Redis Blocked Clients

Clients becoming blocked due to slow operations (e.g., large BLPOP or BRPOP operations) or commands that block the Redis server, leading to service disruptions.

Redis Excessive Swap Usage

Redis swapping to disk, which significantly slows down performance since Redis is designed to operate in-memory.

Redis Redis Queue Build-up

A large backlog of commands or pending writes, indicating the server is overwhelmed and unable to process commands efficiently.

Redis Error Logs

Frequent error messages in Redis logs indicating problems like memory fragmentation, failed replication, or persistence errors.

Redis Long-running Commands

Commands such as FLUSHALL, KEYS, or large SORT operations taking a long time to complete, blocking other operations.

Redis Cluster Sharding Issues

In a Redis cluster, issues with shard rebalancing, node failures, or communication errors between nodes can degrade performance and reliability.

Redis Key Expiry Issues

Unexpected or frequent expiry of keys leading to missing data, often due to poor key management or unexpected TTL configurations.

Redis Frequent Crashes or Restarts

Redis crashing or restarting unexpectedly, possibly due to memory fragmentation, configuration issues, or hardware limitations.

Redis Out-of-Memory Errors

Redis returning out-of-memory (OOM) errors when it cannot allocate more memory for operations, leading to failed commands.

Redis Disk I/O Bottlenecks

High disk I/O when persistence (AOF or RDB) is enabled, which can impact overall performance if the disk is slow or heavily used.

Redis Slow Replication

Significant replication lag between the master and replicas in a Redis cluster, leading to outdated or inconsistent data.

Redis Latency Spikes

Unpredictable latency spikes in command execution, often due to background save operations (forking) or disk I/O issues.

Redis High Network Traffic

Redis consuming a large amount of network bandwidth, potentially causing network congestion or slowdowns in communication with clients.

Redis Slow Responses

Commands taking longer than usual to execute, indicating performance bottlenecks.

Redis Data Persistence Problems

Issues with Redis persistence mechanisms (RDB or AOF) such as failed saves, long save times, or corrupted snapshots.

Redis Connection Issues

Connection timeouts or refusal of new connections due to high load, connection limits, or network issues.

Redis High CPU Usage

The Redis server consuming excessive CPU, often due to inefficient command usage, large data operations, or lack of optimization.

Redis Frequent Evictions

High rates of key evictions due to the server running out of memory, potentially leading to data loss if not managed properly.

Redis LOOP Detected infinite loop

Redis detected an infinite loop, typically in Lua scripting.

Redis Memory Exhaustion

Redis hitting the configured memory limit, leading to evictions (if configured), errors, or crashes.

Redis CROSSSLOT Keys in request don't hash to the same slot

In cluster mode, keys must be located in the same hash slot, and this error occurs when they are not.

Redis MASTER_TIMEOUT No reply from the master

The replica did not receive a reply from the master within the configured timeout period.

Redis SYNCWITHACK Redis could not synchronize with the master

Synchronization between the replica and the master failed.

Redis BUSYKEY Target key name already exists

The target key already exists and the command cannot overwrite it.

Redis AUTH authentication failed

The authentication attempt failed due to an incorrect password.

Redis NOAUTH Authentication required

The client attempted to execute a command without authentication when Redis is password-protected.

Redis NOGOODSLAVE No good slave available for failover

Redis cannot promote any slave to master due to a lack of healthy replicas.

Redis EXECABORT Transaction discarded because of previous errors

The transaction (MULTI/EXEC) was aborted due to a prior error.

Redis TRYAGAIN Command cannot be processed, please try again

A temporary condition prevents the command from being processed (used in cluster mode).

Redis MOVED key moved to another node

The key has been moved to another node in the Redis cluster (used in cluster mode).

Redis ERR Command not allowed

The command is disabled in the current configuration (e.g., protected mode).

Redis ASK redirection to a different node

The client is being redirected to a different node in the cluster (used in cluster mode).

Redis NOREPLICAS Not enough replicas available for the write operation

Redis could not find enough replicas to satisfy the write operation.

Redis MISCONF Redis is configured to save the dataset, but is currently unable to do so

Misconfiguration prevents Redis from saving data.

Redis WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value

The operation was attempted on a key that holds a value of the wrong type (e.g., using a list command on a string key).

Redis LOADING Redis is loading the dataset in memory

Redis is currently loading the dataset and cannot respond to commands.

Redis MASTERDOWN Link with MASTER is down and slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'no'

The replica cannot serve stale data because the link to the master is down.

Redis READONLY You can't write against a read-only replica

The Redis replica is in read-only mode, and write operations are not permitted.

Redis CLUSTERDOWN The cluster is down

The Redis cluster is unavailable due to issues with cluster nodes.

Redis OOM command not allowed when used memory > 'maxmemory'

Redis has exceeded the configured memory limit and cannot execute the command.

Redis NOSCRIPT No matching script

The specified Lua script does not exist in Redis.

Redis ERR Operation timed out

The operation took too long to complete.

Redis BUSY Redis is busy running a script

Redis is busy running a Lua script, and the command cannot be processed.

Redis ERR Protocol error

Protocol error, such as an invalid command format, occurred.

Redis ERR max number of clients reached

The maximum number of clients allowed to connect to Redis has been reached.

Redis ERR out of memory

Redis ran out of memory based on its maxmemory configuration.

Redis ERR no such key

The specified key does not exist in Redis.

Redis ERR key exists

The key already exists when trying to set it with NX.

Redis ERR wrong number of arguments

Incorrect number of arguments supplied for a command.

Redis ERR hash value is not a string

Expected a string, but received something else in a hash operation.

Redis ERR unknown command

The specified Redis command is unknown or invalid.

Redis ERR value is not an integer

Expected an integer value, but received something else.

Redis ERR syntax error

The syntax of the Redis command is incorrect.

Redis ERR

General error for various issues.

Redis ERR operation not permitted

Operation not allowed, typically due to security settings.
