string
Warning
Due to current limitations on Redis (cluster mode disabled), this operation or parameter is not supported on Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups.
The ID of the replication group to which this cache cluster should belong. If this parameter is specified, the cache cluster is added to the specified replication group as a read replica; otherwise, the cache cluster is a standalone primary that is not part of any replication group.
If the specified replication group is Multi-AZ enabled and the Availability Zone is not specified, the cache cluster is created in Availability Zones that provide the best spread of read replicas across Availability Zones.
Note
This parameter is only valid if the Engine parameter is redis .
string
Specifies whether the nodes in this Memcached cluster are created in a single Availability Zone or created across multiple Availability Zones in the cluster's region.
This parameter is only supported for Memcached cache clusters.
If the AZMode and PreferredAvailabilityZones are not specified, ElastiCache assumes single-az mode.
string

This option is only supported on Memcached.
Note
If you are creating your cache cluster in an Amazon VPC (recommended) you can only locate nodes in Availability Zones that are associated with the subnets in the selected subnet group.
The number of Availability Zones listed must equal the value of NumCacheNodes .
If you want all the nodes in the same Availability Zone, use PreferredAvailabilityZone instead, or repeat the Availability Zone multiple times in the list.

{'AuthToken': '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 cache clusters, where one of the cache 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 15 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.
Note
This operation is valid for Redis only.

integer
The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic 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.
Note
This parameter is only valid if the Engine parameter is redis .
Default: 0 (i.e., automatic backups are disabled for this cache cluster).
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 .
string
The password used to access a password protected server.
Password constraints:
Must be only printable ASCII characters.
Must be at least 16 characters and no more than 128 characters in length.
Cannot contain any of the following characters: '/', '"', or "@".
For more information, see AUTH password at Redis.

Response Structure
(dict) --
ReplicationGroup (dict) --
Contains all of the attributes of a specific Redis replication group.
ReplicationGroupId (string) --
The identifier for the replication group.
Description (string) --
The description of the replication group.
Status (string) --
The current state of this replication group - creating , available , modifying , deleting , create-failed , snapshotting .
PendingModifiedValues (dict) --
A group of settings to be applied to the replication group, either immediately or during the next maintenance window.
PrimaryClusterId (string) --
The primary cluster ID that is applied immediately (if --apply-immediately was specified), or during the next maintenance window.
AutomaticFailoverStatus (string) --
Indicates the status of Multi-AZ for this Redis replication group.
Note
ElastiCache Multi-AZ replication groups are not supported on:
Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.
Redis (cluster mode disabled):T1 and T2 cache node types. Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.
MemberClusters (list) --
The names of all the cache clusters that are part of this replication group.
(string) --
NodeGroups (list) --
A single element list with information about the nodes in the replication group.
(dict) --
Represents a collection of cache nodes in a replication group. One node in the node group is the read/write primary node. All the other nodes are read-only Replica nodes.
NodeGroupId (string) --
The identifier for the node group (shard). A Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group contains only 1 node group; therefore, the node group ID is 0001. A Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group contains 1 to 15 node groups numbered 0001 to 0015.
Status (string) --
The current state of this replication group - creating , available , etc.
PrimaryEndpoint (dict) --
The endpoint of the primary node in this node group (shard).
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.
Port (integer) --
The port number that the cache engine is listening on.
Slots (string) --
The keyspace for this node group (shard).
NodeGroupMembers (list) --
A list containing information about individual nodes within the node group (shard).
(dict) --
Represents a single node within a node group (shard).
CacheClusterId (string) --
The ID of the cache cluster to which the node belongs.
CacheNodeId (string) --
The ID of the node within its cache cluster. A node ID is a numeric identifier (0001, 0002, etc.).
ReadEndpoint (dict) --
Represents the information required for client programs to connect to a cache node.
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.
Port (integer) --
The port number that the cache engine is listening on.
PreferredAvailabilityZone (string) --
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 .
SnapshottingClusterId (string) --
The cache cluster ID that is used as the daily snapshot source for the replication group.
AutomaticFailover (string) --
Indicates the status of Multi-AZ for this replication group.
Note
ElastiCache Multi-AZ replication groups are not supported on:
Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.
Redis (cluster mode disabled):T1 and T2 cache node types. Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.
ConfigurationEndpoint (dict) --
The configuration endpoint for this replicaiton group. Use the configuration endpoint to connect to this replication group.
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.
Port (integer) --
The port number that the cache engine is listening on.
SnapshotRetentionLimit (integer) --
The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic cache 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 .
