Magento 1.9.2.4 + Redis

Question

I am currently running Magento 1.9.2.4 + Redis. And I want to dubbel check my current settings.

Therefore I changed my local.xml with <full_page_cache><backend>Cm_Cache_Backend_Redis</backend></full_page_cache>.

But after that I wrote that it is better for Magento 1.8+ to use <full_page_cache><backend>Mage_Cache_Backend_Redis</backend></full_page_cache> am I right?

Should I enable Cm_RedisSession.xml inside app/etc/modules? Because that is disabled by default.

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

You should enable the Cm_RedisSession if you plan on storing session data in redis. It is however not necessary for cache.
