Synopsis

  describe-rds-db-instances
--stack-id <value>
[--rds-db-instance-arns <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--stack-id (string)

The ID of the stack with which the instances are registered. The operation returns descriptions of all registered Amazon RDS instances.

--rds-db-instance-arns (list)

An array containing the ARNs of the instances to be described.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To describe a stack’s registered Amazon RDS instances

The following example describes the Amazon RDS instances registered with a specified stack.

aws opsworks --region us-east-1 describe-rds-db-instances --stack-id d72553d4-8727-448c-9b00-f024f0ba1b06

Output: The following is the output for a stack with one registered RDS instance.

{
  "RdsDbInstances": [
    {
      "Engine": "mysql",
      "StackId": "d72553d4-8727-448c-9b00-f024f0ba1b06",
      "MissingOnRds": false,
      "Region": "us-west-2",
      "RdsDbInstanceArn": "arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:db:clitestdb",
      "DbPassword": "*****FILTERED*****",
      "Address": "clitestdb.cdlqlk5uwd0k.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com",
      "DbUser": "cliuser",
      "DbInstanceIdentifier": "clitestdb"
    }
  ]
}

Output

RdsDbInstances -> (list)

An a array of RdsDbInstance objects that describe the instances.

(structure)

Describes an Amazon RDS instance.

RdsDbInstanceArn -> (string)

The instance’s ARN.

DbInstanceIdentifier -> (string)

The DB instance identifier.

DbUser -> (string)

The master user name.

DbPassword -> (string)

AWS OpsWorks Stacks returns *****FILTERED***** instead of the actual value.

Region -> (string)

The instance’s AWS region.

Address -> (string)

The instance’s address.

Engine -> (string)

The instance’s database engine.

StackId -> (string)

The ID of the stack with which the instance is registered.

MissingOnRds -> (boolean)

Set to true if AWS OpsWorks Stacks is unable to discover the Amazon RDS instance. AWS OpsWorks Stacks attempts to discover the instance only once. If this value is set to true , you must deregister the instance, and then register it again.
