Migrate Redis deployments (especially Bitnami Redis Helm charts in Sentinel HA mode) to Valkey on Kubernetes, including fully air-gapped clusters. Core knowledge: the RDB-version wall (Valkey replicates/loads only from Redis ≤ 7.2.x; Redis 7.4+ writes RDB v12 which Valkey rejects; Valkey 9 writes its own v80 — a one-way door), the two transfer layers (version-bound REPLICAOF/DUMP-RESTORE vs version-agnostic logical replay with RedisShake or rdb-cli), a side-by-side cutover runbook, Valkey…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# redis-to-valkey

Migrate Redis (Bitnami-chart Sentinel HA or any standalone/replicated Redis)
to Valkey on Kubernetes with data intact, clients reconnected, and no
dependency left on dead-ended Bitnami artifacts. Facts below were verified
2026-08-26 against primary sources (valkey source at release tags, chart
repos, vendor docs); re-verify anything version-gated before relying on it in
a later year.

## Why this migration exists

A pinned Bitnami chart still *syncs* — `charts.bitnami.com` serves — so the
failure arrives later, at **image-pull time**, on the first pod reschedule onto
a node without the tag cached: versioned images moved to frozen
`docker.io/bitnamilegacy` on 2025-09-29. Valkey, the Linux Foundation fork of
Redis 7.2.4, is the successor. Full risk model:
`references/airgap-gitops.md`.

## The one fact that shapes every plan: the RDB-version wall

Valkey forked at Redis 7.2. Its replication and snapshot formats stayed at
the fork point, then diverged on their own path:

| Server | Writes RDB | Can load |
|---|---|---|
| Redis 7.0 | v10 | ≤ v10 |
| Redis 7.2 | v11 | ≤ v11 |
| Redis 7.4 / 8.x | **v12** | ≤ v12 |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add air-gapped/skills/redis-to-valkey@sha256:cc988fbf81e6afed

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.4397948, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
