Description

Describes the properties of specific versions of DB engines.

Usage

rds_describe_db_engine_versions(Engine, EngineVersion,
  DBParameterGroupFamily, Filters, MaxRecords, Marker, DefaultOnly,
  ListSupportedCharacterSets, ListSupportedTimezones, IncludeAll)

Arguments

Engine

The database engine to return version details for.

Valid Values:

  • aurora-mysql

  • aurora-postgresql

  • custom-oracle-ee

  • custom-oracle-ee-cdb

  • custom-oracle-se2

  • custom-oracle-se2-cdb

  • db2-ae

  • db2-se

  • mariadb

  • mysql

  • oracle-ee

  • oracle-ee-cdb

  • oracle-se2

  • oracle-se2-cdb

  • postgres

  • sqlserver-ee

  • sqlserver-se

  • sqlserver-ex

  • sqlserver-web

EngineVersion

A specific database engine version to return details for.

Example: ⁠5.1.49⁠

DBParameterGroupFamily

The name of a specific DB parameter group family to return details for.

Constraints:

  • If supplied, must match an existing DB parameter group family.

Filters

A filter that specifies one or more DB engine versions to describe.

Supported filters:

  • db-parameter-group-family - Accepts parameter groups family names. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these parameter group families.

  • engine - Accepts engine names. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engines.

  • engine-mode - Accepts DB engine modes. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engine modes. Valid DB engine modes are the following:

    • global

    • multimaster

    • parallelquery

    • provisioned

    • serverless

  • engine-version - Accepts engine versions. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these engine versions.

  • status - Accepts engine version statuses. The results list only includes information about the DB engine versions for these statuses. Valid statuses are the following:

    • available

    • deprecated

MaxRecords

The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more than the MaxRecords value is available, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so you can retrieve the remaining results.

Default: 100

Constraints: Minimum 20, maximum 100.

Marker

An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by MaxRecords.

DefaultOnly

Specifies whether to return only the default version of the specified engine or the engine and major version combination.

ListSupportedCharacterSets

Specifies whether to list the supported character sets for each engine version.

If this parameter is enabled and the requested engine supports the CharacterSetName parameter for create_db_instance, the response includes a list of supported character sets for each engine version.

For RDS Custom, the default is not to list supported character sets. If you enable this parameter, RDS Custom returns no results.

ListSupportedTimezones

Specifies whether to list the supported time zones for each engine version.

If this parameter is enabled and the requested engine supports the TimeZone parameter for create_db_instance, the response includes a list of supported time zones for each engine version.

For RDS Custom, the default is not to list supported time zones. If you enable this parameter, RDS Custom returns no results.

IncludeAll

Specifies whether to also list the engine versions that aren't available. The default is to list only available engine versions.
