SWAPDB

Usage:
SWAPDB index1 index2
Complexity:
O(N) where N is the count of clients watching or blocking on keys from both databases.
Since:
4.0.0
ACL Categories:
@dangerous, @fast, @keyspace, @write

This command swaps two Valkey databases, so that immediately all the clients connected to a given database will see the data of the other database, and the other way around.

Note: SWAPDB is disabled in cluster mode to prevent shard inconsistencies, as swapping databases on one shard while leaving others unchanged could lead to data inconsistencies.

The caller must have ACL permission to access both of the databases being swapped. See database permissions.

Examples

SWAPDB 0 1

This will swap database 0 with database 1. All the clients connected with database 0 will immediately see the new data, exactly like all the clients connected with database 1 will see the data that was formerly of database 0.
