you cannot change the redis server attributes on the fly, but you can 
define many redis servers and based on the name attribute query a 
specific one. So if you define two, you can do round robin queries to 
both of them, by using a shared variable $shv(...) to know which one was 
used last time. In the same way, since $sht(...) can be changed via MI, 
you can query either first redis or second one, based on the value of 
$sht(). In this way you can build some failover solution just in config 
file of kamailio.

Cheers,
Daniel
