Copying an unencrypted DB cluster snapshot by using the AWS CLI or Amazon RDS API - Amazon Aurora

Copying an unencrypted DB cluster snapshot by using the AWS CLI or Amazon RDS API

Use the procedures in the following sections to copy an unencrypted DB cluster snapshot by using the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or Amazon RDS API.

To cancel a copy operation once it is in progress, delete the target DB cluster snapshot identified by --target-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier or TargetDBClusterSnapshotIdentifier while that DB cluster snapshot is in copying status.

To copy a DB cluster snapshot using the AWS Management Console, see Copying a DB cluster snapshot with the AWS Management Console.

To copy a DB cluster snapshot, use the AWS CLI copy-db-cluster-snapshot command. If you are copying the snapshot to another AWS Region, run the command in the AWS Region to which the snapshot will be copied.

The following options are used to copy an unencrypted DB cluster snapshot:

  • --source-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier – The identifier for the DB cluster snapshot to be copied. If you are copying the snapshot to another AWS Region, this identifier must be in the ARN format for the source AWS Region.

  • --target-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier – The identifier for the new copy of the DB cluster snapshot.

The following code creates a copy of DB cluster snapshot arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:cluster-snapshot:aurora-cluster1-snapshot-20130805 named myclustersnapshotcopy in the AWS Region in which the command is run. When the copy is made, all tags on the original snapshot are copied to the snapshot copy.

Example

For Linux, macOS, or Unix:

aws rds copy-db-cluster-snapshot \
  --source-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:cluster-snapshot:aurora-cluster1-snapshot-20130805 \
  --target-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier myclustersnapshotcopy \
  --copy-tags

For Windows:

aws rds copy-db-cluster-snapshot ^
  --source-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:cluster-snapshot:aurora-cluster1-snapshot-20130805 ^
  --target-db-cluster-snapshot-identifier myclustersnapshotcopy ^
  --copy-tags

To copy a DB cluster snapshot, use the Amazon RDS API CopyDBClusterSnapshot operation. If you are copying the snapshot to another AWS Region, perform the action in the AWS Region to which the snapshot will be copied.

The following parameters are used to copy an unencrypted DB cluster snapshot:

  • SourceDBClusterSnapshotIdentifier – The identifier for the DB cluster snapshot to be copied. If you are copying the snapshot to another AWS Region, this identifier must be in the ARN format for the source AWS Region.

  • TargetDBClusterSnapshotIdentifier – The identifier for the new copy of the DB cluster snapshot.

The following code creates a copy of a snapshot arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:cluster-snapshot:aurora-cluster1-snapshot-20130805 named myclustersnapshotcopy in the US West (N. California) Region. When the copy is made, all tags on the original snapshot are copied to the snapshot copy.
