I just made a fix for issue #43 which I believe also addresses this issue. Please try it out.

Investigating if this is still an active issue

from redis.

I downloaded recent branch 2_6_14 and tested it with same configuration stated above with x64 windows 7 on same machine. Instead of getting tilt mode entered, now I am getting -cmd-link-reconnection-master when master gets down. Now I wanted to know:
[1] How can I configure sentinel to promote slave1/slave2 to become new master?
[2] How can I configure sentinel to tell slave 2 become the slave of slave1 or visa versa once [1] is done?

Is it possible to do above 2 things with current release?

Updates - 10/9/2013

I know now the answer of above two. I am now using release 2.6.12 and Redis64 in bin is not working for me but Redis is working properly. I guess this version deson't reconfigure to mymaster back when its up after down but that's already resolved in upcoming releases. So all good.

The only question is: I am using windows 7 x64, and Sentinel in Redis64 is not working but works in 32bit.

I hope this helps.

2.8.4 and 2.6.14 have been released. The signed binaries are available from NuGet and Chocolatey. Please test with these versions and let us know if the issue is resolved.

I have just checked in a fix into the 2.8.4_msopen branch that appears to resolve an issue with sentinel mode. Please test with the version contained bin\release\redis-2.8.4.zip. I will close this issue in a week if there is no further feedback.
