ReplicationSourceIdentifier

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the source DB instance or DB cluster if this DB cluster is created as a read replica.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

Tags

Tags to assign to the DB cluster.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

StorageEncrypted

A value that indicates whether the DB cluster is encrypted.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

KmsKeyId

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier for an encrypted DB cluster.

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is the key ARN, key ID, alias ARN, or alias name for the KMS key. To use a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account, specify the key ARN or alias ARN.

When a KMS key isn't specified in KmsKeyId:

  • If ReplicationSourceIdentifier identifies an encrypted source, then Amazon RDS will use the KMS key used to encrypt the source. Otherwise, Amazon RDS will use your default KMS key.

  • If the StorageEncrypted parameter is enabled and ReplicationSourceIdentifier isn't specified, then Amazon RDS will use your default KMS key.

There is a default KMS key for your Amazon Web Services account. Your Amazon Web Services account has a different default KMS key for each Amazon Web Services Region.

If you create a read replica of an encrypted DB cluster in another Amazon Web Services Region, you must set KmsKeyId to a KMS key identifier that is valid in the destination Amazon Web Services Region. This KMS key is used to encrypt the read replica in that Amazon Web Services Region.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

PreSignedUrl

When you are replicating a DB cluster from one Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region to another, an URL that contains a Signature Version 4 signed request for the create_db_cluster operation to be called in the source Amazon Web Services Region where the DB cluster is replicated from. Specify PreSignedUrl only when you are performing cross-Region replication from an encrypted DB cluster.

The presigned URL must be a valid request for the create_db_cluster API operation that can run in the source Amazon Web Services Region that contains the encrypted DB cluster to copy.

The presigned URL request must contain the following parameter values:

  • KmsKeyId - The KMS key identifier for the KMS key to use to encrypt the copy of the DB cluster in the destination Amazon Web Services Region. This should refer to the same KMS key for both the create_db_cluster operation that is called in the destination Amazon Web Services Region, and the operation contained in the presigned URL.

  • DestinationRegion - The name of the Amazon Web Services Region that Aurora read replica will be created in.

  • ReplicationSourceIdentifier - The DB cluster identifier for the encrypted DB cluster to be copied. This identifier must be in the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) format for the source Amazon Web Services Region. For example, if you are copying an encrypted DB cluster from the us-west-2 Amazon Web Services Region, then your ReplicationSourceIdentifier would look like Example: arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:aurora-cluster1.

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.

If you are using an Amazon Web Services SDK tool or the CLI, you can specify SourceRegion (or --source-region for the CLI) instead of specifying PreSignedUrl manually. Specifying SourceRegion autogenerates a presigned URL that is a valid request for the operation that can run in the source Amazon Web Services Region.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

If you supply a value for this operation's SourceRegion parameter, a pre-signed URL will be calculated on your behalf.

EnableIAMDatabaseAuthentication

A value that indicates whether to enable mapping of Amazon Web Services Identity and Access Management (IAM) accounts to database accounts. By default, mapping isn't enabled.

For more information, see IAM Database Authentication in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

BacktrackWindow

The target backtrack window, in seconds. To disable backtracking, set this value to 0.

Default: 0

Constraints:

  • If specified, this value must be set to a number from 0 to 259,200 (72 hours).

Valid for: Aurora MySQL DB clusters only

EnableCloudwatchLogsExports

The list of log types that need to be enabled for exporting to CloudWatch Logs. The values in the list depend on the DB engine being used.

RDS for MySQL

Possible values are error, general, and slowquery.

RDS for PostgreSQL

Possible values are postgresql and upgrade.

Aurora MySQL

Possible values are audit, error, general, and slowquery.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

ScalingConfiguration

For DB clusters in serverless DB engine mode, the scaling properties of the DB cluster.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

DeletionProtection

A value that indicates whether the DB cluster has deletion protection enabled. The database can't be deleted when deletion protection is enabled. By default, deletion protection isn't enabled.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

GlobalClusterIdentifier

The global cluster ID of an Aurora cluster that becomes the primary cluster in the new global database cluster.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

EnableHttpEndpoint

A value that indicates whether to enable the HTTP endpoint for an Aurora Serverless v1 DB cluster. By default, the HTTP endpoint is disabled.

When enabled, the HTTP endpoint provides a connectionless web service API for running SQL queries on the Aurora Serverless v1 DB cluster. You can also query your database from inside the RDS console with the query editor.

For more information, see Using the Data API for Aurora Serverless v1 in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

CopyTagsToSnapshot

A value that indicates whether to copy all tags from the DB cluster to snapshots of the DB cluster. The default is not to copy them.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

Domain

The Active Directory directory ID to create the DB cluster in.

For Amazon Aurora DB clusters, Amazon RDS can use Kerberos authentication to authenticate users that connect to the DB cluster.

For more information, see Kerberos authentication in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

DomainIAMRoleName

Specify the name of the IAM role to be used when making API calls to the Directory Service.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

EnableGlobalWriteForwarding

A value that indicates whether to enable this DB cluster to forward write operations to the primary cluster of an Aurora global database (GlobalCluster). By default, write operations are not allowed on Aurora DB clusters that are secondary clusters in an Aurora global database.

You can set this value only on Aurora DB clusters that are members of an Aurora global database. With this parameter enabled, a secondary cluster can forward writes to the current primary cluster and the resulting changes are replicated back to this cluster. For the primary DB cluster of an Aurora global database, this value is used immediately if the primary is demoted by the failover_global_cluster API operation, but it does nothing until then.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

DBClusterInstanceClass

The compute and memory capacity of each DB instance in the Multi-AZ DB cluster, for example db.m6gd.xlarge. Not all DB instance classes are available in all Amazon Web Services 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.

This setting is required to create a Multi-AZ DB cluster.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

AllocatedStorage

The amount of storage in gibibytes (GiB) to allocate to each DB instance in the Multi-AZ DB cluster.

This setting is required to create a Multi-AZ DB cluster.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

StorageType

Specifies the storage type to be associated with the DB cluster.

This setting is required to create a Multi-AZ DB cluster.

When specified for a Multi-AZ DB cluster, a value for the Iops parameter is required.

Valid values: aurora, aurora-iopt1 (Aurora DB clusters); io1 (Multi-AZ DB clusters)

Default: aurora (Aurora DB clusters); io1 (Multi-AZ DB clusters)

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

For more information on storage types for Aurora DB clusters, see Storage configurations for Amazon Aurora DB clusters. For more information on storage types for Multi-AZ DB clusters, see Settings for creating Multi-AZ DB clusters.

Iops

The amount of Provisioned IOPS (input/output operations per second) to be initially allocated for each DB instance in the Multi-AZ DB cluster.

For information about valid IOPS values, see Provisioned IOPS storage in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

This setting is required to create a Multi-AZ DB cluster.

Constraints: Must be a multiple between .5 and 50 of the storage amount for the DB cluster.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

PubliclyAccessible

A value that indicates whether the DB cluster is publicly accessible.

When the DB cluster is publicly accessible, its Domain Name System (DNS) endpoint resolves to the private IP address from within the DB cluster's virtual private cloud (VPC). It resolves to the public IP address from outside of the DB cluster's VPC. Access to the DB cluster is ultimately controlled by the security group it uses. That public access isn't permitted if the security group assigned to the DB cluster doesn't permit it.

When the DB cluster isn't publicly accessible, it is an internal DB cluster with a DNS name that resolves to a private IP address.

Default: The default behavior varies depending on whether DBSubnetGroupName is specified.

If DBSubnetGroupName isn't specified, and PubliclyAccessible isn't specified, the following applies:

  • If the default VPC in the target Region doesn’t have an internet gateway attached to it, the DB cluster is private.

  • If the default VPC in the target Region has an internet gateway attached to it, the DB cluster is public.

If DBSubnetGroupName is specified, and PubliclyAccessible isn't specified, the following applies:

  • If the subnets are part of a VPC that doesn’t have an internet gateway attached to it, the DB cluster is private.

  • If the subnets are part of a VPC that has an internet gateway attached to it, the DB cluster is public.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

AutoMinorVersionUpgrade

A value that indicates whether minor engine upgrades are applied automatically to the DB cluster during the maintenance window. By default, minor engine upgrades are applied automatically.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

MonitoringInterval

The interval, in seconds, between points when Enhanced Monitoring metrics are collected for the DB cluster. To turn off collecting Enhanced Monitoring metrics, specify 0. The default is 0.

If MonitoringRoleArn is specified, also set MonitoringInterval to a value other than 0.

Valid Values: 0, 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

MonitoringRoleArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the IAM role that permits RDS to send Enhanced Monitoring metrics to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. An example is arn:aws:iam:123456789012:role/emaccess. For information on creating a monitoring role, see Setting up and enabling Enhanced Monitoring in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

If MonitoringInterval is set to a value other than 0, supply a MonitoringRoleArn value.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

EnablePerformanceInsights

A value that indicates whether to turn on Performance Insights for the DB cluster.

For more information, see Using Amazon Performance Insights in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

PerformanceInsightsKMSKeyId

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier for encryption of Performance Insights data.

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is the key ARN, key ID, alias ARN, or alias name for the KMS key.

If you don't specify a value for PerformanceInsightsKMSKeyId, then Amazon RDS uses your default KMS key. There is a default KMS key for your Amazon Web Services account. Your Amazon Web Services account has a different default KMS key for each Amazon Web Services Region.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

PerformanceInsightsRetentionPeriod

The number of days to retain Performance Insights data. The default is 7 days. The following values are valid:

  • 7

  • month * 31, where month is a number of months from 1-23

  • 731

For example, the following values are valid:

  • 93 (3 months * 31)

  • 341 (11 months * 31)

  • 589 (19 months * 31)

  • 731

If you specify a retention period such as 94, which isn't a valid value, RDS issues an error.

Valid for: Multi-AZ DB clusters only

ServerlessV2ScalingConfiguration

NetworkType

The network type of the DB cluster.

Valid values:

  • IPV4

  • DUAL

The network type is determined by the DBSubnetGroup specified for the DB cluster. A DBSubnetGroup can support only the IPv4 protocol or the IPv4 and the IPv6 protocols (DUAL).

For more information, see Working with a DB instance in a VPC in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters only

DBSystemId

Reserved for future use.

ManageMasterUserPassword

A value that indicates whether to manage the master user password with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager.

For more information, see Password management with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager in the Amazon RDS User Guide and Password management with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.

Constraints:

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

MasterUserSecretKmsKeyId

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier to encrypt a secret that is automatically generated and managed in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager.

This setting is valid only if the master user password is managed by RDS in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager for the DB cluster.

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is the key ARN, key ID, alias ARN, or alias name for the KMS key. To use a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account, specify the key ARN or alias ARN.

If you don't specify MasterUserSecretKmsKeyId, then the aws/secretsmanager KMS key is used to encrypt the secret. If the secret is in a different Amazon Web Services account, then you can't use the aws/secretsmanager KMS key to encrypt the secret, and you must use a customer managed KMS key.

There is a default KMS key for your Amazon Web Services account. Your Amazon Web Services account has a different default KMS key for each Amazon Web Services Region.

Valid for: Aurora DB clusters and Multi-AZ DB clusters

SourceRegion

The ID of the region that contains the source for the read replica.
