1 # Redis configuration file example
3 # Note on units: when memory size is needed, it is possible to specify
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
39 # Close the connection after a client is idle for N seconds (0 to disable)
42 # Set server verbosity to 'debug'
44 # debug (a lot of information, useful for development/testing)
45 # verbose (many rarely useful info, but not a mess like the debug level)
46 # notice (moderately verbose, what you want in production probably)
47 # warning (only very important / critical messages are logged)
50 # Specify the log file name. Also 'stdout' can be used to force
51 # Redis to log on the standard output. Note that if you use standard
52 # output for logging but daemonize, logs will be sent to /dev/null
55 # To enable logging to the system logger, just set 'syslog-enabled' to yes,
56 # and optionally update the other syslog parameters to suit your needs.
59 # Specify the syslog identity.
62 # Specify the syslog facility. Must be USER or between LOCAL0-LOCAL7.
63 # syslog-facility local0
65 # Set the number of databases. The default database is DB 0, you can select
66 # a different one on a per-connection basis using SELECT <dbid> where
67 # dbid is a number between 0 and 'databases'-1

72 # Save the DB on disk:
74 # save <seconds> <changes>
76 # Will save the DB if both the given number of seconds and the given
77 # number of write operations against the DB occurred.
79 # In the example below the behaviour will be to save:
80 # after 900 sec (15 min) if at least 1 key changed
81 # after 300 sec (5 min) if at least 10 keys changed
82 # after 60 sec if at least 10000 keys changed
84 # Note: you can disable saving at all commenting all the "save" lines.
86 # It is also possible to remove all the previously configured save
87 # points by adding a save directive with a single empty string argument
88 # like in the following example:
96 # By default Redis will stop accepting writes if RDB snapshots are enabled
97 # (at least one save point) and the latest background save failed.
98 # This will make the user aware (in an hard way) that data is not persisting
99 # on disk properly, otherwise chances are that no one will notice and some
100 # distater will happen.
102 # If the background saving process will start working again Redis will
103 # automatically allow writes again.
105 # However if you have setup your proper monitoring of the Redis server
106 # and persistence, you may want to disable this feature so that Redis will
107 # continue to work as usually even if there are problems with disk,
108 # permissions, and so forth.
109 stop-writes-on-bgsave-error yes
111 # Compress string objects using LZF when dump .rdb databases?
112 # For default that's set to 'yes' as it's almost always a win.
113 # If you want to save some CPU in the saving child set it to 'no' but
114 # the dataset will likely be bigger if you have compressible values or keys.
117 # Since verison 5 of RDB a CRC64 checksum is placed at the end of the file.
118 # This makes the format more resistant to corruption but there is a performance
119 # hit to pay (around 10%) when saving and loading RDB files, so you can disable it
120 # for maximum performances.

123 # tell the loading code to skip the check.
126 # The filename where to dump the DB
129 # The working directory.
131 # The DB will be written inside this directory, with the filename specified
132 # above using the 'dbfilename' configuration directive.
134 # Also the Append Only File will be created inside this directory.
136 # Note that you must specify a directory here, not a file name.
139 ################################# REPLICATION #################################
141 # Master-Slave replication. Use slaveof to make a Redis instance a copy of
142 # another Redis server. Note that the configuration is local to the slave
143 # so for example it is possible to configure the slave to save the DB with a
144 # different interval, or to listen to another port, and so on.
146 # slaveof <masterip> <masterport>
148 # If the master is password protected (using the "requirepass" configuration
149 # directive below) it is possible to tell the slave to authenticate before
150 # starting the replication synchronization process, otherwise the master will
151 # refuse the slave request.
153 # masterauth <master-password>
155 # When a slave lost the connection with the master, or when the replication
156 # is still in progress, the slave can act in two different ways:
158 # 1) if slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'yes' (the default) the slave will
159 # still reply to client requests, possibly with out of date data, or the
160 # data set may just be empty if this is the first synchronization.
162 # 2) if slave-serve-stale data is set to 'no' the slave will reply with
163 # an error "SYNC with master in progress" to all the kind of commands
164 # but to INFO and SLAVEOF.
166 slave-serve-stale-data yes
168 # You can configure a slave instance to accept writes or not. Writing against
169 # a slave instance may be useful to store some ephemeral data (because data
170 # written on a slave will be easily deleted after resync with the master) but
171 # may also cause problems if clients are writing to it because of a
174 # Since Redis 2.6 by default slaves are read-only.
176 # Note: read only slaves are not designed to be exposed to untrusted clients
177 # on the internet. It's just a protection layer against misuse of the instance.
178 # Still a read only slave exports by default all the administrative commands
179 # such as CONFIG, DEBUG, and so forth. To a limited extend you can improve
180 # security of read only slaves using 'rename-command' to shadow all the
181 # administrative / dangerous commands.
184 # Slaves send PINGs to server in a predefined interval. It's possible to change
185 # this interval with the repl_ping_slave_period option. The default value is 10
188 # repl-ping-slave-period 10
190 # The following option sets a timeout for both Bulk transfer I/O timeout and
191 # master data or ping response timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
193 # It is important to make sure that this value is greater than the value
194 # specified for repl-ping-slave-period otherwise a timeout will be detected
195 # every time there is low traffic between the master and the slave.
199 ################################## SECURITY ###################################
201 # Require clients to issue AUTH <PASSWORD> before processing any other
202 # commands. This might be useful in environments in which you do not trust
203 # others with access to the host running redis-server.
205 # This should stay commented out for backward compatibility and because most
206 # people do not need auth (e.g. they run their own servers).
208 # Warning: since Redis is pretty fast an outside user can try up to
209 # 150k passwords per second against a good box. This means that you should
210 # use a very strong password otherwise it will be very easy to break.
212 # requirepass foobared
216 # It is possible to change the name of dangerous commands in a shared
217 # environment. For instance the CONFIG command may be renamed into something
218 # of hard to guess so that it will be still available for internal-use
219 # tools but not available for general clients.
223 # rename-command CONFIG b840fc02d524045429941cc15f59e41cb7be6c52
225 # It is also possible to completely kill a command renaming it into

230 ################################### LIMITS ####################################
232 # Set the max number of connected clients at the same time. By default
233 # this limit is set to 10000 clients, however if the Redis server is not
234 # able ot configure the process file limit to allow for the specified limit
235 # the max number of allowed clients is set to the current file limit
236 # minus 32 (as Redis reserves a few file descriptors for internal uses).
238 # Once the limit is reached Redis will close all the new connections sending
239 # an error 'max number of clients reached'.
243 # Don't use more memory than the specified amount of bytes.
244 # When the memory limit is reached Redis will try to remove keys
245 # accordingly to the eviction policy selected (see maxmemmory-policy).
247 # If Redis can't remove keys according to the policy, or if the policy is
248 # set to 'noeviction', Redis will start to reply with errors to commands
249 # that would use more memory, like SET, LPUSH, and so on, and will continue
250 # to reply to read-only commands like GET.
252 # This option is usually useful when using Redis as an LRU cache, or to set
253 # an hard memory limit for an instance (using the 'noeviction' policy).
255 # WARNING: If you have slaves attached to an instance with maxmemory on,
256 # the size of the output buffers needed to feed the slaves are subtracted
257 # from the used memory count, so that network problems / resyncs will
258 # not trigger a loop where keys are evicted, and in turn the output
259 # buffer of slaves is full with DELs of keys evicted triggering the deletion
260 # of more keys, and so forth until the database is completely emptied.
262 # In short... if you have slaves attached it is suggested that you set a lower
263 # limit for maxmemory so that there is some free RAM on the system for slave
264 # output buffers (but this is not needed if the policy is 'noeviction').
268 # MAXMEMORY POLICY: how Redis will select what to remove when maxmemory
269 # is reached? You can select among five behavior:
271 # volatile-lru -> remove the key with an expire set using an LRU algorithm
272 # allkeys-lru -> remove any key accordingly to the LRU algorithm
273 # volatile-random -> remove a random key with an expire set
274 # allkeys-random -> remove a random key, any key
275 # volatile-ttl -> remove the key with the nearest expire time (minor TTL)
276 # noeviction -> don't expire at all, just return an error on write operations
278 # Note: with all the kind of policies, Redis will return an error on write
279 # operations, when there are not suitable keys for eviction.
281 # At the date of writing this commands are: set setnx setex append
282 # incr decr rpush lpush rpushx lpushx linsert lset rpoplpush sadd
283 # sinter sinterstore sunion sunionstore sdiff sdiffstore zadd zincrby
284 # zunionstore zinterstore hset hsetnx hmset hincrby incrby decrby
285 # getset mset msetnx exec sort
289 # maxmemory-policy volatile-lru
291 # LRU and minimal TTL algorithms are not precise algorithms but approximated
292 # algorithms (in order to save memory), so you can select as well the sample
293 # size to check. For instance for default Redis will check three keys and
294 # pick the one that was used less recently, you can change the sample size
295 # using the following configuration directive.
297 # maxmemory-samples 3
299 ############################## APPEND ONLY MODE ###############################
301 # By default Redis asynchronously dumps the dataset on disk. If you can live
302 # with the idea that the latest records will be lost if something like a crash
303 # happens this is the preferred way to run Redis. If instead you care a lot
304 # about your data and don't want to that a single record can get lost you should
305 # enable the append only mode: when this mode is enabled Redis will append
306 # every write operation received in the file appendonly.aof. This file will
307 # be read on startup in order to rebuild the full dataset in memory.
309 # Note that you can have both the async dumps and the append only file if you
310 # like (you have to comment the "save" statements above to disable the dumps).
311 # Still if append only mode is enabled Redis will load the data from the
312 # log file at startup ignoring the dump.rdb file.
314 # IMPORTANT: Check the BGREWRITEAOF to check how to rewrite the append
315 # log file in background when it gets too big.
319 # The name of the append only file (default: "appendonly.aof")
320 # appendfilename appendonly.aof
322 # The fsync() call tells the Operating System to actually write data on disk
323 # instead to wait for more data in the output buffer. Some OS will really flush
324 # data on disk, some other OS will just try to do it ASAP.
326 # Redis supports three different modes:
328 # no: don't fsync, just let the OS flush the data when it wants. Faster.
329 # always: fsync after every write to the append only log . Slow, Safest.
330 # everysec: fsync only if one second passed since the last fsync. Compromise.
332 # The default is "everysec" that's usually the right compromise between
333 # speed and data safety. It's up to you to understand if you can relax this to
334 # "no" that will let the operating system flush the output buffer when
335 # it wants, for better performances (but if you can live with the idea of
336 # some data loss consider the default persistence mode that's snapshotting),
337 # or on the contrary, use "always" that's very slow but a bit safer than
340 # If unsure, use "everysec".
346 # When the AOF fsync policy is set to always or everysec, and a background
347 # saving process (a background save or AOF log background rewriting) is
348 # performing a lot of I/O against the disk, in some Linux configurations
349 # Redis may block too long on the fsync() call. Note that there is no fix for
350 # this currently, as even performing fsync in a different thread will block
351 # our synchronous write(2) call.
353 # In order to mitigate this problem it's possible to use the following option
354 # that will prevent fsync() from being called in the main process while a
355 # BGSAVE or BGREWRITEAOF is in progress.
357 # This means that while another child is saving the durability of Redis is
358 # the same as "appendfsync none", that in practical terms means that it is
359 # possible to lost up to 30 seconds of log in the worst scenario (with the
360 # default Linux settings).
362 # If you have latency problems turn this to "yes". Otherwise leave it as
363 # "no" that is the safest pick from the point of view of durability.
364 no-appendfsync-on-rewrite no
366 # Automatic rewrite of the append only file.
367 # Redis is able to automatically rewrite the log file implicitly calling
368 # BGREWRITEAOF when the AOF log size will growth by the specified percentage.
370 # This is how it works: Redis remembers the size of the AOF file after the
371 # latest rewrite (or if no rewrite happened since the restart, the size of
372 # the AOF at startup is used).
374 # This base size is compared to the current size. If the current size is
375 # bigger than the specified percentage, the rewrite is triggered. Also
376 # you need to specify a minimal size for the AOF file to be rewritten, this
377 # is useful to avoid rewriting the AOF file even if the percentage increase
378 # is reached but it is still pretty small.

388 # Max execution time of a Lua script in milliseconds.
390 # If the maximum execution time is reached Redis will log that a script is
391 # still in execution after the maximum allowed time and will start to
392 # reply to queries with an error.
394 # When a long running script exceed the maximum execution time only the
395 # SCRIPT KILL and SHUTDOWN NOSAVE commands are available. The first can be
396 # used to stop a script that did not yet called write commands. The second
397 # is the only way to shut down the server in the case a write commands was
398 # already issue by the script but the user don't want to wait for the natural
399 # termination of the script.
401 # Set it to 0 or a negative value for unlimited execution without warnings.
404 # By default variables in a Lua script are global, this means that a correct
405 # script must declare all the local variables explicitly using the 'local'
406 # keyword. Lua beginners are known to violate this rule, polluting the global
407 # namespace, or creating scripts that may fail under certain conditions, for
408 # this reason by default Redis installs a protection that will raise an error
409 # every time a script attempts to access a global variable that was not
410 # explicitly declared via global().
412 # It's worth to note that normal Redis scripts should never use globals, but
413 # we don't entirely disable the possibility because from time to time crazy
414 # things in the right hands can be pretty powerful.
416 # Globals protection may result into a minor performance hint, so it is

421 ################################## SLOW LOG ###################################
423 # The Redis Slow Log is a system to log queries that exceeded a specified
424 # execution time. The execution time does not include the I/O operations
425 # like talking with the client, sending the reply and so forth,
426 # but just the time needed to actually execute the command (this is the only
427 # stage of command execution where the thread is blocked and can not serve
428 # other requests in the meantime).
430 # You can configure the slow log with two parameters: one tells Redis
431 # what is the execution time, in microseconds, to exceed in order for the
432 # command to get logged, and the other parameter is the length of the
433 # slow log. When a new command is logged the oldest one is removed from the
434 # queue of logged commands.
436 # The following time is expressed in microseconds, so 1000000 is equivalent
437 # to one second. Note that a negative number disables the slow log, while
438 # a value of zero forces the logging of every command.
439 slowlog-log-slower-than 10000
441 # There is no limit to this length. Just be aware that it will consume memory.
442 # You can reclaim memory used by the slow log with SLOWLOG RESET.

450 hash-max-ziplist-entries 512
451 hash-max-ziplist-value 64

472 # Active rehashing uses 1 millisecond every 100 milliseconds of CPU time in
473 # order to help rehashing the main Redis hash table (the one mapping top-level
474 # keys to values). The hash table implementation Redis uses (see dict.c)
475 # performs a lazy rehashing: the more operation you run into an hash table
476 # that is rehashing, the more rehashing "steps" are performed, so if the
477 # server is idle the rehashing is never complete and some more memory is used
480 # The default is to use this millisecond 10 times every second in order to
481 # active rehashing the main dictionaries, freeing memory when possible.
484 # use "activerehashing no" if you have hard latency requirements and it is
485 # not a good thing in your environment that Redis can reply form time to time

495 # publisher can produce them).

499 # normal -> normal clients
500 # slave -> slave clients and MONITOR clients
501 # pubsub -> clients subcribed to at least one pubsub channel or pattern
503 # The syntax of every client-output-buffer-limit directive is the following:

507 # A client is immediately disconnected once the hard limit is reached, or if
508 # the soft limit is reached and remains reached for the specified number of
509 # seconds (continuously).
510 # So for instance if the hard limit is 32 megabytes and the soft limit is
511 # 16 megabytes / 10 seconds, the client will get disconnected immediately
512 # if the size of the output buffers reach 32 megabytes, but will also get
513 # disconnected if the client reaches 16 megabytes and continuously overcomes
514 # the limit for 10 seconds.
516 # By default normal clients are not limited because they don't receive data
517 # without asking (in a push way), but just after a request, so only
518 # asynchronous clients may create a scenario where data is requested faster
521 # Instead there is a default limit for pubsub and slave clients, since
