aws-rds: How to enable final snapshot for Aurora Cluster #24577
Description
Describe the bug
I am creating database cluster, and i want to enable final snapshot. After creation of the rds, when i navigate to the console, upon modifying the deletion protection and delete the cluster, i dont see the option for "create final snapshot"
here is the code:
.cluster = new DatabaseCluster(this, 'Cluster', {
engine: rds.DatabaseClusterEngine.auroraPostgres(this.newProps),
credentials: auroraClusterCrendentials,
cloudwatchLogsRetention: logs.RetentionDays.ONE_YEAR,
clusterIdentifier:" namee",
instanceProps:
{
instanceType: props.instanceType,
vpcSubnets: {
subnetType: ec2.SubnetType.PRIVATE_WITH_EGRESS,
},
vpc: existingVpc,
},
parameterGroup: clusterParameterGroup,
iamAuthentication: true,
deletionProtection: deletionProtection,
});
Expected Behavior
I wanted to see create final snapshot selected, is there a way to enable create final snapshot for rds cluster
Current Behavior
Reproduction Steps
-
Create cluster with above code through cdk,
-
cdk deploy
-
navigate to the console and modify the cluster to turn off delete protection
-
try to delete either the reader or writer instance
the above screen shows up instead of seeing final snapshot option. Could you please tell me how to enable final snapshot option through cdk. I couldn't find info on that. Thanks

Hi
Have you tried removalPolicy.SNAPSHOT ? When this specified, when you destroy the cluster with CDK, the latest snapshot of the database cluster should be taken.

@pahud Okay I will try that now. Thanks! One more question how do i set the name of the cluster parameter group and instance parameter group? I dont see a property to set the name from CDK documentation. I dot want to see the auto generated string. Could you please help?

@MetadelDes
cluster parameter should be https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_rds.DatabaseCluster.html#parametergroup and instance parameter should be defined in
instancePropshttps://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_rds.InstanceProps.html#parametergroupPlease note I haven't verified it in my account yet but according to the doc it should work.

I am converting this issue to discussion for general guidance.
