Talk:Redis cache store

"If you are configuring a cluster of Moodle servers/nodes, the Redis service (daemon) should be installed on an external server and all Moodle nodes (servers/instances) should point to that external Redis. so all user's data is available when the user is using (connected to) any of the Moodle nodes, in case the user's connection is not persistent (sticky) to a specific node for the entire Moodle session."

This bit is not really correct, unless you meant only session cache: in case the user's connection is not persistent (sticky) to a specific node for the entire Moodle session

In the "Configuring Redis in Moodle" section it says:

"Under "Stores used when no mapping is present" click Edit mappings". Set "Redis1" (or the name used earlier) for the "Application" and "Session" caches."

But what about the "Request" cache section. Something needs to be said about the "Request" cache . What do you specify for the "Request" cache? If nothing is required then this wiki should say so and offer an explanation why. (I don't know so I can't write it.) If it is optional then this wiki should say so.

And what do you do in Redis, after you've installed it, to get it ready to receive caching requests from Moodle? In other words, what do you do after you've run the "sudo apt-get install redis-server" command? What other configuration do you need to do in Redis so that it can accept requests from Moodle?
