# Run as background service
daemonize yes

# for daemonized pid file path
pidfile "/var/run/redis_6379.pid"

# specify log file path
logfile "/var/log/6379.log"

# Set the number of databases, from 0 to 16
databases 16

# specify db dump path
dbfilename dump.rdb

# db will written into this directory
dir "/var/dump/"

# specify redis instance port
port 6379

# bind your public/local ip, to let you access by your ip address
bind ip1 ip2 ip3

# Setup your password (recommend!)
requirepass password

Start Master

1
redis-server /redis/etc/{master.config}

Verify Master

1
redis-cli -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6379 -a password info replication

You should see something like this, if you have slave you will see number of connected_slaves :

Redis slave

Configuration

Repeat master configuration, change your port, bind ip…etc, the only difference are two lines :

1
2
3
4
5
# Specify master instance location
slaveof 127.0.0.1 6379

# For master authentication
masterauth password

Start Slave

1
redis-server /redis/etc/{slave.config}

Verify Slave

1
redis-cli -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6379 -a password info replication

# port to run sentinel

# Consider master objectively down only if at least number of sentinels agree
sentinel monitor master 127.0.0.1 6379 1

# How many seconds master not responding will consider it as down
sentinel down-after-milliseconds master 3000

# How many slave could sentinel reconfigure simultaneously, use low number to prevent all instance unreachable at about the same time
sentinel parallel-syncs master 1

# Sentinel failover timeout
sentinel failover-timeout master 18000

Start sentinel

1
redis-server sentinel.conf --sentinel

Verify sentinel

1
redis-cli -h 127.0.0.1 -p 26379 info sentinel

A little note for yaml format

  • Normally you don’t need quote for string,
  • If string contains special character, use quote "" or ''
  • Difference between "" or '' is double quote parse escape character but single quote doesn’t
