<p>The name of a specific DB parameter group family to return details for.</p> <p>Constraints:</p> <ul> <li> <p>If supplied, must match an existing DBParameterGroupFamily.</p> </li> </ul>
<p>A filter that specifies one or more DB engine versions to describe.</p> <p>Supported filters:</p> <ul> <li> <p> <code>db-parameter-group-family</code> - Accepts parameter groups family names. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these parameter group families.</p> </li> <li> <p> <code>engine</code> - Accepts engine names. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engines.</p> </li> <li> <p> <code>engine-mode</code> - Accepts DB engine modes. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engine modes. Valid DB engine modes are the following:</p> <ul> <li> <p> <code>global</code> </p> </li> <li> <p> <code>multimaster</code> </p> </li> <li> <p> <code>parallelquery</code> </p> </li> <li> <p> <code>provisioned</code> </p> </li> <li> <p> <code>serverless</code> </p> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <p> <code>engine-version</code> - Accepts engine versions. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engine versions.</p> </li> <li> <p> <code>status</code> - Accepts engine version statuses. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these statuses. Valid statuses are the following:</p> <ul> <li> <p> <code>available</code> </p> </li> <li> <p> <code>deprecated</code> </p> </li> </ul> </li> </ul>
<p>The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more than the <code>MaxRecords</code> value is available, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so you can retrieve the remaining results.</p> <p>Default: 100</p> <p>Constraints: Minimum 20, maximum 100.</p>
An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by <code>MaxRecords</code>.
A value that indicates whether only the default version of the specified engine or engine and major version combination is returned.
<p>A value that indicates whether to list the supported character sets for each engine version.</p> <p>If this parameter is enabled and the requested engine supports the <code>CharacterSetName</code> parameter for <code>CreateDBInstance</code>, the response includes a list of supported character sets for each engine version.</p> <p>For RDS Custom, the default is not to list supported character sets. If you set <code>ListSupportedCharacterSets</code> to <code>true</code>, RDS Custom returns no results.</p>
<p>A value that indicates whether to list the supported time zones for each engine version.</p> <p>If this parameter is enabled and the requested engine supports the <code>TimeZone</code> parameter for <code>CreateDBInstance</code>, the response includes a list of supported time zones for each engine version.</p> <p>For RDS Custom, the default is not to list supported time zones. If you set <code>ListSupportedTimezones</code> to <code>true</code>, RDS Custom returns no results.</p>
A value that indicates whether to include engine versions that aren't available in the list. The default is to list only available engine versions.
