02:46:38 GMT <alex88> with BLPOP, assume a connection is waiting on pop, another lua script runs a push, will the lua script end before the blpop connection gets the value?
11:25:55 GMT <somaReverse> hi
11:26:08 GMT <somaReverse> how can I create a unique queue in redis?
11:26:16 GMT <somaReverse> is there a create queue command?
11:32:12 GMT <badboy_> push something onto a queue and it exists!
11:32:20 GMT <badboy_> what do you mean by "unique queue"?
11:34:50 GMT <somaReverse> i mean to create a queue that is currently not exist
11:35:00 GMT <somaReverse> s/is/does
11:38:31 GMT <badboy_> empty collections in redis don't exist. Once they contain at least one element they exist.
11:38:40 GMT <badboy_> you can't "create an empty queue"
11:48:09 GMT <somaReverse> if i have multiple clients using redis as concurrent queue, how can I make sure they all get different queues?
13:24:50 GMT <minus> generate random key names? doesn't make much sense but you're not quite precise on what you want to do either
14:16:40 GMT <Zeppelin_> anyone out there working on Redis know about encryption at rest?
15:13:50 GMT <bonsaikitten> Zeppelin_: why do you ask?
15:17:25 GMT <Zeppelin_> trying to figure out a way to secure data cached
15:17:40 GMT <Zeppelin_> so I can satisfy a security questiopn
15:22:36 GMT <badboy_> encrypt on write, decrypt on read.
15:22:46 GMT <badboy_> Redis itself is not good at encryption at all
15:53:35 GMT <fryguy> so, i have a redis instance on a server that is currently taking up a large portion of the ram (like 90%).  there is no persistence settings turned on and are trying to move it to another server.  BGSAVE hits swap basically immediately and I'm worried it'll take down the main redis-server process.  what sorts of options do I have to get the data of this instance written to disk?
16:14:49 GMT <fryguy> hrmm, ended up creating a replica server and BGSAVE-ing there
16:17:42 GMT <minus> \o/
