1 # Redis configuration file example
3 # Note on units: when memory size is needed, it is possible to specifiy
4 # it in the usual form of 1k 5GB 4M and so forth:
9 # 1mb => 1024*1024 bytes
10 # 1g => 1000000000 bytes
11 # 1gb => 1024*1024*1024 bytes
13 # units are case insensitive so 1GB 1Gb 1gB are all the same.
15 # By default Redis does not run as a daemon. Use 'yes' if you need it.
16 # Note that Redis will write a pid file in /var/run/redis.pid when daemonized.
19 # When running daemonized, Redis writes a pid file in /var/run/redis.pid by
20 # default. You can specify a custom pid file location here.
21 pidfile /var/run/redis.pid
23 # Accept connections on the specified port, default is 6379.
24 # If port 0 is specified Redis will not listen on a TCP socket.
27 # If you want you can bind a single interface, if the bind option is not
28 # specified all the interfaces will listen for incoming connections.
32 # Specify the path for the unix socket that will be used to listen for
33 # incoming connections. There is no default, so Redis will not listen
34 # on a unix socket when not specified.
36 # unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock
38 # Close the connection after a client is idle for N seconds (0 to disable)
41 # Set server verbosity to 'debug'
43 # debug (a lot of information, useful for development/testing)
44 # verbose (many rarely useful info, but not a mess like the debug level)
45 # notice (moderately verbose, what you want in production probably)
46 # warning (only very important / critical messages are logged)
49 # Specify the log file name. Also 'stdout' can be used to force
50 # Redis to log on the standard output. Note that if you use standard
51 # output for logging but daemonize, logs will be sent to /dev/null
54 # To enable logging to the system logger, just set 'syslog-enabled' to yes,
55 # and optionally update the other syslog parameters to suit your needs.
58 # Specify the syslog identity.
61 # Specify the syslog facility. Must be USER or between LOCAL0-LOCAL7.
62 # syslog-facility local0
64 # Set the number of databases. The default database is DB 0, you can select
65 # a different one on a per-connection basis using SELECT <dbid> where
66 # dbid is a number between 0 and 'databases'-1

71 # Save the DB on disk:
73 # save <seconds> <changes>
75 # Will save the DB if both the given number of seconds and the given
76 # number of write operations against the DB occurred.
78 # In the example below the behaviour will be to save:
79 # after 900 sec (15 min) if at least 1 key changed
80 # after 300 sec (5 min) if at least 10 keys changed
81 # after 60 sec if at least 10000 keys changed
83 # Note: you can disable saving at all commenting all the "save" lines.
89 # Compress string objects using LZF when dump .rdb databases?
90 # For default that's set to 'yes' as it's almost always a win.
91 # If you want to save some CPU in the saving child set it to 'no' but
92 # the dataset will likely be bigger if you have compressible values or keys.
95 # The filename where to dump the DB
98 # The working directory.
100 # The DB will be written inside this directory, with the filename specified
101 # above using the 'dbfilename' configuration directive.
103 # Also the Append Only File will be created inside this directory.
105 # Note that you must specify a directory here, not a file name.
108 ################################# REPLICATION #################################
110 # Master-Slave replication. Use slaveof to make a Redis instance a copy of
111 # another Redis server. Note that the configuration is local to the slave
112 # so for example it is possible to configure the slave to save the DB with a
113 # different interval, or to listen to another port, and so on.
115 # slaveof <masterip> <masterport>
117 # If the master is password protected (using the "requirepass" configuration
118 # directive below) it is possible to tell the slave to authenticate before
119 # starting the replication synchronization process, otherwise the master will
120 # refuse the slave request.
122 # masterauth <master-password>
124 # When a slave lost the connection with the master, or when the replication
125 # is still in progress, the slave can act in two different ways:
127 # 1) if slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'yes' (the default) the slave will
128 # still reply to client requests, possibly with out of data data, or the
129 # data set may just be empty if this is the first synchronization.
131 # 2) if slave-serve-stale data is set to 'no' the slave will reply with
132 # an error "SYNC with master in progress" to all the kind of commands
133 # but to INFO and SLAVEOF.
135 slave-serve-stale-data yes
137 ################################## SECURITY ###################################
139 # Require clients to issue AUTH <PASSWORD> before processing any other

143 # This should stay commented out for backward compatibility and because most

146 # Warning: since Redis is pretty fast an outside user can try up to

168 ################################### LIMITS ####################################
170 # Set the max number of connected clients at the same time. By default there
171 # is no limit, and it's up to the number of file descriptors the Redis process
172 # is able to open. The special value '0' means no limits.
173 # Once the limit is reached Redis will close all the new connections sending
174 # an error 'max number of clients reached'.
178 # Don't use more memory than the specified amount of bytes.
179 # When the memory limit is reached Redis will try to remove keys with an
180 # EXPIRE set. It will try to start freeing keys that are going to expire
181 # in little time and preserve keys with a longer time to live.
182 # Redis will also try to remove objects from free lists if possible.
184 # If all this fails, Redis will start to reply with errors to commands
185 # that will use more memory, like SET, LPUSH, and so on, and will continue
186 # to reply to most read-only commands like GET.
188 # WARNING: maxmemory can be a good idea mainly if you want to use Redis as a
189 # 'state' server or cache, not as a real DB. When Redis is used as a real
190 # database the memory usage will grow over the weeks, it will be obvious if
191 # it is going to use too much memory in the long run, and you'll have the time
192 # to upgrade. With maxmemory after the limit is reached you'll start to get
193 # errors for write operations, and this may even lead to DB inconsistency.
197 # MAXMEMORY POLICY: how Redis will select what to remove when maxmemory
198 # is reached? You can select among five behavior:
200 # volatile-lru -> remove the key with an expire set using an LRU algorithm
201 # allkeys-lru -> remove any key accordingly to the LRU algorithm
202 # volatile-random -> remove a random key with an expire set
203 # allkeys->random -> remove a random key, any key
204 # volatile-ttl -> remove the key with the nearest expire time (minor TTL)
205 # noeviction -> don't expire at all, just return an error on write operations
207 # Note: with all the kind of policies, Redis will return an error on write
208 # operations, when there are not suitable keys for eviction.
210 # At the date of writing this commands are: set setnx setex append
211 # incr decr rpush lpush rpushx lpushx linsert lset rpoplpush sadd
212 # sinter sinterstore sunion sunionstore sdiff sdiffstore zadd zincrby
213 # zunionstore zinterstore hset hsetnx hmset hincrby incrby decrby
214 # getset mset msetnx exec sort
218 # maxmemory-policy volatile-lru
220 # LRU and minimal TTL algorithms are not precise algorithms but approximated
221 # algorithms (in order to save memory), so you can select as well the sample
222 # size to check. For instance for default Redis will check three keys and
223 # pick the one that was used less recently, you can change the sample size
224 # using the following configuration directive.
226 # maxmemory-samples 3
228 ############################## APPEND ONLY MODE ###############################
230 # By default Redis asynchronously dumps the dataset on disk. If you can live
231 # with the idea that the latest records will be lost if something like a crash
232 # happens this is the preferred way to run Redis. If instead you care a lot
233 # about your data and don't want to that a single record can get lost you should
234 # enable the append only mode: when this mode is enabled Redis will append
235 # every write operation received in the file appendonly.aof. This file will
236 # be read on startup in order to rebuild the full dataset in memory.
238 # Note that you can have both the async dumps and the append only file if you
239 # like (you have to comment the "save" statements above to disable the dumps).
240 # Still if append only mode is enabled Redis will load the data from the
241 # log file at startup ignoring the dump.rdb file.
243 # IMPORTANT: Check the BGREWRITEAOF to check how to rewrite the append
244 # log file in background when it gets too big.
248 # The name of the append only file (default: "appendonly.aof")
249 # appendfilename appendonly.aof
251 # The fsync() call tells the Operating System to actually write data on disk
252 # instead to wait for more data in the output buffer. Some OS will really flush
253 # data on disk, some other OS will just try to do it ASAP.
255 # Redis supports three different modes:
257 # no: don't fsync, just let the OS flush the data when it wants. Faster.
258 # always: fsync after every write to the append only log . Slow, Safest.
259 # everysec: fsync only if one second passed since the last fsync. Compromise.
261 # The default is "everysec" that's usually the right compromise between
262 # speed and data safety. It's up to you to understand if you can relax this to
263 # "no" that will will let the operating system flush the output buffer when
264 # it wants, for better performances (but if you can live with the idea of
265 # some data loss consider the default persistence mode that's snapshotting),
266 # or on the contrary, use "always" that's very slow but a bit safer than
269 # If unsure, use "everysec".
275 # When the AOF fsync policy is set to always or everysec, and a background
276 # saving process (a background save or AOF log background rewriting) is
277 # performing a lot of I/O against the disk, in some Linux configurations
278 # Redis may block too long on the fsync() call. Note that there is no fix for
279 # this currently, as even performing fsync in a different thread will block
280 # our synchronous write(2) call.
282 # In order to mitigate this problem it's possible to use the following option
283 # that will prevent fsync() from being called in the main process while a
284 # BGSAVE or BGREWRITEAOF is in progress.
286 # This means that while another child is saving the durability of Redis is
287 # the same as "appendfsync none", that in pratical terms means that it is
288 # possible to lost up to 30 seconds of log in the worst scenario (with the
289 # default Linux settings).
291 # If you have latency problems turn this to "yes". Otherwise leave it as
292 # "no" that is the safest pick from the point of view of durability.
293 no-appendfsync-on-rewrite no
295 # Automatic rewrite of the append only file.
296 # Redis is able to automatically rewrite the log file implicitly calling
297 # BGREWRITEAOF when the AOF log size will growth by the specified percentage.
299 # This is how it works: Redis remembers the size of the AOF file after the
300 # latest rewrite (or if no rewrite happened since the restart, the size of
301 # the AOF at startup is used).
303 # This base size is compared to the current size. If the current size is
304 # bigger than the specified percentage, the rewrite is triggered. Also
305 # you need to specify a minimal size for the AOF file to be rewritten, this
306 # is useful to avoid rewriting the AOF file even if the percentage increase
307 # is reached but it is still pretty small.
309 # Specify a precentage of zero in order to disable the automatic AOF

315 ################################## SLOW LOG ###################################
317 # The Redis Slow Log is a system to log queries that exceeded a specified
318 # execution time. The execution time does not include the I/O operations
319 # like talking with the client, sending the reply and so forth,
320 # but just the time needed to actually execute the command (this is the only
321 # stage of command execution where the thread is blocked and can not serve
322 # other requests in the meantime).
324 # You can configure the slow log with two parameters: one tells Redis
325 # what is the execution time, in microseconds, to exceed in order for the
326 # command to get logged, and the other parameter is the length of the
327 # slow log. When a new command is logged the oldest one is removed from the
328 # queue of logged commands.

333 ############################### ADVANCED CONFIG ###############################
335 # Hashes are encoded in a special way (much more memory efficient) when they
336 # have at max a given numer of elements, and the biggest element does not
337 # exceed a given threshold. You can configure this limits with the following
338 # configuration directives.
339 hash-max-zipmap-entries 512
340 hash-max-zipmap-value 64
342 # Similarly to hashes, small lists are also encoded in a special way in order
343 # to save a lot of space. The special representation is only used when
344 # you are under the following limits:
345 list-max-ziplist-entries 512
346 list-max-ziplist-value 64
348 # Sets have a special encoding in just one case: when a set is composed
349 # of just strings that happens to be integers in radix 10 in the range
350 # of 64 bit signed integers.
351 # The following configuration setting sets the limit in the size of the
352 # set in order to use this special memory saving encoding.
353 set-max-intset-entries 512
355 # Similarly to hashes and lists, sorted sets are also specially encoded in
356 # order to save a lot of space. This encoding is only used when the length and

358 zset-max-ziplist-entries 128
359 zset-max-ziplist-value 64
361 # Active rehashing uses 1 millisecond every 100 milliseconds of CPU time in
362 # order to help rehashing the main Redis hash table (the one mapping top-level
363 # keys to values). The hash table implementation redis uses (see dict.c)
364 # performs a lazy rehashing: the more operation you run into an hash table
365 # that is rhashing, the more rehashing "steps" are performed, so if the
366 # server is idle the rehashing is never complete and some more memory is used
369 # The default is to use this millisecond 10 times every second in order to
370 # active rehashing the main dictionaries, freeing memory when possible.
373 # use "activerehashing no" if you have hard latency requirements and it is
374 # not a good thing in your environment that Redis can reply form time to time
375 # to queries with 2 milliseconds delay.
377 # use "activerehashing yes" if you don't have such hard requirements but
378 # want to free memory asap when possible.
