rds-create-db-instance-read-replica - Create a read-replica database instance
SYNOPSIS
rds-create-db-instance-read-replica
DBInstanceIdentifier --source-db-instance-identifier value
[--auto-minor-version-upgrade value ] [--availability-zone value ]
[--db-instance-class value ] [--iops value ] [--option-group value ]
[--port value ] [General Options]
DESCRIPTION
Creates a DB Instance which acts as a read replica of a source DB Instance.
The source DB Instance must have backup retention enabled.
ARGUMENTS
DBInstanceIdentifier
Identifier of the read replica to be created. You can also set this value
using "--db-instance-identifier". Required.
SPECIFIC OPTIONS
-au, --auto-minor-version-upgrade VALUE
Whether minor version upgrades will automatically be applied to the read
replica during its maintenance window.
-c, --db-instance-class VALUE
The compute and memory capacity of the read replica. Valid values:
db.m1.small, db.m1.large, db.m1.xlarge, db.m2.2xlarge, db.m2.4xlarge.
Defaults to the same instance class as the source DB Instance.
--iops VALUE
Provisioned storage I/O operations per second. If this parameter is not
specified, the value will be copied from the master. If this parameter is
set to 0 (zero), the read replica will not have Provisioned IOPS.
-og, --option-group VALUE
The option group with which the database instance will be associated
with. If omitted, the default Option Group for the engine specified will
be used.
-p, --port VALUE
Port number on which the read replica will accept connections. Defaults
to the same port as the source DB Instance.
-s, --source-db-instance-identifier VALUE
Identifier of the DB Instance which the read replica is to replicate.
Required.
-z, --availability-zone VALUE
The name of the EC2 Availability Zone where the read replica will be
created. Defaults to a system-chosen (random) availability zone.
GENERAL OPTIONS
--aws-credential-file VALUE
Location of the file with your AWS credentials. Must not be specified in
conjunction with --ec2-cert-file-path or --ec2-private-key-file-path.
This value can be set by using the environment variable
'AWS_CREDENTIAL_FILE'.
-C, --ec2-cert-file-path VALUE
Path to AWS X.509 certificate file. Must be specified in conjunction with
--ec2-private-key-file-path and must not be specified in conjunction with
--aws-credential-file. This value can be set by using the environment
variable 'EC2_CERT'.
--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.
-K, --ec2-private-key-file-path VALUE
Path to AWS X.509 private key file. Must be specified in conjunction with
--ec2-cert-file-path and must not be specified in conjunction with
--aws-credential-file. This value can be set by using the environment
variable 'EC2_PRIVATE_KEY'.
--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.
--service-sig-name VALUE
Specify the service name to use when signing requests. The default is
"rds". This value can be set by using the environment variable
'SERVICE_SIG_NAME'.
--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 'RDS_URL'.

defaults

that identifies a database instance.
* Created - When the instance was created, in UTC.
* Class - The compute and memory capacity of the database instance.
* Engine - Name of the database engine to be used for this database
instance.

available.
* PendingClass - The class to which the instance will be scaled during the
next maintenance window, or to which it is currently being scaled if the
--apply-immediately option was specified.
* PendingCredentials - Indicates a pending or in-progress change of the
