st2actionrunner talk to redis question

[guzzijones]

how does the st2actionrunner know what ip and port the redis server is running on? I would expect some sort of environment variable passed into the action runner container but I don't see that. Is the redis port somehow mapped to all pods?

thanks @fdrab for your input. the st2 services are having problems locating the redis master. any help you or other people can provide is appreciated.

error message for st2api. my st2scheduler has the similar error message of not able to locate redis master

here is my setup for redis st2 conf file:

    [coordination]
    url = redis://default:password@redis-headless.redis-dev.svc.cluster.local:26379?sentinel=master

redis values.yaml

  ## @param sentinel.masterSet Master set name
  ##
  masterSet: master

in st2client pod, using redis-cli, i was able to locate my redis master

root@stackstorm-st2client-bb9b4c57c-zt7z7:/opt/stackstorm# redis-cli -h redis-headless.redis-dev.svc.cluster.local -p 26379

redis-headless.redis-dev.svc.cluster.local:26379> auth password
OK

redis-headless.redis-dev.svc.cluster.local:26379> sentinel masters
1)  1) "name"
    2) "master"
    3) "ip"
    4) "redis-node-0.redis-headless.redis-dev.svc.cluster.local"
    5) "port"
    6) "6379"

can't say I'm an expert on any of this, what does your redis section of the values.yaml look like?
