Installing Redis Manager on cPanel

Important: You must have a valid license to use Redis Manager. Installation requires a unique setup link provided in your activation email.
  1. Receive your installation package

    After purchasing, you'll receive an email with your unique installation instructions and license key.

  2. Prepare your server

    Ensure your cPanel server meets these requirements:

    • Root SSH access
    • Minimum 2GB RAM (4GB recommended)
    • cPanel & WHM installed
    • yum package manager available

  3. Complete the installation

    Follow the instructions in your activation email. The installer will automatically:

    • Install Redis server and dependencies
    • Configure Redis with optimal settings
    • Set up the cPanel plugin interface
    • Create necessary systemd services

  4. Access in cPanel

    After successful installation, Redis Manager will appear under "Software" in cPanel.

Note: Attempting to install without a valid license will result in a non-functional installation. Contact support@underhost.com if you need assistance.

Uninstalling Redis Manager

  1. Remove the plugin interface
    /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/uninstall_plugin /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/jupiter/redis_plugin --theme=jupiter
    rm -rf /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/jupiter/redis_plugin
  2. Optional: remove Redis server & data

    This will completely remove Redis from your system:

    yum remove redis -y
    rm -rf /etc/redis /var/lib/redis

Redis Manager Configuration

Redis Manager automatically configures each instance with optimal defaults:

bind = 127.0.0.1
maxmemory = 1536mb
maxmemory-policy = allkeys-lfu
databases = 5
requirepass = (auto-generated)

Advanced Configuration: These settings work well for most websites. If you need custom tuning, our support team can provide a configuration update script. Contact support@underhost.com for assistance. These global setting will also be updated via WHM plugins in a future release, also setting per accounts check our roadmap.
