Hello,

while it is possible to run multiple instances of redis via rc.conf, redis sentinel mode (https://redis.io/topics/sentinel) is not configurable and thus redis cannot automatically started in sentinel mode.

While this also should be configurable in redis.conf and not only by starting it via `redis --sentinel` (see https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/7596), momentarily it is not possible to start it otherwise than calling it from the commandline.

Cheers
Lars

On Ubuntu they have an extra package to install and start sentinel, but I think this is not necessary when introduction an additional rc.conf variable.
