Options

--cache-cluster-id (string)

The cluster identifier. This value is stored as a lowercase string.

--num-cache-nodes (integer)

The number of cache nodes that the cluster should have. If the value for NumCacheNodes is greater than the sum of the number of current cache nodes and the number of cache nodes pending creation (which may be zero), more nodes are added. If the value is less than the number of existing cache nodes, nodes are removed. If the value is equal to the number of current cache nodes, any pending add or remove requests are canceled.

If you are removing cache nodes, you must use the CacheNodeIdsToRemove parameter to provide the IDs of the specific cache nodes to remove.

For clusters running Redis, this value must be 1. For clusters running Memcached, this value must be between 1 and 40.

Note

Adding or removing Memcached cache nodes can be applied immediately or as a pending operation (see ApplyImmediately ).

A pending operation to modify the number of cache nodes in a cluster during its maintenance window, whether by adding or removing nodes in accordance with the scale out architecture, is not queued. The customer’s latest request to add or remove nodes to the cluster overrides any previous pending operations to modify the number of cache nodes in the cluster. For example, a request to remove 2 nodes would override a previous pending operation to remove 3 nodes. Similarly, a request to add 2 nodes would override a previous pending operation to remove 3 nodes and vice versa. As Memcached cache nodes may now be provisioned in different Availability Zones with flexible cache node placement, a request to add nodes does not automatically override a previous pending operation to add nodes. The customer can modify the previous pending operation to add more nodes or explicitly cancel the pending request and retry the new request. To cancel pending operations to modify the number of cache nodes in a cluster, use the ModifyCacheCluster request and set NumCacheNodes equal to the number of cache nodes currently in the cluster.

--cache-node-ids-to-remove (list)

A list of cache node IDs to be removed. A node ID is a numeric identifier (0001, 0002, etc.). This parameter is only valid when NumCacheNodes is less than the existing number of cache nodes. The number of cache node IDs supplied in this parameter must match the difference between the existing number of cache nodes in the cluster or pending cache nodes, whichever is greater, and the value of NumCacheNodes in the request.

For example: If you have 3 active cache nodes, 7 pending cache nodes, and the number of cache nodes in this ModifyCacheCluster call is 5, you must list 2 (7 - 5) cache node IDs to remove.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--az-mode (string)

Specifies whether the new nodes in this Memcached cluster are all created in a single Availability Zone or created across multiple Availability Zones.

Valid values: single-az | cross-az .

This option is only supported for Memcached clusters.

Note

You cannot specify single-az if the Memcached cluster already has cache nodes in different Availability Zones. If cross-az is specified, existing Memcached nodes remain in their current Availability Zone.

Only newly created nodes are located in different Availability Zones.

Possible values:

  • single-az

  • cross-az

--new-availability-zones (list)

Note

This option is only supported on Memcached clusters.

The list of Availability Zones where the new Memcached cache nodes are created.

This parameter is only valid when NumCacheNodes in the request is greater than the sum of the number of active cache nodes and the number of cache nodes pending creation (which may be zero). The number of Availability Zones supplied in this list must match the cache nodes being added in this request.

Scenarios:

  • Scenario 1: You have 3 active nodes and wish to add 2 nodes. Specify NumCacheNodes=5 (3 + 2) and optionally specify two Availability Zones for the two new nodes.

  • Scenario 2: You have 3 active nodes and 2 nodes pending creation (from the scenario 1 call) and want to add 1 more node. Specify NumCacheNodes=6 ((3 + 2) + 1) and optionally specify an Availability Zone for the new node.

  • Scenario 3: You want to cancel all pending operations. Specify NumCacheNodes=3 to cancel all pending operations.

The Availability Zone placement of nodes pending creation cannot be modified. If you wish to cancel any nodes pending creation, add 0 nodes by setting NumCacheNodes to the number of current nodes.

If cross-az is specified, existing Memcached nodes remain in their current Availability Zone. Only newly created nodes can be located in different Availability Zones. For guidance on how to move existing Memcached nodes to different Availability Zones, see the Availability Zone Considerations section of Cache Node Considerations for Memcached .

Impact of new add/remove requests upon pending requests

  • Scenario-1

    • Pending Action: Delete

    • New Request: Delete

    • Result: The new delete, pending or immediate, replaces the pending delete.

  • Scenario-2

    • Pending Action: Delete

    • New Request: Create

    • Result: The new create, pending or immediate, replaces the pending delete.

  • Scenario-3

    • Pending Action: Create

    • New Request: Delete

    • Result: The new delete, pending or immediate, replaces the pending create.

  • Scenario-4

    • Pending Action: Create

    • New Request: Create

    • Result: The new create is added to the pending create.

    Warning

    Important: If the new create request is Apply Immediately - Yes , all creates are performed immediately. If the new create request is Apply Immediately - No , all creates are pending.

(string)

Syntax:

If false , changes to the cluster are applied on the next maintenance reboot, or the next failure reboot, whichever occurs first.

Warning

If you perform a ModifyCacheCluster before a pending modification is applied, the pending modification is replaced by the newer modification.

Valid values: true | false

Default: false

--engine-version (string)

The upgraded version of the cache engine to be run on the cache nodes.

Important: You can upgrade to a newer engine version (see Selecting a Cache Engine and Version ), but you cannot downgrade to an earlier engine version. If you want to use an earlier engine version, you must delete the existing cluster and create it anew with the earlier engine version.

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json

  • text

  • table

  • yaml

  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64

  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

CacheNodeId -> (string)

The cache node identifier. A node ID is a numeric identifier (0001, 0002, etc.). The combination of cluster ID and node ID uniquely identifies every cache node used in a customer’s Amazon account.

CacheNodeStatus -> (string)

The current state of this cache node, one of the following values: available , creating , rebooting , or deleting .

CacheNodeCreateTime -> (timestamp)

The date and time when the cache node was created.

Endpoint -> (structure)

The hostname for connecting to this cache node.

Address -> (string)

The DNS hostname of the cache node.

Port -> (integer)

The port number that the cache engine is listening on.

ParameterGroupStatus -> (string)

The status of the parameter group applied to this cache node.

SourceCacheNodeId -> (string)

The ID of the primary node to which this read replica node is synchronized. If this field is empty, this node is not associated with a primary cluster.

CustomerAvailabilityZone -> (string)

The Availability Zone where this node was created and now resides.

CustomerOutpostArn -> (string)

The customer outpost ARN of the cache node.

AutoMinorVersionUpgrade -> (boolean)

If you are running Redis engine version 6.0 or later, set this parameter to yes if you want to opt-in to the next auto minor version upgrade campaign. This parameter is disabled for previous versions.

SecurityGroups -> (list)

A list of VPC Security Groups associated with the cluster.

(structure)

Represents a single cache security group and its status.

SecurityGroupId -> (string)

The identifier of the cache security group.

Status -> (string)

The status of the cache security group membership. The status changes whenever a cache security group is modified, or when the cache security groups assigned to a cluster are modified.

ReplicationGroupId -> (string)

The replication group to which this cluster belongs. If this field is empty, the cluster is not associated with any replication group.

SnapshotRetentionLimit -> (integer)

The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic cluster snapshots before deleting them. For example, if you set SnapshotRetentionLimit to 5, a snapshot that was taken today is retained for 5 days before being deleted.

Warning

If the value of SnapshotRetentionLimit is set to zero (0), backups are turned off.

SnapshotWindow -> (string)

The daily time range (in UTC) during which ElastiCache begins taking a daily snapshot of your cluster.

Example: 05:00-09:00

AuthTokenEnabled -> (boolean)

A flag that enables using an AuthToken (password) when issuing Redis commands.

Default: false

AuthTokenLastModifiedDate -> (timestamp)

The date the auth token was last modified

TransitEncryptionEnabled -> (boolean)

A flag that enables in-transit encryption when set to true .

You cannot modify the value of TransitEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable in-transit encryption on a cluster you must set TransitEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.

Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 , 4.x or later.

Default: false

AtRestEncryptionEnabled -> (boolean)

A flag that enables encryption at-rest when set to true .

You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable at-rest encryption on a cluster you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.

Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 , 4.x or later.

Default: false

ARN -> (string)

The ARN (Amazon Resource Name) of the cache cluster.

ReplicationGroupLogDeliveryEnabled -> (boolean)

A boolean value indicating whether log delivery is enabled for the replication group.

LogDeliveryConfigurations -> (list)

Returns the destination, format and type of the logs.

(structure)

Returns the destination, format and type of the logs.

LogType -> (string)

Refers to slow-log or engine-log.

DestinationType -> (string)

Returns the destination type, either cloudwatch-logs or kinesis-firehose .

DestinationDetails -> (structure)
