NAME

       elasticache-describe-cache-parameter-groups - Describe existing parameter groups

SYNOPSIS

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

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'.
