Commands
redis
REPLICAOF master_ip 6379 # Set master REPLICAOF NO ONE # Promote to master INFO replication # Check status
Sentinel (Auto-Failover)
Architecture

Troubleshooting
Replica Not Syncing
redis
INFO replication # Check master_link_status
Fix: Check network, password, and firewall
Split-Brain Prevention
conf
min-replicas-to-write 1 min-replicas-max-lag 10
Failover Not Triggering
Check: Quorum (need majority of Sentinels)
Error Codes
| Code | Name | Recovery |
|---|---|---|
| R001 | MASTERDOWN | Check master or failover |
| R002 | SYNC_FAILED | Check network/auth |
| R003 | QUORUM_LOST | Restore Sentinel majority |
