Swap Jellyfin's self-managed redis Deployment for a valkey-operator-managed
single-instance ValkeyCluster (shards:1, replicas:0) as the distributed
transcode-session store, and point Jellyfin at the operator's client Service.
- Add apps/base/jellyfin/valkey.yaml: ValkeyCluster jellyfin-valkey, image via
artifactapi dockerhub mirror, exporter disabled, redis-parity resources, no
persistence (emptyDir) since the lease state is ephemeral and the managed PVC
cannot carry the k8up.io/backup annotation the namespace Schedule needs.
- Remove redis-deployment.yaml, redis-service.yaml, redis-pvc.yaml and drop them
from kustomization.yaml; add valkey.yaml.
- Repoint Jellyfin__TranscodeStore__RedisConnectionString at the operator client
Service (valkey-jellyfin-valkey:6379), preserving abortConnect=false and the
LeaseDurationSeconds. No auth/TLS: the operator leaves the default user
passwordless with protected-mode off (parity with the old open redis).
HA (more shards/replicas) is a follow-up.
