Getting ready…

You need to finish the installation of Redis Server as we described in the Downloading and installing Redis recipe in Chapter 1, Getting Started with Redis.

You also need to finish the Setting up Redis Cluster recipe in Chapter 7, Setting Up High Availability and Cluster, to learn the basic knowledge of Redis Cluster.

How to do it...

  1. First, let's start two Redis instances:
$ bin/redis-server conf/redis.conf
$ bin/redis-server conf/redis2.conf
$ ps -ef |grep redis-server
redis 361 32707 0 14:14 pts/5 00:00:00 grep redis-server
redis 21413 1 0 Dec10 ? 00:03:10 bin/redis-server 0.0.0.0:6379
redis 32762 1 0 14:13 ? 00:00:00 bin/redis...
