How to restart Redis in Linux?

@gillian 

There are a few different ways to restart Redis in Linux, depending on how it was installed and how you want to restart it. Here are three options:

1. If Redis was installed using a package manager (e.g. apt-get, yum), you can use the systemctl command to restart the Redis service:

1

sudo systemctl restart redis

1. If Redis was installed manually (e.g. by compiling the source code), you can use the redis-cli command to issue a SHUTDOWN RESTART command to the Redis server:

1

redis-cli SHUTDOWN RESTART

1. If you want to stop and start the Redis server manually, you can use the redis-cli command to issue a SHUTDOWN command to stop the server, and then start the server by running the redis-server command:

1
2

redis-cli SHUTDOWN
redis-server

Keep in mind that you will need to have the appropriate permissions to restart Redis, and you may need to use sudo to execute the commands as the root user.

Additionally, if you want to restart Redis in a specific configuration file, you can use the following command:

1

redis-server /path/to/redis.conf

Replace "/path/to/redis.conf" with the actual path to your Redis configuration file. This command will start Redis using the specified configuration file.

Remember to adjust the commands according to your specific installation and system configuration.
