describe-cluster-parameter-groups

Description

Returns a list of Amazon Redshift parameter groups, including parameter groups you created and the default parameter group. For each parameter group, the response includes the parameter group name, description, and parameter group family name. You can optionally specify a name to retrieve the description of a specific parameter group.

For more information about parameters and parameter groups, go to Amazon Redshift Parameter Groups in the Amazon Redshift Cluster Management Guide .

If you specify both tag keys and tag values in the same request, Amazon Redshift returns all parameter groups that match any combination of the specified keys and values. For example, if you have owner and environment for tag keys, and admin and test for tag values, all parameter groups that have any combination of those values are returned.

If both tag keys and values are omitted from the request, parameter groups are returned regardless of whether they have tag keys or values associated with them.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

describe-cluster-parameter-groups is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: ParameterGroups

Options

--parameter-group-name (string)

The name of a specific parameter group for which to return details. By default, details about all parameter groups and the default parameter group are returned.

--tag-keys (list)

A tag key or keys for which you want to return all matching cluster parameter groups that are associated with the specified key or keys. For example, suppose that you have parameter groups that are tagged with keys called owner and environment . If you specify both of these tag keys in the request, Amazon Redshift returns a response with the parameter groups that have either or both of these tag keys associated with them.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--tag-values (list)

A tag value or values for which you want to return all matching cluster parameter groups that are associated with the specified tag value or values. For example, suppose that you have parameter groups that are tagged with values called admin and test . If you specify both of these tag values in the request, Amazon Redshift returns a response with the parameter groups that have either or both of these tag values associated with them.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those 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. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command’s output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command’s output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command’s output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--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. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

Get a Description of All Cluster Parameter Groups

This example returns a description of all cluster parameter groups for the account, with column headers. By default, the output is in JSON format.

Command:

aws redshift describe-cluster-parameter-groups

Result:

{
   "ParameterGroups": [
      {
         "ParameterGroupFamily": "redshift-1.0",
         "Description": "My first cluster parameter group",
         "ParameterGroupName": "myclusterparametergroup"
      } ],
   "ResponseMetadata": {
      "RequestId": "8ceb8f6f-64cc-11e2-bea9-49e0ce183f07"
   }
}

You can also obtain the same information in text format using the --output text option.

Command:

aws redshift describe-cluster-parameter-groups --output text

Result:

redshift-1.0        My first cluster parameter group        myclusterparametergroup
RESPONSEMETADATA    9e665a36-64cc-11e2-8f7d-3b939af52818

Output

Marker -> (string)

A value that indicates the starting point for the next set of response records in a subsequent request. If a value is returned in a response, you can retrieve the next set of records by providing this returned marker value in the Marker parameter and retrying the command. If the Marker field is empty, all response records have been retrieved for the request.

ParameterGroups -> (list)

A list of ClusterParameterGroup instances. Each instance describes one cluster parameter group.

(structure)

Describes a parameter group.

ParameterGroupName -> (string)

The name of the cluster parameter group.

ParameterGroupFamily -> (string)

The name of the cluster parameter group family that this cluster parameter group is compatible with.

Description -> (string)

The description of the parameter group.

Tags -> (list)

The list of tags for the cluster parameter group.

(structure)

A tag consisting of a name/value pair for a resource.

Key -> (string)

The key, or name, for the resource tag.

Value -> (string)

The value for the resource tag.
