Installing Redis

In the VM live migration, the memory dirty page rate impacts the live migration efficiency. To simulate a scenario with a high dirty page refresh rate, use Redis-benchmark to increase the pressure on the Redis server in the VM during VM live migration. The Redis version is 6.0.20. For details about how to compile and install it, see the document about installing Redis 6.0.20 by compiling the source code.

IP address of the virtual NIC needs to be specified in the /etc/redis.conf file of Redis.
