Creates a new database from an existing database snapshot in Amazon Lightsail

Description

Creates a new database from an existing database snapshot in Amazon Lightsail.

You can create a new database from a snapshot in if something goes wrong with your original database, or to change it to a different plan, such as a high availability or standard plan.

The create relational database from snapshot operation supports tag-based access control via request tags and resource tags applied to the resource identified by relationalDatabaseSnapshotName. For more information, see the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.

Usage

lightsail_create_relational_database_from_snapshot(
  relationalDatabaseName, availabilityZone, publiclyAccessible,
  relationalDatabaseSnapshotName, relationalDatabaseBundleId,
  sourceRelationalDatabaseName, restoreTime, useLatestRestorableTime,
  tags)

Arguments

  • relationalDatabaseName

    [required] The name to use for your new Lightsail database resource.

    Constraints:

    • Must contain from 2 to 255 alphanumeric characters, or hyphens.
    • The first and last character must be a letter or number.
  • availabilityZone

    The Availability Zone in which to create your new database. Use the us-east-2a case-sensitive format.

    You can get a list of Availability Zones by using the get regions operation. Be sure to add the include relational database Availability Zones parameter to your request.

  • publiclyAccessible

    Specifies the accessibility options for your new database. A value of true specifies a database that is available to resources outside of your Lightsail account. A value of false specifies a database that is available only to your Lightsail resources in the same region as your database.

  • relationalDatabaseSnapshotName

    The name of the database snapshot from which to create your new database.

  • relationalDatabaseBundleId

    The bundle ID for your new database. A bundle describes the performance specifications for your database.

    You can get a list of database bundle IDs by using the get relational database bundles operation.

    When creating a new database from a snapshot, you cannot choose a bundle that is smaller than the bundle of the source database.

  • sourceRelationalDatabaseName

    The name of the source database.

  • restoreTime

    The date and time to restore your database from.

    Constraints:

    • Must be before the latest restorable time for the database.
    • Cannot be specified if the use latest restorable time parameter is true.
    • Specified in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
    • Specified in the Unix time format.

      For example, if you wish to use a restore time of October 1, 2018, at 8 PM UTC, then you input 1538424000 as the restore time.

  • useLatestRestorableTime

    Specifies whether your database is restored from the latest backup time. A value of true restores from the latest backup time.

    Default: false

    Constraints: Cannot be specified if the restore time parameter is provided.

  • tags

    The tag keys and optional values to add to the resource during create.

    Use the tag_resource action to tag a resource after it's created.
