mkdir /etc/redis
cp redis.conf /etc/redis
create /etc/systemd/system/redis.service – e.g.
[Unit] Description=Redis After=network.target [Service] User=redis Group=redis ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/redis-server /etc/redis/redis.conf ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/redis-cli shutdown Restart=always [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
now you need to diff your redis.conf – password, persistence, binding, etc.
when you are ready to move … (or to test, see ExecStart)
systemctl enable redis
