How can I check that REDIS is being using for sessions?

[darkpollo]

If I just add it to the config for an existing install, how can I check that it is working?

Just logging into REDIS console and check?

Thanks

@darkpollo Easiest way would be to use the redis console and execute keys sess:*

If you see a bunch of keys returned, then that database is being used for tracking express sessions.

Another method is to use the MONITOR command, it will show what the redis server is doing.

Thank you for both suggestions!
