Rdi Db Reqs - Redis — ContextQMD

Redis Enterprise v6.4 or greater for the cluster.
For production, 250MB RAM with one primary and one replica is recommended, but for the quickstart or for development, 125MB and a single shard is sufficient.
If you are deploying RDI for a production environment then secure this database with a password and TLS.
Set the database's [eviction policy]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/memory-performance/eviction-policy" >}}) to noeviction. Note that you can't set this using [rladmin]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/cli-utilities/rladmin" >}}), so you must either do it using the admin UI or with the following [REST API]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api" >}}) command:
bash
```
curl -v -k -d '{"eviction_policy": "noeviction"}' \
  -u '<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>' \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -X PUT https://<CLUSTER_FQDN>:9443/v1/bdbs/<BDB_UID>
```
Set the database's [data persistence]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/configure/database-persistence" >}}) to AOF - fsync every 1 sec. Note that you can't set this using [rladmin]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/cli-utilities/rladmin" >}}), so you must either do it using the admin UI or with the following [REST API]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api" >}}) commands:
bash
```
curl -v -k -d '{"data_persistence":"aof"}' \
  -u '<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>' \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" 
  -X PUT https://<CLUSTER_FQDN>:9443/v1/bdbs/<BDB_UID>
curl -v -k -d '{"aof_policy":"appendfsync-every-sec"}' \
  -u '<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>' \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -X PUT https://<CLUSTER_FQDN>:9443/v1/bdbs/<BDB_UID>
```
Ensure that the RDI database is not clustered. RDI will not work correctly if the RDI database is clustered (but note that the target database can be clustered without any problems).

If the Database clustering option is checked when you create the RDI database (as shown below), you must uncheck it before proceeding.

You can check if your RDI database is clustered from its Configuration tab in the Redis Enterprise console. The Database clustering option should be set to None, as shown in the following screenshot:

{{< image filename="images/rdi/ingest/RDICheckUnclustered.webp" alt="Check that the RDI database is not clustered." >}}

If you find the database has been clustered by mistake, you must create a new database with clustering disabled before continuing with the RDI installation.
