This was done with an older version of Ubuntu and probably wont work anymore.
This is a way to run multiple redis server on one ubuntu server.
These steps you have to do only once:
- Adjust init script
Change some Variables.
From this:
DAEMON_ARGS=/etc/redis/redis.conf
NAME=redis-server
DESC=redis-server
PIDFILE=/var/run/redis.pid
to this:
NAME=`basename ${0}`
DAEMON_ARGS=/etc/redis/${NAME}.conf
DESC=${NAME}
PIDFILE=/var/run/${NAME}.pid
- Move redis configuration
^
mv /etc/redis/redis.conf /etc/redis/redis-server.conf
These steps you have to do for every new redis server:
-
Copy configuration:
^
cp /etc/redis/redis-server.conf /etc/redis/redis-server2.conf -
In the
/etc/redis/redis-server2.confyou have to change at least this options:
^
pidfile /var/run/redis-server.pid
port 6379
logfile /var/log/redis/redis-server.log
dir /var/lib/redis
to this for example:
pidfile /var/run/redis-server2.pid
port 6380
logfile /var/log/redis/redis-server2.log
dir /var/lib/redis2
-
Symlink the init script:
^
ln -s /etc/init.d/redis-server /etc/init.d/redis-server2 -
Create working directory:
^
mkdir /var/lib/redis2; chown redis.redis /var/lib/redis2; -
Start server and add init script to system startup
^
/etc/init.d/redis-server2 start
update-rc.d redis-server2 defaults
