SYNOPSIS

        elasticache-describe-cache-parameter-groups
           [CacheParameterGroupName] [--marker  value ] [--max-records   value
       ]

DESCRIPTION

           Returns  information  about  all  the  parameter  groups  for  this
       account, up to
        --max-records. If you  pass  in  a  CacheParameterGroupName,  it  will
       return
        information only about that parameter group.

ARGUMENTS

        CacheParameterGroupName
           User-supplied  cache  parameter  group  name. You can also set this
       value
           using "--cache-parameter-group-name".

GENERAL OPTIONS

        --aws-credential-file VALUE
           Location of the file with your AWS credentials. This value  can  be
       set by
           using the environment variable 'AWS_CREDENTIAL_FILE'.

        --connection-timeout VALUE
           Specify a connection timeout VALUE (in seconds) for API calls. The
           default value is '30'.

        --debug
           If  an  error  occurs  while  --debug  is  used,  it  will  display
       information
           useful for debugging the problem. The default value is 'false'.

        --delimiter VALUE
           What delimiter to use when displaying delimited (long) results.

        --headers
           If you are displaying tabular or delimited results, it includes the
           column headers. If you are showing xml results, it returns the HTTP
           headers from the service request, if applicable.  This  is  off  by
       default.

        -I, --access-key-id VALUE
           Specify the AWS Access ID to use.

        --marker VALUE
           The marker provided in the previous request. If this parameter is
           specified  the response includes only records beyond the marker, up
       to
           MaxRecords.

        --max-records VALUE
           Maximum number of records to return per page. Allowed  value  range
       for
           this parameter is 20-100, default value is 100.

        --region VALUE
           Specify  region  VALUE as the web service region to use. This value
       can be
           set by using the environment variable 'EC2_REGION'.

        -S, --secret-key VALUE
           Specify the AWS Secret Key to use.

        --show-empty-fields
           Show empty fields and rows, using a "(nil)" value. The  default  is
       to not
           show empty fields or columns.

        --show-request
           Displays  the  URL  used  by the tools to call the AWS Service. The
       default
           value is 'false'.

        --show-table, --show-long, --show-xml, --quiet
           Specify how the results are displayed: tabular,  delimited  (long),
       xml, or
           no output (quiet). Tabular shows a subset of the data in fixed
           column-width  form,  while  long  shows  all of the returned values
       delimited
           by a character. The xml is the raw return from the  service,  while
       quiet
           suppresses   all  standard  output.  The  default  is  tabular,  or
       'show-table'.

        -U, --url VALUE
           This option will override the URL for the service call with  VALUE.
       This
           value    can   be   set   by   using   the   environment   variable
       'AWS_ELASTICACHE_URL'.
