編輯:SyBase教程

redis一個比較大的改變,redis3.0.1穩定版本發布,支持集群。redis集群配置reidsCluster


先說一下在配置的流程和遇到的一些問題:

安裝redis

$ wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-3.0.1.tar.gz
$ tar xzf redis-3.0.1.tar.gz
$ cd redis-3.0.1
$ make
$ src/redis-server
$ src/redis-cli
redis> set 11 22
OK
redis> get 11
"22" 

配置redis.conf 修改如下參數

 

port 6379
cluster-enabled yes
cluster-config-file nodes.conf
cluster-node-timeout 5000
appendonly yes

 

進入到redis目錄下,注意:

mkdir cluster-test
cd cluster-test
mkdir 6379 6380 6381 6382 6383 6384 #這裡需要注意,最少是6個,copy之前修改的redis.conf 文件到對應的文件夾中,修改每個conf中的端口號
cd 6379
../redis-server ./redis.conf #啟動redis實例

Ok,redis這邊先不管了,接下來需要裝幾個有依賴的軟件,如下操作必須使用系統管理員(root)進行登陸和安裝:

安裝 Ruby

檢查是否已經安裝過:rpm -qa |grep ruby 有:rpm -e 軟件名 無:繼續下面

安裝ruby(安裝ruby到 /usr/local/ruby):

$mkdir /usr/local/ruby
$wget http://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.2/ruby-2.2.2.tar.gz $tar -xzvf ruby-2.2.2.tar.gz

	
$cd ruby-2.2.2 

 


$./configure -prefix=/usr/local/ruby
$make
$make install
$cp ruby /usr/local/bin
$ruby -v #驗證是不是安裝成功 
ruby 2.2.2p95 (2015-04-13 revision 50295) [x86_64-linux]

	

 

安裝 Ruby Gems (https://rubygems.org/pages/download)

 

$wget http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-2.4.7.tgz
$tar -xzvf rubygems-2.4.7.tgz
$cd rubygems-2.4.7
$ruby setup.rb
$cp bin/gem /usr/local/bin
$gem  -v

 

依賴的軟件安裝完成,接下來開始創建集群 (Creating the cluster)

$cd /data/redis-3.0.1/src
$./redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 127.0.0.1:6379 127.0.0.1:6380 127.0.0.1:6381 127.0.0.1:6382 127.0.0.1:6383 127.0.0.1:6384
$..... [OK] All 16384 slots covered #最後提示這樣的語句表示成功

在執行上面的時候可能會提示如下錯誤:

/opt/cluster_test/redis-unstable/src# src/redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 127.0.0.1:6379 127.0.0.1:6380 127.0.0.1:6381127.0.0.1:6382127.0.0.1:6383 127.0.0.1:6384
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': cannot load such file -- redis (LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
from /opt/cluster_test/redis-unstable/src/redis-trib.rb:25:in `
'

研究了很久,發現ruby是要訪問redis的,但是並沒有安裝redis的第三方小插件,所以需要在gems中安裝redis的訪問接口:

gem install redis --version 3.0.0  
#由於源的原因,可能下載失敗,就手動下載下來安裝   
#download地址:http://rubygems.org/gems/redis/versions/3.0.0   
gem install -l /data/soft/redis-3.0.0.gem  

安裝的時候報錯了吧,提示說什麼 Zlib 沒找到什麼的:

 

gem install redis
ERROR:  Loading command: install (LoadError)
    no such file to load -- zlib
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NameError)
    uninitialized constant Gem::Commands::InstallCommand

 

解決辦法是:

 

進入ruby源碼文件夾 
安裝ruby自身提供的zlib包 
#cd ext/zlib
#ruby ./extconf.rb
#make
#make install

 

結束,可以盡情的玩了:

$ redis-cli -c -p 6379
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> set foo bar
-> Redirected to slot [12182] located at 127.0.0.1:6380
OK
redis 127.0.0.1:6380> set hello world
-> Redirected to slot [866] located at 127.0.0.1:6381
OK
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> get foo
-> Redirected to slot [12182] located at 127.0.0.1:6382
"bar"
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> get hello
-> Redirected to slot [866] located at 127.0.0.1:7379
"world" 

 

如上是今天安裝的全過程,其中卡在zlib這裡和在gems這裡浪費了很多時間,在此記錄下,各位大神如有用到,有問題也可與我交流 QQ:154833488。

下面是官網的介紹和配置的使用:

Redis cluster tutorial

This document is a gentle introduction to Redis Cluster, that does not use complex to understand distributed systems concepts. It provides instructions about how to setup a cluster, test, and operate it, without going into the details that are covered in the Redis Cluster specification but just describing how the system behaves from the point of view of the user.

However this tutorial tries to provide information about the availability and consistency characteristics of Redis Cluster from the point of view of the final user, stated in a simple to understand way.

Note this tutorial requires Redis version 3.0 or higher.

If you plan to run a serious Redis Cluster deployment, the more formal specification is a suggested reading, even if not strictly required. However it is a good idea to start from this document, play with Redis Cluster some time, and only later read the specification.

*Redis Cluster 101

Redis Cluster provides a way to run a Redis installation where data is automatically sharded across multiple Redis nodes.

Redis Cluster also provides some degree of availability during partitions, that is in practical terms the ability to continue the operations when some nodes fail or are not able to communicate. However the cluster stops to operate in the event of larger failures (for example when the majority of masters are unavailable).

So in practical terms, what you get with Redis Cluster?

The ability to automatically split your dataset among multiple nodes.The ability to continue operations when a subset of the nodes are experiencing failures or are unable to communicate with the rest of the cluster.

*Redis Cluster TCP ports

Every Redis Cluster node requires two TCP connections open. The normal Redis TCP port used to serve clients, for example 6379, plus the port obtained by adding 10000 to the data port, so 16379 in the example.

This second high port is used for the Cluster bus, that is a node-to-node communication channel using a binary protocol. The Cluster bus is used by nodes for failure detection, configuration update, failover authorization and so forth. Clients should never try to communicate with the cluster bus port, but always with the normal Redis command port, however make sure you open both ports in your firewall, otherwise Redis cluster nodes will be not able to communicate.

The command port and cluster bus port offset is fixed and is always 10000.

Note that for a Redis Cluster to work properly you need, for each node:

The normal client communication port (usually 6379) used to communicate with clients to be open to all the clients that need to reach the cluster, plus all the other cluster nodes (that use the client port for keys migrations).The cluster bus port (the client port + 10000) must be reachable from all the other cluster nodes.

If you don't open both TCP ports, your cluster will not work as expected.

The cluster bus uses a different, binary protocol, for node to node data exchange, which is more suited to exchange information between nodes using little bandwidth and processing time.

*Redis Cluster data sharding

Redis Cluster does not use consistent hashing, but a different form of sharding where every key is conceptually part of what we call anhash slot.

There are 16384 hash slots in Redis Cluster, and to compute what is the hash slot of a given key, we simply take the CRC16 of the key modulo 16384.

Every node in a Redis Cluster is responsible of a subset of the hash slots, so for example you may have a cluster with 3 nodes, where:

Node A contains hash slots from 0 to 5500. Node B contains hash slots from 5501 to 11000. Node C contains hash slots from 11001 to 16384.

This allows to add and remove nodes in the cluster easily. For example if I want to add a new node D, I need to move some hash slot from nodes A, B, C to D. Similarly if I want to remove node A from the cluster I can just move the hash slots served by A to B and C. When the node A will be empty I can remove it from the cluster completely.

Because moving hash slots from a node to another does not require to stop operations, adding and removing nodes, or changing the percentage of hash slots hold by nodes, does not require any downtime.

Redis Cluster supports multiple key operations as long as all the keys involved into a single command execution (or whole transaction, or Lua script execution) all belong to the same hash slot. The user can force multiple keys to be part of the same hash slot by using a concept called hash tags.

Hash tags are documented in the Redis Cluster specification, but the gist is that if there is a substring between {} brackets in a key, only what is inside the string is hashed, so fo examplethis{foo}key andanother{foo}key are guaranteed to be in the same hash slot, and can be used together in a command with multiple keys as arguments.

*Redis Cluster master-slave model

In order to remain available when a subset of master nodes are failing or are not able to communicate with the majority of nodes, Redis Cluster uses a master-slave model where every hash slot has from 1 (the master itself) to N replicas (N-1 additional slaves nodes).

In our example cluster with nodes A, B, C, if node B fails the cluster is not able to continue, since we no longer have a way to serve hash slots in the range 5501-11000.

However if when the cluster is created (or at a latter time) we add a slave node to every master, so that the final cluster is composed of A, B, C that are masters nodes, and A1, B1, C1 that are slaves nodes, the system is able to continue if node B fails.

Node B1 replicates B, and B fails, the cluster will promote node B1 as the new master and will continue to operate correctly.

However note that if nodes B and B1 fail at the same time Redis Cluster is not able to continue to operate.

*Redis Cluster consistency guarantees

Redis Cluster is not able to guarantee strong consistency. In practical terms this means that under certain conditions it is possible that Redis Cluster will lose writes that were acknowledged by the system to the client.

The first reason why Redis Cluster can lose writes is because it uses asynchronous replication. This means that during writes the following happens:

Your client writes to the master B. The master B replies OK to your client. The master B propagates the write to its slaves B1, B2 and B3.

As you can see B does not wait for an acknowledge from B1, B2, B3 before replying to the client, since this would be a prohibitive latency penalty for Redis, so if your client writes something, B acknowledges the write, but crashes before being able to send the write to its slaves, one of the slaves (that did not received the write) can be promoted to master, losing the write forever.

This is very similar to what happens with most databases that are configured to flush data to disk every second, so it is a scenario you are already able to reason about because of past experiences with traditional database systems not involving distributed systems. Similarly you can improve consistency by forcing the database to flush data on disk before replying to the client, but this usually results into prohibitively low performances. That would be the equivalent of synchronous replication in the case of Redis Cluster.

Basically there is a trade-off to take between performances and consistency.

Redis Cluster has support for synchronous writes when absolutely needed, implemented via theWAIT command, this makes losing writes a lot less likely, however note that Redis Cluster does not implement strong consistency even when synchronous replication is used: it is always possible under more complex failure scenarios that a slave that was not able to receive the write is elected as master.

There is another notable scenario where Redis Cluster will lose writes, that happens during a network partition where a client is isolated with a minority of instances including at least a master.

Take as an example our 6 nodes cluster composed of A, B, C, A1, B1, C1, with 3 masters and 3 slaves. There is also a client, that we will call Z1.

After a partition occurs, it is possible that in one side of the partition we have A, C, A1, B1, C1, and in the other side we have B and Z1.

Z1 is still able to write to B, that will accept its writes. If the partition heals in a very short time, the cluster will continue normally. However if the partition lasts enough time for B1 to be promoted to master in the majority side of the partition, the writes that Z1 is sending to B will be lost.

Note that there is a maximum window to the amount of writes Z1 will be able to send to B: if enough time has elapsed for the majority side of the partition to elect a slave as master, every master node in the minority side stops accepting writes.

This amount of time is a very important configuration directive of Redis Cluster, and is called thenode timeout.

After node timeout has elapsed, a master node is considered to be failing, and can be replaced by one of its replicas. Similarly after node timeout has elapsed without a master node to be able to sense the majority of the other master nodes, it enters an error state and stops accepting writes.

*Redis Cluster configuration parameters

We are about to create an example cluster deployment. Before to continue let's introduce the configuration parameters that Redis Cluster introduces in theredis.conf file. Some will be obvious, others will be more clear as you continue reading.

cluster-enabled : If yes enables Redis Cluster support in a specific Redis instance. Otherwise the instance starts as a stand alone instance as usually.cluster-config-file : Note that despite the name of this option, this is not an user editable configuration file, but the file where a Redis Cluster node automatically persists the cluster configuration (the state, basically) every time there is a change, in order to be able to re-read it at startup. The file lists things like the other nodes in the cluster, their state, persistent variables, and so forth. Often this file is rewritten and flushed on disk as a result of some message reception. cluster-node-timeout : The maximum amount of time a Redis Cluster node can be unavailable, without it being considered as failing. If a master node is not reachable for more than the specified amount of time, it will be failed over by its slaves. This parameter controls other important things in Redis Cluster. Notably, every node that can't reach the majority of master nodes for the specified amount of time, will stop accepting queries.cluster-slave-validity-factor : If set to zero, a slave will always try to failover a master, regardless of the amount of time the link between the master and the slave remained disconnected. If the value is positive, a maximum disconnection time is calculated as the node timeout value multiplied by the factor provided with this option, and if the node is a slave, it will not try to start a failover if the master link was disconnected for more than the specified amount of time. For example if the node timeout is set to 5 seconds, and the validity factor is set to 10, a slave disconnected from the master for more than 50 seconds will not try to failover its master. Note that any value different than zero may result in Redis Cluster to be not available after a master failure if there is no slave able to failover it. In that case the cluster will return back available only when the original master rejoins the cluster.cluster-migration-barrier : Minimum number of slaves a master will remain connected with, for another slave to migrate to a master which is no longer covered by any slave. See the appropriate section about replica migration in this tutorial for more information. cluster-require-full-coverage : If this is set to yes, as it is by default, the cluster stops accepting writes if some percentage of the key space is not covered by any node. If the option is set to no, the cluster will still serve queries even if only requests about a subset of keys can be processed.

*Creating and using a Redis Cluster

Note: to deploy a Redis Cluster manually is very important to learn certain operation aspects of it. However if you want to get a cluster up and running ASAP skip this section and the next one and go directly toCreating a Redis Cluster using the create-cluster script.

To create a cluster, the first thing we need is to have a few empty Redis instances running incluster mode. This basically means that clusters are not created using normal Redis instances, but a special mode needs to be configured so that the Redis instance will enable the Cluster specific features and commands.

The following is a minimal Redis cluster configuration file:

port 7000
cluster-enabled yes
cluster-config-file nodes.conf
cluster-node-timeout 5000
appendonly yes

As you can see what enables the cluster mode is simply the cluster-enabled directive. Every instance also contains the path of a file where the configuration for this node is stored, that by default isnodes.conf. This file is never touched by humans, it is simply generated at startup by the Redis Cluster instances, and updated every time it is needed.

Note that the minimal cluster that works as expected requires to contain at least three master nodes. For your first tests it is strongly suggested to start a six nodes cluster with three masters and three slaves.

To do so, enter a new directory, and create the following directories named after the port number of the instance we'll run inside any given directory.

Something like:

mkdir cluster-test
cd cluster-test
mkdir 7000 7001 7002 7003 7004 7005

Create a redis.conf file inside each of the directories, from 7000 to 7005. As a template for your configuration file just use the small example above, but make sure to replace the port number7000 with the right port number according to the directory name.

Now copy your redis-server executable, compiled from the latest sources in the unstable branch at GitHub, into thecluster-test directory, and finally open 6 terminal tabs in your favorite terminal application.

Start every instance like that, one every tab:

cd 7000
../redis-server ./redis.conf

As you can see from the logs of every instance, since no nodes.conf file existed, every node assigns itself a new ID.

[82462] 26 Nov 11:56:55.329 * No cluster configuration found, I'm 97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1

This ID will be used forever by this specific instance in order for the instance to have a unique name in the context of the cluster. Every node remembers every other node using this IDs, and not by IP or port. IP addresses and ports may change, but the unique node identifier will never change for all the life of the node. We call this identifier simplyNode ID.

*Creating the cluster

Now that we have a number of instances running, we need to create our cluster by writing some meaningful configuration to the nodes.

This is very easy to accomplish as we are helped by the Redis Cluster command line utility calledredis-trib, that is a Ruby program executing special commands in the instances in order to create new clusters, check or reshard an existing cluster, and so forth.

The redis-trib utility is in the src directory of the Redis source code distribution. To create your cluster simply type:

./redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 127.0.0.1:7000 127.0.0.1:7001 \
127.0.0.1:7002 127.0.0.1:7003 127.0.0.1:7004 127.0.0.1:7005

The command used here is create, since we want to create a new cluster. The option--replicas 1 means that we want a slave for every master created. The other arguments are the list of addresses of the instances I want to use to create the new cluster.

Obviously the only setup with our requirements is to create a cluster with 3 masters and 3 slaves.

Redis-trib will propose you a configuration. Accept typing yes. The cluster will be configured andjoined, that means, instances will be bootstrapped into talking with each other. Finally if everything went ok you'll see a message like that:

[OK] All 16384 slots covered

This means that there is at least a master instance serving each of the 16384 slots available.

*Creating a Redis Cluster using the create-cluster script

If you don't want to create a Redis Cluster by configuring and executing individual instances manually as explained above, there is a much simpler system (but you'll not learn the same amount of operational details).

Just check utils/create-cluster directory in the Redis distribution. There is a script calledcreate-cluster inside (same name as the directory it is contained into), it's a simple bash script. In order to start a 6 nodes cluster with 3 masters and 3 slaves just type the following commands:

create-cluster start create-cluster create

Reply to yes in step 2 when the redis-trib utility wants you to accept the cluster layout.

You can now interact with the cluster, the first node will start at port 30001 by default. When you are done, stop the cluster with:

create-cluster stop.

Please read the README inside this directory for more information on how to run the script.

*Playing with the cluster

At this stage one of the problems with Redis Cluster is the lack of client libraries implementations.

I'm aware of the following implementations:

redis-rb-cluster is a Ruby implementation written by me (@antirez) as a reference for other languages. It is a simple wrapper around the original redis-rb, implementing the minimal semantics to talk with the cluster efficiently. redis-py-cluster A port of redis-rb-cluster to Python. Supports majority ofredis-py functionality. Is in active development.The popular Predis has support for Redis Cluster, the support was recently updated and is in active development.The most used Java client, Jedis recently added support for Redis Cluster, see the Jedis Cluster section in the project README.StackExchange.Redis offers support for C# (and should work fine with most .NET languages; VB, F#, etc)thunk-redis offers support for Node.js and io.js, it is a thunk/promise-based redis client with pipelining and cluster.The redis-cli utility in the unstable branch of the Redis repository at GitHub implements a very basic cluster support when started with the-c switch.

An easy way to test Redis Cluster is either to try any of the above clients or simply theredis-cli command line utility. The following is an example of interaction using the latter:

$ redis-cli -c -p 7000
redis 127.0.0.1:7000> set foo bar
-> Redirected to slot [12182] located at 127.0.0.1:7002
OK
redis 127.0.0.1:7002> set hello world
-> Redirected to slot [866] located at 127.0.0.1:7000
OK
redis 127.0.0.1:7000> get foo
-> Redirected to slot [12182] located at 127.0.0.1:7002
"bar"
redis 127.0.0.1:7000> get hello
-> Redirected to slot [866] located at 127.0.0.1:7000
"world"

Note: if you created the cluster using the script your nodes may listen to different ports, starting from 30001 by default.

The redis-cli cluster support is very basic so it always uses the fact that Redis Cluster nodes are able to redirect a client to the right node. A serious client is able to do better than that, and cache the map between hash slots and nodes addresses, to directly use the right connection to the right node. The map is refreshed only when something changed in the cluster configuration, for example after a failover or after the system administrator changed the cluster layout by adding or removing nodes.

*Writing an example app with redis-rb-cluster

Before going forward showing how to operate the Redis Cluster, doing things like a failover, or a resharding, we need to create some example application or at least to be able to understand the semantics of a simple Redis Cluster client interaction.

In this way we can run an example and at the same time try to make nodes failing, or start a resharding, to see how Redis Cluster behaves under real world conditions. It is not very helpful to see what happens while nobody is writing to the cluster.

This section explains some basic usage of redis-rb-cluster showing two examples. The first is the following, and is theexample.rb file inside the redis-rb-cluster distribution:

     1  require './cluster'
     2
     3  startup_nodes = [
     4      {:host => "127.0.0.1", :port => 7000},
     5      {:host => "127.0.0.1", :port => 7001}
     6  ]
     7  rc = RedisCluster.new(startup_nodes,32,:timeout => 0.1)
     8
     9  last = false
    10
    11  while not last
    12      begin
    13          last = rc.get("__last__")
    14          last = 0 if !last
    15      rescue => e
    16          puts "error #{e.to_s}"
    17          sleep 1
    18      end
    19  end
    20
    21  ((last.to_i+1)..1000000000).each{|x|
    22      begin
    23          rc.set("foo#{x}",x)
    24          puts rc.get("foo#{x}")
    25          rc.set("__last__",x)
    26      rescue => e
    27          puts "error #{e.to_s}"
    28      end
    29      sleep 0.1
    30  }

The application does a very simple thing, it sets keys in the form foo tonumber, one after the other. So if you run the program the result is the following stream of commands:

SET foo0 0 SET foo1 1 SET foo2 2 And so forth...

The program looks more complex than it should usually as it is designed to show errors on the screen instead of exiting with an exception, so every operation performed with the cluster is wrapped bybeginrescue blocks.

The line 7 is the first interesting line in the program. It creates the Redis Cluster object, using as argument a list ofstartup nodes, the maximum number of connections this object is allowed to take against different nodes, and finally the timeout after a given operation is considered to be failed.

The startup nodes don't need to be all the nodes of the cluster. The important thing is that at least one node is reachable. Also note that redis-rb-cluster updates this list of startup nodes as soon as it is able to connect with the first node. You should expect such a behavior with any other serious client.

Now that we have the Redis Cluster object instance stored in the rc variable we are ready to use the object like if it was a normal Redis object instance.

This is exactly what happens in line 11 to 19: when we restart the example we don't want to start again withfoo0, so we store the counter inside Redis itself. The code above is designed to read this counter, or if the counter does not exist, to assign it the value of zero.

However note how it is a while loop, as we want to try again and again even if the cluster is down and is returning errors. Normal applications don't need to be so careful.

Lines between 21 and 30 start the main loop where the keys are set or an error is displayed.

Note the sleep call at the end of the loop. In your tests you can remove the sleep if you want to write to the cluster as fast as possible (relatively to the fact that this is a busy loop without real parallelism of course, so you'll get the usually 10k ops/second in the best of the conditions).

Normally writes are slowed down in order for the example application to be easier to follow by humans.

Starting the application produces the following output:

ruby ./example.rb

^C (I stopped the program here)

This is not a very interesting program and we'll use a better one in a moment but we can already try what happens during a resharding when the program is running.

*Resharding the cluster

Now we are ready to try a cluster resharding. To do this please keep the example.rb program running, so that you can see if there is some impact on the program running. Also you may want to comment thesleep call in order to have some more serious write load during resharding.

Resharding basically means to move hash slots from a set of nodes to another set of nodes, and like cluster creation it is accomplished using the redis-trib utility.

To start a resharding just type:

./redis-trib.rb reshard 127.0.0.1:7000

You only need to specify a single node, redis-trib will find the other nodes automatically.

Currently redis-trib is only able to reshard with the administrator support, you can't just say move 5% of slots from this node to the other one (but this is pretty trivial to implement). So it starts with questions. The first is how much a big resharding do you want to do:

How many slots do you want to move (from 1 to 16384)?

We can try to reshard 1000 hash slots, that should already contain a non trivial amount of keys if the example is still running without the sleep call.

Then redis-trib needs to know what is the target of the resharding, that is, the node that will receive the hash slots. I'll use the first master node, that is, 127.0.0.1:7000, but I need to specify the Node ID of the instance. This was already printed in a list by redis-trib, but I can always find the ID of a node with the following command if I need:

$ redis-cli -p 7000 cluster nodes | grep myself
97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 :0 myself,master - 0 0 0 connected 0-5460

Ok so my target node is 97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1.

Now you'll get asked from what nodes you want to take those keys. I'll just typeall in order to take a bit of hash slots from all the other master nodes.

After the final confirmation you'll see a message for every slot that redis-trib is going to move from a node to another, and a dot will be printed for every actual key moved from one side to the other.

While the resharding is in progress you should be able to see your example program running unaffected. You can stop and restart it multiple times during the resharding if you want.

At the end of the resharding, you can test the health of the cluster with the following command:

./redis-trib.rb check 127.0.0.1:7000

All the slots will be covered as usually, but this time the master at 127.0.0.1:7000 will have more hash slots, something around 6461.

*Scripting a resharding operation

Reshardings can be performed automatically without the need to manually enter the parameters in an interactive way. This is possible using a command line like the following:

./redis-trib.rb reshard : --from  --to  --slots --yes

This allows to build some automatism if you are likely to reshard often, however currently there is no way forredis-trib to automatically rebalance the cluster checking the distribution of keys across the cluster nodes and intelligently moving slots as needed. This feature will be added in the future.

*A more interesting example application

The example application we wrote early is not very good. It writes to the cluster in a simple way without even checking if what was written is the right thing.

From our point of view the cluster receiving the writes could just always write the keyfoo to42 to every operation, and we would not notice at all.

So in the redis-rb-cluster repository, there is a more interesting application that is calledconsistency-test.rb. It uses a set of counters, by default 1000, and sendsINCR commands in order to increment the counters.

However instead of just writing, the application does two additional things:

When a counter is updated using INCR, the application remembers the write. It also reads a random counter before every write, and check if the value is what we expected it to be, comparing it with the value it has in memory.

What this means is that this application is a simple consistency checker, and is able to tell you if the cluster lost some write, or if it accepted a write that we did not received acknowledgment for. In the first case we'll see a counter having a value that is smaller than the one we remember, while in the second case the value will be greater.

Running the consistency-test application produces a line of output every second:

$ ruby consistency-test.rb
925 R (0 err) | 925 W (0 err) |
5030 R (0 err) | 5030 W (0 err) |
9261 R (0 err) | 9261 W (0 err) |
13517 R (0 err) | 13517 W (0 err) |
17780 R (0 err) | 17780 W (0 err) |
22025 R (0 err) | 22025 W (0 err) |
25818 R (0 err) | 25818 W (0 err) |

The line shows the number of Reads and Writes performed, and the number of errors (query not accepted because of errors since the system was not available).

If some inconsistency is found, new lines are added to the output. This is what happens, for example, if I reset a counter manually while the program is running:

$ redis 127.0.0.1:7000> set key_217 0
OK

(in the other tab I see...)

94774 R (0 err) | 94774 W (0 err) |
98821 R (0 err) | 98821 W (0 err) |
102886 R (0 err) | 102886 W (0 err) | 114 lost |
107046 R (0 err) | 107046 W (0 err) | 114 lost |

When I set the counter to 0 the real value was 144, so the program reports 144 lost writes (INCR commands that are not remembered by the cluster).

This program is much more interesting as a test case, so we'll use it to test the Redis Cluster failover.

*Testing the failover

Note: during this test, you should take a tab open with the consistency test application running.

In order to trigger the failover, the simplest thing we can do (that is also the semantically simplest failure that can occur in a distributed system) is to crash a single process, in our case a single master.

We can identify a cluster and crash it with the following command:

$ redis-cli -p 7000 cluster nodes | grep master
3e3a6cb0d9a9a87168e266b0a0b24026c0aae3f0 127.0.0.1:7001 master - 0 1385482984082 0 connected 5960-10921
2938205e12de373867bf38f1ca29d31d0ddb3e46 127.0.0.1:7002 master - 0 1385482983582 0 connected 11423-16383
97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 :0 myself,master - 0 0 0 connected 0-5959 10922-11422

Ok, so 7000, 7001, and 7002 are masters. Let's crash node 7002 with the DEBUG SEGFAULT command:

$ redis-cli -p 7002 debug segfault
Error: Server closed the connection

Now we can look at the output of the consistency test to see what it reported.

18849 R (0 err) | 18849 W (0 err) |
23151 R (0 err) | 23151 W (0 err) |
27302 R (0 err) | 27302 W (0 err) |

... many error warnings here ...

29659 R (578 err) | 29660 W (577 err) |
33749 R (578 err) | 33750 W (577 err) |
37918 R (578 err) | 37919 W (577 err) |
42077 R (578 err) | 42078 W (577 err) |

As you can see during the failover the system was not able to accept 578 reads and 577 writes, however no inconsistency was created in the database. This may sound unexpected as in the first part of this tutorial we stated that Redis Cluster can lost writes during the failover because it uses asynchronous replication. What we did not said is that this is not very likely to happen because Redis sends the reply to the client, and the commands to replicate to the slaves, about at the same time, so there is a very small window to lose data. However the fact that it is hard to trigger does not mean that it is impossible, so this does not change the consistency guarantees provided by Redis cluster.

We can now check what is the cluster setup after the failover (note that in the meantime I restarted the crashed instance so that it rejoins the cluster as a slave):

$ redis-cli -p 7000 cluster nodes
3fc783611028b1707fd65345e763befb36454d73 127.0.0.1:7004 slave 3e3a6cb0d9a9a87168e266b0a0b24026c0aae3f0 0 1385503418521 0 connected
a211e242fc6b22a9427fed61285e85892fa04e08 127.0.0.1:7003 slave 97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 0 1385503419023 0 connected
97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 :0 myself,master - 0 0 0 connected 0-5959 10922-11422
3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 127.0.0.1:7005 master - 0 1385503419023 3 connected 11423-16383
3e3a6cb0d9a9a87168e266b0a0b24026c0aae3f0 127.0.0.1:7001 master - 0 1385503417005 0 connected 5960-10921
2938205e12de373867bf38f1ca29d31d0ddb3e46 127.0.0.1:7002 slave 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 0 1385503418016 3 connected

Now the masters are running on ports 7000, 7001 and 7005. What was previously a master, that is the Redis instance running on port 7002, is now a slave of 7005.

The output of the CLUSTER NODES command may look intimidating, but it is actually pretty simple, and is composed of the following tokens:

Node ID ip:port flags: master, slave, myself, fail, ... if it is a slave, the Node ID of the master Time of the last pending PING still waiting for a reply. Time of the last PONG received. Configuration epoch for this node (see the Cluster specification). Status of the link to this node. Slots served...

*Manual failover

Sometimes it is useful to force a failover without actually causing any problem on a master. For example in order to upgrade the Redis process of one of the master nodes it is a good idea to failover it in order to turn it into a slave with minimal impact on availability.

Manual failovers are supported by Redis Cluster using the CLUSTER FAILOVER command, that must be executed in one of the slaves of the master you want to failover.

Manual failovers are special and are safer compared to failovers resulting from actual master failures, since they occur in a way that avoid data loss in the process, by switching clients from the original master to the new master only when the system is sure that the new master processed all the replication stream from the old one.

This is what you see in the slave log when you perform a manual failover:

# Manual failover user request accepted.
# Received replication offset for paused master manual failover: 347540
# All master replication stream processed, manual failover can start.
# Start of election delayed for 0 milliseconds (rank #0, offset 347540).
# Starting a failover election for epoch 7545.
# Failover election won: I'm the new master.

Basically clients connected to the master we are failing over are stopped. At the same time the master sends its replication offset to the slave, that waits to reach the offset on its side. When the replication offset is reached, the failover starts, and the old master is informed about the configuration switch. When the clients are unblocked on the old master, they are redirected to the new master.

*Adding a new node

Adding a new node is basically the process of adding an empty node and then moving some data into it, in case it is a new master, or telling it to setup as a replica of a known node, in case it is a slave.

We'll show both, starting with the addition of a new master instance.

In both cases the first step to perform is adding an empty node.

This is as simple as to start a new node in port 7006 (we already used from 7000 to 7005 for our existing 6 nodes) with the same configuration used for the other nodes, except for the port number, so what you should do in order to conform with the setup we used for the previous nodes:

Create a new tab in your terminal application. Enter the cluster-test directory. Create a directory named 7006. Create a redis.conf file inside, similar to the one used for the other nodes but using 7006 as port number.Finally start the server with ../redis-server ./redis.conf

At this point the server should be running.

Now we can use redis-trib as usually in order to add the node to the existing cluster.

./redis-trib.rb add-node 127.0.0.1:7006 127.0.0.1:7000

As you can see I used the addnode command specifying the address of the new node as first argument, and the address of a random existing node in the cluster as second argument.

In practical terms redis-trib here did very little to help us, it just sent a CLUSTER MEET message to the node, something that is also possible to accomplish manually. However redis-trib also checks the state of the cluster before to operate, so it is a good idea to perform cluster operations always via redis-trib even when you know how the internals work.

Now we can connect to the new node to see if it really joined the cluster:

redis 127.0.0.1:7006> cluster nodes
3e3a6cb0d9a9a87168e266b0a0b24026c0aae3f0 127.0.0.1:7001 master - 0 1385543178575 0 connected 5960-10921
3fc783611028b1707fd65345e763befb36454d73 127.0.0.1:7004 slave 3e3a6cb0d9a9a87168e266b0a0b24026c0aae3f0 0 1385543179583 0 connected
f093c80dde814da99c5cf72a7dd01590792b783b :0 myself,master - 0 0 0 connected
2938205e12de373867bf38f1ca29d31d0ddb3e46 127.0.0.1:7002 slave 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 0 1385543178072 3 connected
a211e242fc6b22a9427fed61285e85892fa04e08 127.0.0.1:7003 slave 97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 0 1385543178575 0 connected
97a3a64667477371c4479320d683e4c8db5858b1 127.0.0.1:7000 master - 0 1385543179080 0 connected 0-5959 10922-11422
3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 127.0.0.1:7005 master - 0 1385543177568 3 connected 11423-16383

Note that since this node is already connected to the cluster it is already able to redirect client queries correctly and is generally speaking part of the cluster. However it has two peculiarities compared to the other masters:

It holds no data as it has no assigned hash slots. Because it is a master without assigned slots, it does not participate in the election process when a slave wants to become a master.

Now it is possible to assign hash slots to this node using the resharding feature ofredis-trib. It is basically useless to show this as we already did in a previous section, there is no difference, it is just a resharding having as a target the empty node.

*Adding a new node as a replica

Adding a new Replica can be performed in two ways. The obvious one is to use redis-trib again, but with the --slave option, like this:

./redis-trib.rb add-node --slave 127.0.0.1:7006 127.0.0.1:7000

Note that the command line here is exactly like the one we used to add a new master, so we are not specifying to which master we want to add the replica. In this case what happens is that redis-trib will add the new node as replica of a random master among the masters with less replicas.

However you can specify exactly what master you want to target with your new replica with the following command line:

./redis-trib.rb add-node --slave --master-id 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 127.0.0.1:7006 127.0.0.1:7000

This way we assign the new replica to a specific master.

A more manual way to add a replica to a specific master is to add the new node as an empty master, and then turn it into a replica using theCLUSTER REPLICATE command. This also works if the node was added as a slave but you want to move it as a replica of a different master.

For example in order to add a replica for the node 127.0.0.1:7005 that is currently serving hash slots in the range 11423-16383, that has a Node ID 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e, all I need to do is to connect with the new node (already added as empty master) and send the command:

redis 127.0.0.1:7006> cluster replicate 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e

That's it. Now we have a new replica for this set of hash slots, and all the other nodes in the cluster already know (after a few seconds needed to update their config). We can verify with the following command:

$ redis-cli -p 7000 cluster nodes | grep slave | grep 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e
f093c80dde814da99c5cf72a7dd01590792b783b 127.0.0.1:7006 slave 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 0 1385543617702 3 connected
2938205e12de373867bf38f1ca29d31d0ddb3e46 127.0.0.1:7002 slave 3c3a0c74aae0b56170ccb03a76b60cfe7dc1912e 0 1385543617198 3 connected

The node 3c3a0c... now has two slaves, running on ports 7002 (the existing one) and 7006 (the new one).

*Removing a node

To remove a slave node just use the del-node command of redis-trib:

./redis-trib del-node 127.0.0.1:7000 ``

The first argument is just a random node in the cluster, the second argument is the ID of the node you want to remove.

You can remove a master node in the same way as well, however in order to remove a master node it must be empty. If the master is not empty you need to reshard data away from it to all the other master nodes before.

An alternative to remove a master node is to perform a manual failover of it over one of its slaves and remove the node after it turned into a slave of the new master. Obviously this does not help when you want to reduce the actual number of masters in your cluster, in that case, a resharding is needed.

*Replicas migration

In Redis Cluster it is possible to reconfigure a slave to replicate with a different master at any time just using the following command:

CLUSTER REPLICATE 

However there is a special scenario where you want replicas to move from one master to another one automatically, without the help of the system administrator. The automatic reconfiguration of replicas is calledreplicas migration and is able to improve the reliability of a Redis Cluster.

Note: you can read the details of replicas migration in the Redis Cluster Specification, here we'll only provide some information about the general idea and what you should do in order to benefit from it.

The reason why you may want to let your cluster replicas to move from one master to another under certain condition, is that usually the Redis Cluster is as resistant to failures as the number of replicas attached to a given slave.

For example a cluster where every master has a single replica can't continue operations if the master and its replica fail at the same time, simply because there is no other instance to have a copy of the hash slots the master was serving. However while netsplits are likely to isolate a number of nodes at the same time, many other kind of failures, like hardware or software failures local to a single node, are a very notable class of failures that are unlikely to happen at the same time, so it is possible that in your cluster where every master has a slave, the slave is killed at 4am, and the master is killed at 6am. This still will result in a cluster that can no longer operate.

To improve reliability of the system we have the option to add additional replicas to every master, but this is expensive. Replica migration allows to add more slaves to just a few masters. So you have 10 masters with 1 slave each, for a total of 20 instances. However you add, for example, 3 instances more as slaves of some of your masters, so certain masters will have more than a single slave.

With replicas migration what happens is that if a master is left without slaves, a replica from a master that has multiple slaves will migrate to theorphaned master. So after your slave goes down at 4am as in the example we made above, another slave will take its place, and when the master will fail as well at 5am, there is still a slave that can be elected so that the cluster can continue to operate.

So what you should know about replicas migration in short?

The cluster will try to migrate a replica from the master that has the greatest number of replicas in a given moment.To benefit from replica migration you have just to add a few more replicas to a single master in your cluster, it does not matter what master.There is a configuration parameter that controls the replica migration feature that is calledcluster-migration-barrier: you can read more about it in the exampleredis.conf file provided with Redis Cluster.

*Upgrading nodes in a Redis Cluster

Upgrading slave nodes is easy since you just need to stop the node and restart it with an updated version of Redis. If there are clients scaling reads using slave nodes, they should be able to reconnect to a different slave if a given one is not available.

Upgrading masters is a bit more complex, and the suggested procedure is:

Use CLUSTER FAILOVER to trigger a manual failover of the master to one of its slaves (see the "Manual failover" section of this documentation).Wait for the master to turn into a slave. Finally upgrade the node as you do for slaves. If you want the master to be the node you just upgraded, trigger a new manual failover in order to turn back the upgraded node into a master.

Following this procedure you should upgrade one node after the other until all the nodes are upgraded.

*Migrating to Redis Cluster

Users willing to migrate to Redis Cluster may have just a single master, or may already using a preexisting sharding setup, where keys are split among N nodes, using some in-house algorithm or a sharding algorithm implemented by their client library or Redis proxy.

In both cases it is possible to migrate to Redis Cluster easily, however what is the most important detail is if multiple-keys operations are used by the application, and how. There are three different cases:

Multiple keys operations, or transactions, or Lua scripts involving multiple keys, are not used. Keys are accessed independently (even if accessed via transactions or Lua scripts grouping multiple commands, about the same key, together).Multiple keys operations, transactions, or Lua scripts involving multiple keys are used but only with keys having the samehash tag, which means that the keys used together all have a{...} sub-string that happens to be identical. For example the following multiple keys operation is defined in the context of the same hash tag:SUNION {user:1000}.foo {user:1000}.bar.Multiple keys operations, transactions, or Lua scripts involving multiple keys are used with key names not having an explicit, or the same, hash tag.

The third case is not handled by Redis Cluster: the application requires to be modified in order to don't use multi keys operations or only use them in the context of the same hash tag.

Case 1 and 2 are covered, so we'll focus on those two cases, that are handled in the same way, so no distinction will be made in the documentation.

Assuming you have your preexisting data set split into N masters, where N=1 if you have no preexisting sharding, the following steps are needed in order to migrate your data set to Redis Cluster:

Stop your clients. No automatic live-migration to Redis Cluster is currently possible. You may be able to do it orchestrating a live migration in the context of your application / environment.Generate an append only file for all of your N masters using the BGREWRITEAOF command, and waiting for the AOF file to be completely generated.Save your AOF files from aof-1 to aof-N somewhere. At this point you can stop your old instances if you wish (this is useful since in non-virtualized deployments you often need to reuse the same computers).Create a Redis Cluster composed of N masters and zero slaves. You'll add slaves later. Make sure all your nodes are using the append only file for persistence.Stop all the cluster nodes, substitute their append only file with your pre-existing append only files, aof-1 for the first node, aof-2 for the second node, up to aof-N.Restart your Redis Cluster nodes with the new AOF files. They'll complain that there are keys that should not be there according to their configuration.Use redis-trib fix command in order to fix the cluster so that keys will be migrated according to the hash slots each node is authoritative or not.Use redis-trib check at the end to make sure your cluster is ok.Restart your clients modified to use a Redis Cluster aware client library.w

There is an alternative way to import data from external instances to a Redis Cluster, which is to use theredis-trib import command.

The command moves all the keys of a running instance (deleting the keys from the source instance) to the specified pre-existing Redis Cluster. However note that if you use a Redis 2.8 instance as source instance the operation may be slow since 2.8 does not implement migrate connection caching, so you may want to restart your source instance with a Redis 3.x version before to perform such operation.
