Is Redis Persistence Enabled?

Question

Is there any way to check, from an active session, whether a Redis server has persistence (e.g. RDB persistence) enabled? The INFO command does contain a section on persistence, but it is not clear to me whether the values indicate that persistence is turned on.

Answer 1

There are two type of persistance, RDB and AOF.

1. Check is RDB persistence enabled:
   redis-cli CONFIG GET save RDB persistence enabled if it return something like that:

1) "save"
2) "900 1 300 10 60 10000"

RDB persistence disabled if you get empty result:

1) "save"
2) ""

2. To check is AOF persistence enabled, invoke:

   redis-cli CONFIG GET appendonly

If you get yes - it's enabled, no - disabled.
