How can I automate Redis backup and restore processes?

You can automate Redis backup and restore using scripts and cron jobs. Would you like a sample script?

Yes, please provide a sample script for backing up Redis.

Here's a simple bash script:

#!/bin/bash

# Variables
REDIS_CLI=/usr/bin/redis-cli
BACKUP_DIR=/path/to/backup

# Create backup
$REDIS_CLI save
cp /var/lib/redis/dump.rdb $BACKUP_DIR/dump_$(date +%F).rdb

This script saves the Redis database and copies the dump file to your backup directory.

How do I set up a cron job for this script?

You can set up a cron job by running crontab -e and adding a line like this:

0 2 * * * /path/to/your/backup_script.sh

This will run the backup script every day at 2 AM.
