{'Snapshot': {'KmsKeyId': 'string'}}

Makes a copy of an existing snapshot.

Note

This operation is valid for Redis only.

Warning

Users or groups that have permissions to use the CopySnapshot operation can create their own Amazon S3 buckets and copy snapshots to it. To control access to your snapshots, use an IAM policy to control who has the ability to use the CopySnapshot operation. For more information about using IAM to control the use of ElastiCache operations, see Exporting Snapshots and Authentication & Access Control .

You could receive the following error messages.

Error Messages

  • Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is outside of the region. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

  • Error Message: The S3 bucket %s does not exist. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

  • Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is not owned by the authenticated user. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

  • Error Message: The authenticated user does not have sufficient permissions to perform the desired activity. Solution: Contact your system administrator to get the needed permissions.

  • Error Message: The S3 bucket %s already contains an object with key %s. Solution: Give the TargetSnapshotName a new and unique value. If exporting a snapshot, you could alternatively create a new Amazon S3 bucket and use this same value for TargetSnapshotName .

  • Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add List and Read permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

  • Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted WRITE permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add Upload/Delete permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

  • Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ_ACP permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add View Permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

Request
{'KmsKeyId': 'string'}
Response
{'ReplicationGroup': {'KmsKeyId': 'string'}}

Creates a Redis (cluster mode disabled) or a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group.

A Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group is a collection of clusters, where one of the clusters is a read/write primary and the others are read-only replicas. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas.

A Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group is a collection of 1 to 90 node groups (shards). Each node group (shard) has one read/write primary node and up to 5 read-only replica nodes. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas. Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups partition the data across node groups (shards).

When a Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group has been successfully created, you can add one or more read replicas to it, up to a total of 5 read replicas. You cannot alter a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group after it has been created. However, if you need to increase or decrease the number of node groups (console: shards), you can avail yourself of ElastiCache for Redis' enhanced backup and restore. For more information, see Restoring From a Backup with Cluster Resizing in the ElastiCache User Guide .

Note

This operation is valid for Redis only.

[REQUIRED]

The replication group identifier. This parameter is stored as a lowercase string.

Constraints:

  • A name must contain from 1 to 40 alphanumeric characters or hyphens.

  • The first character must be a letter.

  • A name cannot end with a hyphen or contain two consecutive hyphens.

type ReplicationGroupDescription

string

param ReplicationGroupDescription

[REQUIRED]

A user-created description for the replication group.

type PrimaryClusterId

string

param PrimaryClusterId

The identifier of the cluster that serves as the primary for this replication group. This cluster must already exist and have a status of available .

This parameter is not required if NumCacheClusters , NumNodeGroups , or ReplicasPerNodeGroup is specified.

type AutomaticFailoverEnabled

boolean

param AutomaticFailoverEnabled

Specifies whether a read-only replica is automatically promoted to read/write primary if the existing primary fails.

If true , Multi-AZ is enabled for this replication group. If false , Multi-AZ is disabled for this replication group.

AutomaticFailoverEnabled must be enabled for Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups.

Default: false

Amazon ElastiCache for Redis does not support Multi-AZ with automatic failover on:

  • Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.

  • Redis (cluster mode disabled): T1 node types.

  • Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.

type NumCacheClusters

integer

param NumCacheClusters

The number of clusters this replication group initially has.

This parameter is not used if there is more than one node group (shard). You should use ReplicasPerNodeGroup instead.

If AutomaticFailoverEnabled is true , the value of this parameter must be at least 2. If AutomaticFailoverEnabled is false you can omit this parameter (it will default to 1), or you can explicitly set it to a value between 2 and 6.

The maximum permitted value for NumCacheClusters is 6 (1 primary plus 5 replicas).

type PreferredCacheClusterAZs

list

param PreferredCacheClusterAZs

A list of EC2 Availability Zones in which the replication group's clusters are created. The order of the Availability Zones in the list is the order in which clusters are allocated. The primary cluster is created in the first AZ in the list.

This parameter is not used if there is more than one node group (shard). You should use NodeGroupConfiguration instead.

Note

If you are creating your replication group in an Amazon VPC (recommended), you can only locate clusters in Availability Zones associated with the subnets in the selected subnet group.

The number of Availability Zones listed must equal the value of NumCacheClusters .

Default: system chosen Availability Zones.

  • (string) --

type NumNodeGroups

integer

param NumNodeGroups

DeleteReplicationGroup (updated) Link ¶
Changes (response)
{'ReplicationGroup': {'KmsKeyId': 'string'}}

Deletes an existing replication group. By default, this operation deletes the entire replication group, including the primary/primaries and all of the read replicas. If the replication group has only one primary, you can optionally delete only the read replicas, while retaining the primary by setting RetainPrimaryCluster=true .

When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon ElastiCache immediately begins deleting the selected resources; you cannot cancel or revert this operation.

Note

This operation is valid for Redis only.

TestFailover (updated) Link ¶
Changes (response)
{'ReplicationGroup': {'KmsKeyId': 'string'}}

Represents the input of a TestFailover operation which test automatic failover on a specified node group (called shard in the console) in a replication group (called cluster in the console).

Note the following

  • A customer can use this operation to test automatic failover on up to 5 shards (called node groups in the ElastiCache API and AWS CLI) in any rolling 24-hour period.

  • If calling this operation on shards in different clusters (called replication groups in the API and CLI), the calls can be made concurrently.

  • If calling this operation multiple times on different shards in the same Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group, the first node replacement must complete before a subsequent call can be made.

  • To determine whether the node replacement is complete you can check Events using the Amazon ElastiCache console, the AWS CLI, or the ElastiCache API. Look for the following automatic failover related events, listed here in order of occurrance:

    • Replication group message: Test Failover API called for node group <node-group-id>

    • Cache cluster message: Failover from master node <primary-node-id> to replica node <node-id> completed

    • Replication group message: Failover from master node <primary-node-id> to replica node <node-id> completed

    • Cache cluster message: Recovering cache nodes <node-id>

    • Cache cluster message: Finished recovery for cache nodes <node-id>

                The name of the Availability Zone in which the node is located.

              • CurrentRole (string) --

                The role that is currently assigned to the node - primary or replica . This member is only applicable for Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication groups.

      • SnapshottingClusterId (string) --

        The cluster ID that is used as the daily snapshot source for the replication group.

      • AutomaticFailover (string) --

        Indicates the status of Multi-AZ with automatic failover for this Redis replication group.

        Amazon ElastiCache for Redis does not support Multi-AZ with automatic failover on:

        • Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.

        • Redis (cluster mode disabled): T1 node types.

        • Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.

          The port number that the cache engine is listening on.

      • SnapshotRetentionLimit (integer) --

        The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic cluster snapshots before deleting them. For example, if you set SnapshotRetentionLimit to 5, a snapshot that was taken today is retained for 5 days before being deleted.

        Warning

        If the value of SnapshotRetentionLimit is set to zero (0), backups are turned off.

      • SnapshotWindow (string) --

        The daily time range (in UTC) during which ElastiCache begins taking a daily snapshot of your node group (shard).

        Example: 05:00-09:00

        If you do not specify this parameter, ElastiCache automatically chooses an appropriate time range.

        Note

        This parameter is only valid if the Engine parameter is redis .

      • ClusterEnabled (boolean) --

        A flag indicating whether or not this replication group is cluster enabled; i.e., whether its data can be partitioned across multiple shards (API/CLI: node groups).

        A flag that enables encryption at-rest when set to true .

        You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable encryption at-rest on a cluster you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.

        Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 , 4.x or later.

        Default: false

      • KmsKeyId (string) --

        The ID of the KMS key used to encrypt the disk in the cluster.
