remote redis instance

[andrewm659]

While trying to configure nautobot I am editing the /opt/nautobot/.nautobot/nautobot_config.py file. But I"m not sure where the redis settings should be.

I get the following error:

[nautobot@dcim001 ~]$ nautobot-server createsuperuser
Username: admin
/opt/nautobot/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/cacheops/redis.py:19: RuntimeWarning: The cacheops cache is unreachable! Error: Error 111 connecting to localhost:6379. Connection refused.
  warnings.warn("The cacheops cache is unreachable! Error: %s" % e, RuntimeWarning)
Email address: ^C
Operation cancelled

Currently my config looks like this:

CACHEOPS_REDIS = os.getenv("NAUTOBOT_CACHEOPS_REDIS", "redis://10.150.10.135:6379")

# The django-redis cache is used to establish concurrent locks using Redis. The
# django-rq settings will use the same instance/database by default.
CACHES = {
    "default": {
        "BACKEND": "django_redis.cache.RedisCache",
        "LOCATION": "redis://10.150.10.135:6379",
        "TIMEOUT": 300,
        "OPTIONS": {
            "CLIENT_CLASS": "django_redis.client.DefaultClient",
        },
    }
}

Am I doing something wrong?

Your nautobot config is likely in the wrong spot, by default it should be /opt/nautobot/nautobot_config.py unless you set the NAUTOBOT_CONFIG environment variable.
