Message "AOF fsync is taking too long" being printed in Redis log

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • When monitoring the log from the system-redis and backend-redis pods the below error message is observed:

    Asynchronous AOF fsync is taking too long (disk is busy?). Writing the AOF buffer without waiting for fsync to complete, this may slow down Redis.
    
  • The backend-redis failed a liveness probe and was subsequently killed.
