Let's face reality: One needs to set up jobs with Redis.

Hi,

  1. If no cache system like redis is available, then what to do in order to use CirrusSearch without job problem and avoid 'Notice'?
  2. As about JDK installation, where should I install its Linux bin on server?

CirrusSearch and elasticsearch are generally complex software to install and maintain, I would only suggest using it in a fairly advanced scenario. CirrusSearch makes heavy use of the job queue, it will likely only work with a full job queue implementation (like the redis one) installed. Essentially add a job queue to the list of requirements, it's just as essential as elasticsearch.
