Options¶

--global-replication-group-id (string)

The name of the Global datastore

--show-member-info | --no-show-member-info (boolean)

Returns the list of members that comprise the Global datastore.

--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. 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. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--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)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

on
off
auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--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)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To describe global replication groups

The following describe-global-replication-groups example returns details of a Global datastore.

aws elasticache describe-global-replication-groups \
    --global-replication-group-id my-grg

Output:

{
    "GlobalReplicationGroups": [
        {
            "GlobalReplicationGroupId": "my-grg",
            "GlobalReplicationGroupDescription": "my-grg",
            "Status": "creating",
            "CacheNodeType": "cache.r5.large",
            "Engine": "redis",
            "EngineVersion": "5.0.6",
            "ClusterEnabled": false,
            "AuthTokenEnabled": false,
            "TransitEncryptionEnabled": false,
            "AtRestEncryptionEnabled": false
        }
    ]
}

Output¶

Marker -> (string)

An optional marker returned from a prior request. Use this marker for pagination of results from this operation. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by MaxRecords. >

GlobalReplicationGroups -> (list)

Indicates the slot configuration and global identifier for each slice group.

(structure)

Consists of a primary cluster that accepts writes and an associated secondary cluster that resides in a different Amazon region. The secondary cluster accepts only reads. The primary cluster automatically replicates updates to the secondary cluster.

The GlobalReplicationGroupIdSuffix represents the name of the Global datastore, which is what you use to associate a secondary cluster.

GlobalReplicationGroupId -> (string)

The name of the Global datastore

GlobalReplicationGroupDescription -> (string)

The optional description of the Global datastore

Status -> (string)

The status of the Global datastore

CacheNodeType -> (string)

The cache node type of the Global datastore

Engine -> (string)

The ElastiCache engine. For Valkey or Redis OSS only.

EngineVersion -> (string)

The ElastiCache engine version.

Members -> (list)

The replication groups that comprise the Global datastore.

(structure)

A member of a Global datastore. It contains the Replication Group Id, the Amazon region and the role of the replication group.

ReplicationGroupId -> (string)

The replication group id of the Global datastore member.

ReplicationGroupRegion -> (string)

The Amazon region of the Global datastore member.

Role -> (string)

Indicates the role of the replication group, primary or secondary.

AutomaticFailover -> (string)

Indicates whether automatic failover is enabled for the replication group.

Status -> (string)

The status of the membership of the replication group.

ClusterEnabled -> (boolean)

A flag that indicates whether the Global datastore is cluster enabled.

GlobalNodeGroups -> (list)

Indicates the slot configuration and global identifier for each slice group.

(structure)

Indicates the slot configuration and global identifier for a slice group.

GlobalNodeGroupId -> (string)

The name of the global node group

Slots -> (string)

The keyspace for this node group

AuthTokenEnabled -> (boolean)

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

Default: false

TransitEncryptionEnabled -> (boolean)

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

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

AtRestEncryptionEnabled -> (boolean)

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

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