Changing notification mechanism to PostgreSQL
Up until the release of PrivX 20, PrivX used Redis for inter microservice notifications. With the release of PrivX 20, a support for using PostgreSQL NOTIFY for notifications was introduced.
To switch PrivX to use Postgres for notifications, modify /opt/privx/etc/shared-config.toml
and change
type = "redis"
to
type = "db"
under [notificationCache]
.
After this, restart PrivX with systemctl restart privx
.
Perform the change on all of the nodes running PrivX.
After the change, it is safe to decommission the Redis PrivX is using.
