+
+ Since the 2.6 release a running Redis server instance is required for
+ caching objects to run. Also the following settings like below need to be
+ added (or modified) in the existing configuration.py:
+
+ REDIS = {
+ 'HOST': 'localhost',
+ 'PORT': 6397,
+ 'PASSWORD': ''
+ 'DATABASE': 0,
+ 'CACHE_DATABASE': 1,
+ 'DEFAULT_TIMEOUT': 300,
+ 'SSL': False,
+ }
+
+ Note that if you were using these settings in a prior release with
+ webhooks, the DATABASE setting remains the same but an additional
+ CACHE_DATABASE settings has been added with a default value of 1 to
+ support the caching backend.
+
+ The DATABASE setting will be renamed in a future release of NetBox to
+ better relay the meaning of the setting. It is highly recommended to keep
+ the webhook and cache databases separate. Using the same database number
+ for both may result in webhook processing data being lost during cache
+ flushing events.
+
+ Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
