delete-db-cluster¶

Description¶

Deletes a previously provisioned cluster. When you delete a cluster, all automated backups for that cluster are deleted and can’t be recovered. Manual DB cluster snapshots of the specified cluster are not deleted.

Synopsis¶

  delete-db-cluster
--db-cluster-identifier <value>
[--skip-final-snapshot | --no-skip-final-snapshot]
[--final-db-snapshot-identifier <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--db-cluster-identifier (string)

The cluster identifier for the cluster to be deleted. This parameter isn’t case sensitive.

Constraints:

Must match an existing DBClusterIdentifier .

--skip-final-snapshot | --no-skip-final-snapshot (boolean)

Determines whether a final cluster snapshot is created before the cluster is deleted. If true is specified, no cluster snapshot is created. If false is specified, a cluster snapshot is created before the DB cluster is deleted.

Note

If SkipFinalSnapshot is false , you must specify a FinalDBSnapshotIdentifier parameter.

Default: false

--final-db-snapshot-identifier (string)

The cluster snapshot identifier of the new cluster snapshot created when SkipFinalSnapshot is set to false .

Note

Specifying this parameter and also setting the SkipFinalShapshot parameter to true results in an error.

Constraints:

Must be from 1 to 255 letters, numbers, or hyphens.

The first character must be a letter.

Cannot end with a hyphen or contain two consecutive hyphens.

--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.

--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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To delete an Amazon DocumentDB cluster

The following delete-db-cluster example deletes the Amazon DocumentDB cluster sample-cluster. No backup of the cluster is made prior to deleting it. NOTE: You must delete all instances associated with the cluster before you can delete it.

aws docdb delete-db-cluster \
    --db-cluster-identifier sample-cluster \
    --skip-final-snapshot

Output:

Output¶

DBCluster -> (structure)

Detailed information about a cluster.

AvailabilityZones -> (list)

Provides the list of Amazon EC2 Availability Zones that instances in the cluster can be created in.

(string)

BackupRetentionPeriod -> (integer)

Specifies the number of days for which automatic snapshots are retained.

DBClusterIdentifier -> (string)

Contains a user-supplied cluster identifier. This identifier is the unique key that identifies a cluster.

DBClusterParameterGroup -> (string)

Specifies the name of the cluster parameter group for the cluster.

DBSubnetGroup -> (string)

Specifies information on the subnet group that is associated with the cluster, including the name, description, and subnets in the subnet group.

Status -> (string)

Specifies the current state of this cluster.

PercentProgress -> (string)

Specifies the progress of the operation as a percentage.

EarliestRestorableTime -> (timestamp)

The earliest time to which a database can be restored with point-in-time restore.

Endpoint -> (string)

Specifies the connection endpoint for the primary instance of the cluster.

ReaderEndpoint -> (string)

The reader endpoint for the cluster. The reader endpoint for a cluster load balances connections across the Amazon DocumentDB replicas that are available in a cluster. As clients request new connections to the reader endpoint, Amazon DocumentDB distributes the connection requests among the Amazon DocumentDB replicas in the cluster. This functionality can help balance your read workload across multiple Amazon DocumentDB replicas in your cluster.

If a failover occurs, and the Amazon DocumentDB replica that you are connected to is promoted to be the primary instance, your connection is dropped. To continue sending your read workload to other Amazon DocumentDB replicas in the cluster, you can then reconnect to the reader endpoint.

MultiAZ -> (boolean)

Specifies whether the cluster has instances in multiple Availability Zones.

Engine -> (string)

Provides the name of the database engine to be used for this cluster.

EngineVersion -> (string)

Indicates the database engine version.

LatestRestorableTime -> (timestamp)

Specifies the latest time to which a database can be restored with point-in-time restore.

Port -> (integer)

Specifies the port that the database engine is listening on.

MasterUsername -> (string)

Contains the master user name for the cluster.

PreferredBackupWindow -> (string)

Specifies the daily time range during which automated backups are created if automated backups are enabled, as determined by the BackupRetentionPeriod .

PreferredMaintenanceWindow -> (string)

Specifies the weekly time range during which system maintenance can occur, in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

DBClusterMembers -> (list)

Provides the list of instances that make up the cluster.

(structure)

VpcSecurityGroups -> (list)

Provides a list of virtual private cloud (VPC) security groups that the cluster belongs to.

(structure)

Used as a response element for queries on virtual private cloud (VPC) security group membership.

VpcSecurityGroupId -> (string)

The name of the VPC security group.

ACTIVE - The IAM role ARN is associated with the cluster and can be used to access other AWS services on your behalf.

PENDING - The IAM role ARN is being associated with the DB cluster.

INVALID - The IAM role ARN is associated with the cluster, but the cluster cannot assume the IAM role to access other AWS services on your behalf.

ClusterCreateTime -> (timestamp)

Specifies the time when the cluster was created, in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

EnabledCloudwatchLogsExports -> (list)

A list of log types that this cluster is configured to export to Amazon CloudWatch Logs.
