[required] The DB instance identifier. This value is stored as a lowercase string.
Constraints:
Must match the identifier of an existing DBInstance.
The new amount of storage (in gibibytes) to allocate for the DB instance.
For MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL, the value supplied must be at least 10% greater than the current value. Values that are not at least 10% greater than the existing value are rounded up so that they are 10% greater than the current value.
For the valid values for allocated storage for each engine, see
CreateDBInstance
.
The new compute and memory capacity of the DB instance, for example,
db.m4.large
. Not all DB instance classes are available in all AWS
Regions, or for all database engines. For the full list of DB instance
classes, and availability for your engine, see DB Instance Class
in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
If you modify the DB instance class, an outage occurs during the change.
The change is applied during the next maintenance window, unless
ApplyImmediately
is enabled for this request.
Default: Uses existing setting
The new DB subnet group for the DB instance. You can use this parameter to move your DB instance to a different VPC. If your DB instance is not in a VPC, you can also use this parameter to move your DB instance into a VPC. For more information, see Updating the VPC for a DB Instance in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
Changing the subnet group causes an outage during the change. The change
is applied during the next maintenance window, unless you enable
ApplyImmediately
.
Constraints: If supplied, must match the name of an existing DBSubnetGroup.
Example: mySubnetGroup
A list of DB security groups to authorize on this DB instance. Changing this setting doesn't result in an outage and the change is asynchronously applied as soon as possible.
Constraints:
If supplied, must match existing DBSecurityGroups.
A list of EC2 VPC security groups to authorize on this DB instance. This change is asynchronously applied as soon as possible.
Amazon Aurora
Not applicable. The associated list of EC2 VPC security groups is
managed by the DB cluster. For more information, see ModifyDBCluster
.
Constraints:
If supplied, must match existing VpcSecurityGroupIds.
A value that indicates whether the modifications in this request and any
pending modifications are asynchronously applied as soon as possible,
regardless of the PreferredMaintenanceWindow
setting for the DB
instance. By default, this parameter is disabled.
If this parameter is disabled, changes to the DB instance are applied
during the next maintenance window. Some parameter changes can cause an
outage and are applied on the next call to RebootDBInstance, or the next
failure reboot. Review the table of parameters in Modifying a DB Instance
in the Amazon RDS User Guide. to see the impact of enabling or
disabling ApplyImmediately
for each modified parameter and to
determine when the changes are applied.
The new password for the master user. The password can include any printable ASCII character except "/", """, or "@".
Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage and the change is
asynchronously applied as soon as possible. Between the time of the
request and the completion of the request, the MasterUserPassword
element exists in the PendingModifiedValues
element of the operation
response.
Amazon Aurora
Not applicable. The password for the master user is managed by the DB
cluster. For more information, see ModifyDBCluster
.
Default: Uses existing setting
MariaDB
Constraints: Must contain from 8 to 41 characters.
Microsoft SQL Server
Constraints: Must contain from 8 to 128 characters.
MySQL
Constraints: Must contain from 8 to 41 characters.
Oracle
Constraints: Must contain from 8 to 30 characters.
PostgreSQL
Constraints: Must contain from 8 to 128 characters.
Amazon RDS API actions never return the password, so this action provides a way to regain access to a primary instance user if the password is lost. This includes restoring privileges that might have been accidentally revoked.
The name of the DB parameter group to apply to the DB instance. Changing this setting doesn't result in an outage. The parameter group name itself is changed immediately, but the actual parameter changes are not applied until you reboot the instance without failover. In this case, the DB instance isn't rebooted automatically and the parameter changes isn't applied during the next maintenance window.
Default: Uses existing setting
Constraints: The DB parameter group must be in the same DB parameter group family as this DB instance.
The number of days to retain automated backups. Setting this parameter to a positive number enables backups. Setting this parameter to 0 disables automated backups.
Changing this parameter can result in an outage if you change from 0 to
a non-zero value or from a non-zero value to 0. These changes are
applied during the next maintenance window unless the ApplyImmediately
parameter is enabled for this request. If you change the parameter from
one non-zero value to another non-zero value, the change is
asynchronously applied as soon as possible.
Amazon Aurora
Not applicable. The retention period for automated backups is managed by
the DB cluster. For more information, see ModifyDBCluster
.
Default: Uses existing setting
Constraints:
Must be a value from 0 to 35
Can be specified for a MySQL Read Replica only if the source is running MySQL 5.6 or later
Can be specified for a PostgreSQL Read Replica only if the source is running PostgreSQL 9.3.5
Can't be set to 0 if the DB instance is a source to Read Replicas
The daily time range during which automated backups are created if
automated backups are enabled, as determined by the
BackupRetentionPeriod
parameter. Changing this parameter doesn't
result in an outage and the change is asynchronously applied as soon as
possible.
Amazon Aurora
Not applicable. The daily time range for creating automated backups is
managed by the DB cluster. For more information, see ModifyDBCluster
.
Constraints:
Must be in the format hh24:mi-hh24:mi
Must be in Universal Time Coordinated (UTC)
Must not conflict with the preferred maintenance window
Must be at least 30 minutes
The weekly time range (in UTC) during which system maintenance can occur, which might result in an outage. Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage, except in the following situation, and the change is asynchronously applied as soon as possible. If there are pending actions that cause a reboot, and the maintenance window is changed to include the current time, then changing this parameter will cause a reboot of the DB instance. If moving this window to the current time, there must be at least 30 minutes between the current time and end of the window to ensure pending changes are applied.
Default: Uses existing setting
Format: ddd:hh24:mi-ddd:hh24:mi
Valid Days: Mon \| Tue \| Wed \| Thu \| Fri \| Sat \| Sun
Constraints: Must be at least 30 minutes
A value that indicates whether the DB instance is a Multi-AZ deployment.
Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage and the change is
applied during the next maintenance window unless the ApplyImmediately
parameter is enabled for this request.
The version number of the database engine to upgrade to. Changing this
parameter results in an outage and the change is applied during the next
maintenance window unless the ApplyImmediately
parameter is eanbled
for this request.
For major version upgrades, if a nondefault DB parameter group is currently in use, a new DB parameter group in the DB parameter group family for the new engine version must be specified. The new DB parameter group can be the default for that DB parameter group family.
For information about valid engine versions, see CreateDBInstance
, or
call DescribeDBEngineVersions
.
A value that indicates whether major version upgrades are allowed. Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage and the change is asynchronously applied as soon as possible.
Constraints: Major version upgrades must be allowed when specifying a value for the EngineVersion parameter that is a different major version than the DB instance's current version.
A value that indicates whether minor version upgrades are applied automatically to the DB instance during the maintenance window. Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage except in the following case and the change is asynchronously applied as soon as possible. An outage results if this parameter is enabled during the maintenance window, and a newer minor version is available, and RDS has enabled auto patching for that engine version.
The license model for the DB instance.
Valid values: license-included
\| bring-your-own-license
\|
general-public-license
The new Provisioned IOPS (I/O operations per second) value for the RDS instance.
Changing this setting doesn't result in an outage and the change is
applied during the next maintenance window unless the ApplyImmediately
parameter is enabled for this request. If you are migrating from
Provisioned IOPS to standard storage, set this value to 0. The DB
instance will require a reboot for the change in storage type to take
effect.
If you choose to migrate your DB instance from using standard storage to using Provisioned IOPS, or from using Provisioned IOPS to using standard storage, the process can take time. The duration of the migration depends on several factors such as database load, storage size, storage type (standard or Provisioned IOPS), amount of IOPS provisioned (if any), and the number of prior scale storage operations. Typical migration times are under 24 hours, but the process can take up to several days in some cases. During the migration, the DB instance is available for use, but might experience performance degradation. While the migration takes place, nightly backups for the instance are suspended. No other Amazon RDS operations can take place for the instance, including modifying the instance, rebooting the instance, deleting the instance, creating a Read Replica for the instance, and creating a DB snapshot of the instance.
Constraints: For MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL, the value supplied must be at least 10% greater than the current value. Values that are not at least 10% greater than the existing value are rounded up so that they are 10% greater than the current value.
Default: Uses existing setting
Indicates that the DB instance should be associated with the specified
option group. Changing this parameter doesn't result in an outage
except in the following case and the change is applied during the next
maintenance window unless the ApplyImmediately
parameter is enabled
for this request. If the parameter change results in an option group
that enables OEM, this change can cause a brief (sub-second) period
during which new connections are rejected but existing connections are
not interrupted.
Permanent options, such as the TDE option for Oracle Advanced Security TDE, can't be removed from an option group, and that option group can't be removed from a DB instance once it is associated with a DB instance
The new DB instance identifier for the DB instance when renaming a DB
instance. When you change the DB instance identifier, an instance reboot
occurs immediately if you enable ApplyImmediately
, or will occur
during the next maintenance window if you disable Apply Immediately.
This value is stored as a lowercase string.
Constraints:
Must contain from 1 to 63 letters, numbers, or hyphens.
The first character must be a letter.
Can't end with a hyphen or contain two consecutive hyphens.
Example: mydbinstance
Specifies the storage type to be associated with the DB instance.
If you specify Provisioned IOPS (io1
), you must also include a value
for the Iops
parameter.
If you choose to migrate your DB instance from using standard storage to using Provisioned IOPS, or from using Provisioned IOPS to using standard storage, the process can take time. The duration of the migration depends on several factors such as database load, storage size, storage type (standard or Provisioned IOPS), amount of IOPS provisioned (if any), and the number of prior scale storage operations. Typical migration times are under 24 hours, but the process can take up to several days in some cases. During the migration, the DB instance is available for use, but might experience performance degradation. While the migration takes place, nightly backups for the instance are suspended. No other Amazon RDS operations can take place for the instance, including modifying the instance, rebooting the instance, deleting the instance, creating a Read Replica for the instance, and creating a DB snapshot of the instance.

to
remove the instance from its current domain. The domain must be created
prior to this operation. Currently only a Microsoft SQL Server instance
can be created in a Active Directory Domain.
A value that indicates whether to copy all tags from the DB instance to snapshots of the DB instance. By default, tags are not copied.
Amazon Aurora
Not applicable. Copying tags to snapshots is managed by the DB cluster.
Setting this value for an Aurora DB instance has no effect on the DB
cluster setting. For more information, see ModifyDBCluster
.
The interval, in seconds, between points when Enhanced Monitoring metrics are collected for the DB instance. To disable collecting Enhanced Monitoring metrics, specify 0. The default is 0.

When the DB instance is publicly accessible, it is an Internet-facing instance with a publicly resolvable DNS name, which resolves to a public IP address. When the DB instance is not publicly accessible, it is an internal instance with a DNS name that resolves to a private IP address.
PubliclyAccessible
only applies to DB instances in a VPC. The DB
instance must be part of a public subnet and PubliclyAccessible
must
be enabled for it to be publicly accessible.
Changes to the PubliclyAccessible
parameter are applied immediately
regardless of the value of the ApplyImmediately
parameter.
