create_cluster(**kwargs)¶

Creates a new AWS CloudHSM cluster.

Request Syntax

response = client.create_cluster(
    BackupRetentionPolicy={
        'Type': 'DAYS',
        'Value': 'string'
    },
    HsmType='string',
    SourceBackupId='string',
    SubnetIds=[
        'string',
    ],
    TagList=[
        {
            'Key': 'string',
            'Value': 'string'
        },
    ]
)

Parameters

BackupRetentionPolicy (dict) --
A policy that defines how the service retains backups.
- Type (string) --
  The type of backup retention policy. For the DAYS type, the value is the number of days to retain backups.
- Value (string) --
  Use a value between 7 - 379.
HsmType (string) --
[REQUIRED]

The type of HSM to use in the cluster. Currently the only allowed value is hsm1.medium .
SourceBackupId (string) -- The identifier (ID) of the cluster backup to restore. Use this value to restore the cluster from a backup instead of creating a new cluster. To find the backup ID, use DescribeBackups.
SubnetIds (list) --
[REQUIRED]

The identifiers (IDs) of the subnets where you are creating the cluster. You must specify at least one subnet. If you specify multiple subnets, they must meet the following criteria:
- All subnets must be in the same virtual private cloud (VPC).
- You can specify only one subnet per Availability Zone.
- (string) --
TagList (list) --
Tags to apply to the CloudHSM cluster during creation.
- (dict) --
  Contains a tag. A tag is a key-value pair.
  - Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]
    The key of the tag.
  - Value (string) -- [REQUIRED]
    The value of the tag.
