635# in order to make room for new data, without going over the specified 636# memory limit. 637# 2) Because of expire: when a key with an associated time to live (see the 638# EXPIRE command) must be deleted from memory. 639# 3) Because of a side effect of a command that stores data on a key that may 640# already exist. For example the RENAME command may delete the old key 641# content when it is replaced with another one. Similarly SUNIONSTORE 642# or SORT with STORE option may delete existing keys. The SET command 643# itself removes any old content of the specified key in order to replace 644# it with the specified string. 645# 4) During replication, when a slave performs a full resynchronization with 646# its master, the content of the whole database is removed in order to 647# load the RDB file just transfered. 648# 649# In all the above cases the default is to delete objects in a blocking way, 650# like if DEL was called. However you can configure each case specifically 651# in order to instead release memory in a non-blocking way like if UNLINK 652# was called, using the following configuration directives: 653 654lazyfree-lazy-eviction no 655lazyfree-lazy-expire no 656lazyfree-lazy-server-del no 657slave-lazy-flush no 658 659############################## APPEND ONLY MODE ############################### 660 661# By default Redis asynchronously dumps the dataset on disk.

This can be the last ping or command received (if the master 852# is still in the "connected" state), or the time that elapsed since the 853# disconnection with the master (if the replication link is currently down). 854# If the last interaction is too old, the slave will not try to failover 855# at all. 856# 857# The point "2" can be tuned by user.

However it was stress tested 1257# even in production and manually tested by multiple engineers for some 1258# time. 1259# 1260# What is active defragmentation? 1261# ------------------------------- 1262# 1263# Active (online) defragmentation allows a Redis server to compact the 1264# spaces left between small allocations and deallocations of data in memory, 1265# thus allowing to reclaim back memory. 1266# 1267# Fragmentation is a natural process that happens with every allocator (but 1268# less so with Jemalloc, fortunately) and certain workloads. Normally a server 1269# restart is needed in order to lower the fragmentation, or at least to flush 1270# away all the data and create it again. However thanks to this feature 1271# implemented by Oran Agra for Redis 4.0 this process can happen at runtime 1272# in an "hot" way, while the server is running. 1273# 1274# Basically when the fragmentation is over a certain level (see the 1275# configuration options below) Redis will start to create new copies of the 1276# values in contiguous memory regions by exploiting certain specific Jemalloc 1277# features (in order to understand if an allocation is causing fragmentation 1278# and to allocate it in a better place), and at the same time, will release the 1279# old copies of the data. This process, repeated incrementally for all the keys 1280# will cause the fragmentation to drop back to normal values. 1281# 1282# Important things to understand: 1283# 1284# 1. This feature is disabled by default, and only works if you compiled Redis 1285# to use the copy of Jemalloc we ship with the source code of Redis. 1286# This is the default with Linux builds. 1287# 1288# 2. You never need to enable this feature if you don't have fragmentation 1289# issues. 1290# 1291# 3. Once you experience fragmentation, you can enable this feature when 1292# needed with the command "CONFIG SET activedefrag yes". 1293# 1294# The configuration parameters are able to fine tune the behavior of the 1295# defragmentation process. If you are not sure about what they mean it is 1296# a good idea to leave the defaults untouched. 1297 1298# Enabled active defragmentation 1299# activedefrag yes 1300 1301# Minimum amount of fragmentation waste to start active defrag 1302# active-defrag-ignore-bytes 100mb 1303 1304# Minimum percentage of fragmentation to start active defrag 1305# active-defrag-threshold-lower 10 1306 1307# Maximum percentage of fragmentation at which we use maximum effort 1308# active-defrag-threshold-upper 100 1309 1310# Minimal effort for defrag in CPU percentage 1311# active-defrag-cycle-min 25 1312 1313# Maximal effort for defrag in CPU percentage 1314# active-defrag-cycle-max 75 1315
