sometimes a scan can get stuck if redis is blocking / not accepting any
additions to the knowledge base of OpenVAS. If you have statements like:

save 900 1
save 300 10
save 60 10000

in your redis.conf comment those and restart redis. See also the
example_redis_2_4.conf / example_redis_2_6.conf shipped in the docs
folder of openvas-scanner.
