/#Action=CreateDBClusterParameterGroup

http://rds.{region}.amazonaws.com/#Action=CreateDBClusterParameterGroup

Creates a new DB cluster parameter group. Parameters in a DB cluster parameter group apply to all of the instances in a DB cluster. A DB cluster parameter group is initially created with the default parameters for the database engine used by instances in the DB cluster. To provide custom values for any of the parameters, you must modify the group after creating it using <code>ModifyDBClusterParameterGroup</code>. Once you've created a DB cluster parameter group, you need to associate it with your DB cluster using <code>ModifyDBCluster</code>. When you associate a new DB cluster parameter group with a running Aurora DB cluster, reboot the DB instances in the DB cluster without failover for the new DB cluster parameter group and associated settings to take effect. When you associate a new DB cluster parameter group with a running Multi-AZ DB cluster, reboot the DB cluster without failover for the new DB cluster parameter group and associated settings to take effect. <important> After you create a DB cluster parameter group, you should wait at least 5 minutes before creating your first DB cluster that uses that DB cluster parameter group as the default parameter group. This allows Amazon RDS to fully complete the create action before the DB cluster parameter group is used as the default for a new DB cluster. This is especially important for parameters that are critical when creating the default database for a DB cluster, such as the character set for the default database defined by the <code>character_set_database</code> parameter. You can use the Parameter Groups option of the <a href="https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/">Amazon RDS console</a> or the <code>DescribeDBClusterParameters</code> operation to verify that your DB cluster parameter group has been created or modified. </important> For more information on Amazon Aurora, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/CHAP_AuroraOverview.html"> What is Amazon Aurora?</a> in the Amazon Aurora User Guide. For more information on Multi-AZ DB clusters, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/multi-az-db-clusters-concepts.html"> Multi-AZ DB cluster deployments</a> in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

Query Params

DBClusterParameterGroupNamestringrequired

The name of the DB cluster parameter group. Constraints: <ul> <li> Must not match the name of an existing DB cluster parameter group. </li> </ul> <note> This value is stored as a lowercase string. </note>

DBParameterGroupFamilystringrequired

The DB cluster parameter group family name. A DB cluster parameter group can be associated with one and only one DB cluster parameter group family, and can be applied only to a DB cluster running a database engine and engine version compatible with that DB cluster parameter group family. Aurora MySQL Example: <code>aurora-mysql5.7</code>, <code>aurora-mysql8.0</code> Aurora PostgreSQL Example: <code>aurora-postgresql14</code> RDS for MySQL Example: <code>mysql8.0</code> RDS for PostgreSQL Example: <code>postgres12</code> To list all of the available parameter group families for a DB engine, use the following command: <code>aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --query "DBEngineVersions[].DBParameterGroupFamily" --engine <engine></code> For example, to list all of the available parameter group families for the Aurora PostgreSQL DB engine, use the following command: <code>aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --query "DBEngineVersions[].DBParameterGroupFamily" --engine aurora-postgresql</code> <note> The output contains duplicates. </note> The following are the valid DB engine values: <ul> <li> <code>aurora-mysql</code> </li> <li> <code>aurora-postgresql</code> </li> <li> <code>mysql</code> </li> <li> <code>postgres</code> </li> </ul>
