using different database at redis command prompt - redis

dThe following works as expected. But how do I insert the data into forth database instead of default "0" from command prompt?
# echo -n "testing" | /home/shantanu/redis-2.4.2/src/redis-cli -x set my_pass
OK
# echo -n "testing" | /home/shantanu/redis-2.4.2/src/redis-cli -x select 4; set my_pass
(error) ERR wrong number of arguments for 'select' command


Just use the -n argument to choose DB number. It available since Redis 2.4.2.
echo -n "testing" | redis-cli -n 4 -x set my_pass
or
redis-cli -n 4 set my_pass testing


Launch the CLI by issuing command:
redis-cli
Then use the following command:
select <db number>
For example:
select 4

Pass arguments for SQL statement in a shell file from another shell file through ssh command

I am passing command line arguments to a shell file i.e assignRole.sh which contains an SQL command which will use these arguments like below
ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -T $key < /oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh name open_mode >> /oracle/oracle_user/dftest.txt
This gives me error and does not accept arguments of name and open_mode and gives error, but if I execute the statement outside of ssh command like:
/oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh name open_mode
This runs fine
What is the problem with ssh command and how should I adjust these parameters so these can be accepted for the shell script assignRole.sh

< /oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh
This commands sends a content of that file to stdin. So obviously it can't process variables that you haven't send to remote machine. Just preprocess your script or create a script on remote machine and call it with arguments
Though it's even easier to pass variables like this:
ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -T $key "var1=$var1 var2=$var2" < /oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh name open_mode >> /oracle/oracle_user/dftest.txt
For example my function for executing update scripts on all cluster nodes:
# functions:
ssh_exec(){
local DESCR="$1"; shift
local SCRIPT="$1"; shift
local hosts=("$#")
echo =================================================
echo = $DESCR
echo = Going to execute $SCRIPT...
read -a res -p "Enter 'skip' to skip this step or press Enter to execute: "
if [[ $res = "skip" ]]
then
echo Skipping $SCRIPT...
else
echo Executing $SCRIPT...
for host in "${hosts[#]}"
do
local cur=${!host}
echo Executing $SCRIPT on $host - $cur...
sshpass -p "$rootpass" ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" root#${cur} \
"ns1=$ns1 ns2=$ns2 search=$search zoo1=$zoo1 zoo2=$zoo2 zoo3=$zoo3 node0=$node0 pass=$pass CURIP=$cur CURHOST=$host bash -s" \
<$SCRIPT >log-$SCRIPT-$cur.log 2>&1
echo Done.
done
echo =================================================
fi
}
Then I use it like this:
read -p "Please check that Solr started successfully and Press [Enter] key to continue..."
#Solr configset and collections:
ssh_exec "Solr configset and collections" script06.sh zoo1 zoo2 zoo3
This command executes script06.sh on 3 servers (zoo1,zoo2,zoo3)

As Sayan said, using < redirects the output of running the assignRole.sh script locally, but you want to execute that script on the remote host, with the arguments.
Pass the whole command as the final argument to ssh, in quotes:
ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -T $key "/oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh name open_mode" >> /oracle/oracle_user/dftest.txt
or split into multiple lines for readability:
ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -T $key \
"/oracle/oracle_user/makhshif/./assignRole.sh name open_mode" \
>> /oracle/oracle_user/dftest.txt

Redis: (error) ERR unknown command 'redis-benchmark'

I'm trying to run some redis benchmark tests, but they're all giving the same error, unknown command redis-benchmark:
C:\>redis-cli
127.0.0.1:6379> redis-benchmark -t set,get -r 1000000 -q
(error) ERR unknown command 'redis-benchmark'

You cannot run the redis-benchmark command inside a redis-cli shell. It's not part of the redis-cli commands. Try a regular prompt instead:
Not working:
C:\>redis-cli
127.0.0.1:6379> redis-benchmark -t set,get -r 1000000 -q
Working:
C:\>redis-benchmark -t set,get -r 1000000 -q
Outputs something like:
SET: 111856.82 requests per second
GET: 108225.10 requests per second

Terminal shortcut for deleting keys on a redis instance

I have a development redis instance and I'm trying to create a terminal shortcut to quickly delete: All Keys in DB 10 starting with the word FORUM.
I've tried to create this alias in my bash_profile:
redis-cli -h [XXX] -p [XXX] -a [XXX] SELECT 10 KEYS "forum:*" | xargs redis-cli -h [XXX] -p [XXX] -a [XXX] SELECT 10 DEL
but that doesn't work (err msg: wrong nbr of arguments for SELECT).

You can pass a single command to the CLI so chaining the SELECT with KEYS/DEL results in an error.
Instead, use the -n switch to have redis-cli select database 10.

Copy all keys from one db to another in redis

Instade of move I want to copy all my keys from a particular db to another.
Is it possible in redis if yes than how ?

If you can't use MIGRATE COPY because of your redis version (2.6) you might want to copy each key separately which takes longer but doesn't require you to login to the machines themselves and allows you to move data from one database to another.
Here's how I copy all keys from one database to another (but without preserving ttls)
#set connection data accordingly
source_host=localhost
source_port=6379
source_db=0
target_host=localhost
target_port=6379
target_db=1
#copy all keys without preserving ttl!
redis-cli -h $source_host -p $source_port -n $source_db keys \* | while read key; do
echo "Copying $key"
redis-cli --raw -h $source_host -p $source_port -n $source_db DUMP "$key" \
| head -c -1 \
| redis-cli -x -h $target_host -p $target_port -n $target_db RESTORE "$key" 0
done
Keys are not going to be overwritten, in order to do that, delete those keys before copying or simply flush the whole target database before starting.

Copies all keys from database number 0 to database number 1 on localhost.
redis-cli --scan | xargs redis-cli migrate localhost 6379 '' 1 0 copy keys
If you use the same server/port you will get a timeout error but the keys seem to copy successfully anyway. GitHub Redis issue #1903

redis-cli -a $source_password -p $source_port -h $source_ip keys /*| while read key;
do echo "Copying $key";
redis-cli --raw -a $source_password -h $source_ip -p $source_port -n $dbname DUMP "$key"| head -c -1| redis-cli -x -a $destination_password -h $destination_IP -p $destination_port RESTORE "$key" 0;

Latest solution:
Use the RIOT open-source command line tool provided by Redislabs to copy the data.

RIOT is quicker, supports multithreading, and works well with cross-environment Redis data copy ( AWS Elasticache, Redis OSS, and Redislabs ).

Not directly. I would suggest to use the always convenient redis-rdb-tools package (from Sripathi Krishnan) to extract the data from a normal rdb dump, and reinject it to another instance.
See https://github.com/sripathikrishnan/redis-rdb-tools

As far as I understand you need to copy keys from a particular DB (e.g 5 ) to a particular DB say 10. If that is the case you can use redis database dumper (https://github.com/r043v/rdd). Although as per documentation it has a switch (-d) to select a database for operation but didn't work for me, so what I did
1.) Edit the rdd.c file and look for int main(int argc,char argv) function
2.) Change the DB to as per your requirement
3.) compile the src by **make
4.) Dump all keys using ./rdd -o "save.rdd"
5.) Edit the rdd.c file again and change the DB
6.) Make again
7.) Import by using ./rdd "save.rdd" -o insert -s "IP" -p"Port"

I know this is old, but for those of you coming here form Google:
I just published a command line interface utility to npm and github that allows you to copy keys that match a given pattern (even *) from one Redis database to another.
You can find the utility here:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/redis-utils-cli

Try using dump to first dump all the keys and then restore the same

If migrating keys inside of the same redis engine, then you might use internal command MOVE for that (pipelining for more speed):
#!/bin/bash
#set connection data accordingly
source_host=localhost
source_port=6379
source_db=4
target_db=0
total=$(redis-cli -n 4 keys \* | sed 's/^/MOVE /g' | sed 's/$/ '$target_db'/g' | wc -c)
#copy all keys without preserving ttl!
time redis-cli -h $source_host -p $source_port -n $source_db keys \* | \
sed 's/^/MOVE /g' | sed 's/$/ 0/g' | \
pv -s $total | \
redis-cli -h $source_host -p $source_port -n $source_db >/dev/null

Pipe data to redis

When I pipe the echo to redis client, I get an error.
[root#server ~]$ echo "abc43345" | redis-cli set my_passwd2
(error) ERR wrong number of arguments for 'set' command
But the following works as expected.
[root#server ~]$ redis-cli set my_passwd2 `echo "abc43345"`
OK
Is there any way to make the first example work?

It can actually be achieved using "-x" flag
echo "abc43345" | redis-cli -x set my_passwd2
