Is remote_cache 6.2.2 redis working?

Grafana
1

I’ve set redis on remote_cache, but it does not seem to be caching. Is remote cache working?

v.6.2.2

2

It’s only used when auth proxy authentication is enabled.

3

If auth proxy authentication is enabled. Are the results of the query cached in the redis?
Or, is authentication info cached?

4

No cache of queries, only authentication info.

Is remote_cache used with auth.ldap? I have encountered a similar scenario where I have configured remote_cache to use Redis, but nothing is being stored there. I even did a extra test by setting the port to an incorrect value and nothing is in the logs, even with debug enabled.

GF_REMOTE_CACHE_TYPE=redis
GF_REMOTE_CACHE_CONNSTR=redis:6379 (also tried 6378, which I would expect to fail with an error message)

If remote_cache is really only used with auth.proxy, it would be good to state this in the documentation.
