reboot-db-instance

Description

You might need to reboot your DB instance, usually for maintenance reasons. For example, if you make certain modifications, or if you change the DB parameter group associated with the DB instance, you must reboot the instance for the changes to take effect.

Rebooting a DB instance restarts the database engine service. Rebooting a DB instance results in a momentary outage, during which the DB instance status is set to rebooting.

For more information about rebooting, see Rebooting a DB Instance in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  reboot-db-instance
--db-instance-identifier <value>
[--force-failover | --no-force-failover]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--db-instance-identifier (string)

The DB instance identifier. This parameter is stored as a lowercase string.

Constraints:

  • Must match the identifier of an existing DBInstance.

--force-failover | --no-force-failover (boolean)

A value that indicates whether the reboot is conducted through a Multi-AZ failover.

Constraint: You can’t enable force failover if the instance isn’t configured for Multi-AZ.

--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.
