--source-db-instance-arn
(string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the source DB instance for the replicated automated backups, for example,arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:db:mydatabase
.
--backup-retention-period
(integer)
The retention period for the replicated automated backups.
--kms-key-id
(string)
The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier for encryption of the replicated automated backups. The KMS key ID is the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the KMS encryption key in the destination Amazon Web Services Region, for example,arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
.
--pre-signed-url
(string)
In an Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region, an URL that contains a Signature Version 4 signed request for the
StartDBInstanceAutomatedBackupsReplication
operation to call in the Amazon Web Services Region of the source DB instance. The presigned URL must be a valid request for theStartDBInstanceAutomatedBackupsReplication
API operation that can run in the Amazon Web Services Region that contains the source DB instance.This setting applies only to Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Regions. It's ignored in other Amazon Web Services Regions.
To learn how to generate a Signature Version 4 signed request, see Authenticating Requests: Using Query Parameters (Amazon Web Services Signature Version 4) and Signature Version 4 Signing Process .
Note
If you are using an Amazon Web Services SDK tool or the CLI, you can specifySourceRegion
(or--source-region
for the CLI) instead of specifyingPreSignedUrl
manually. SpecifyingSourceRegion
autogenerates a presigned URL that is a valid request for the operation that can run in the source Amazon Web Services Region.
--source-region
(string)
The ID of the region that contains the source for the db instance.
--cli-input-json
(string)
Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.
--generate-cli-skeleton
(string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input
, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
--debug
(boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url
(string)
Override command's default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl
(boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate
(boolean)
Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.
--output
(string)
The formatting style for command output.
--query
(string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile
(string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region
(string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version
(string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color
(string)
Turn on/off color output.
--no-sign-request
(boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle
(string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.
Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
To enable cross-Region automated backups
The following start-db-instance-automated-backups-replication
example replicates automated backups from a DB instance in the US East (N. Virginia) Region to US West (Oregon). The backup retention period is 14 days.
aws rds start-db-instance-automated-backups-replication \
--region us-west-2 \
--source-db-instance-arn "arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:db:new-orcl-db" \
--backup-retention-period 14
Output:
