Cause (Documented platform behavior): Client mode doesn't match server topology.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Limitations:
- MOVED reply format rendered as 'MOVED <slot> <ip>:<port>'; only the redis-cli help text containing -MOVED is verified verbatim.
Other error fragments:
- SELECT is not allowed in cluster mode
- Enable cluster mode (follow -ASK and -MOVED redirections).

Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Some keys work and others fail with MOVED errors (standalone client on a cluster), or cluster clients fail at startup; DB index selection fails in cluster mode.
- Context
- Product: Redis Component: Redis Cluster redirection / client mode Operation: Connecting to managed Redis (cluster-mode enabled or disabled) with the wrong client type, or using redis://host:6379/1 against a cluster Affected versions: unknown Environment: unknown Packages: redis-server current unstable at cited commit Trigger: Standalone clients don't follow -MOVED/-ASK redirections; cluster clients call CLUSTER commands that a standalone instance rejects; clusters only support DB 0.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [Redis cluster vs standalone mismatch] 'MOVED <slot> <host:port>' with a non-cluster client, 'ERR This instance has cluster support disabled' with a cluster client, 'SELECT is not allowe
Recommended action: Use a cluster-aware client (redis-cli -c, RedisCluster / Cluster classes, ioredis Cluster) for cluster-mode endpoints and a standalone client otherwise; drop the /<db> index from URLs for cluster endpoints (use key prefixes instead).
