Request Syntax

response = client.describe_cluster_versions(
    ClusterVersion='string',
    ClusterParameterGroupFamily='string',
    MaxRecords=123,
    Marker='string'
)
Parameters
  • ClusterVersion (string) --

    The specific cluster version to return.

    Example: 1.0

  • ClusterParameterGroupFamily (string) --

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

    Constraints:

    • Must be 1 to 255 alphanumeric characters
    • First character must be a letter
    • Cannot end with a hyphen or contain two consecutive hyphens
  • MaxRecords (integer) --

    The maximum number of response records to return in each call. If the number of remaining response records exceeds the specified MaxRecords value, a value is returned in a marker field of the response. You can retrieve the next set of records by retrying the command with the returned marker value.

    Default: 100

    Constraints: minimum 20, maximum 100.

  • Marker (string) -- An optional parameter that specifies the starting point to return a set of response records. When the results of a DescribeClusterVersions request exceed the value specified in MaxRecords , Amazon Web Services returns a value in the Marker field of the response. You can retrieve the next set of response records by providing the returned marker value in the Marker parameter and retrying the request.
