switchover_global_cluster

DocDB.Client.switchover_global_cluster(**kwargs)

Switches over the specified secondary Amazon DocumentDB cluster to be the new primary Amazon DocumentDB cluster in the global database cluster.

See also: AWS API Documentation

Request Syntax

response = client.switchover_global_cluster(
    GlobalClusterIdentifier='string',
    TargetDbClusterIdentifier='string'
)
Parameters:
  • GlobalClusterIdentifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The identifier of the Amazon DocumentDB global database cluster to switch over. The identifier is the unique key assigned by the user when the cluster is created. In other words, it’s the name of the global cluster. This parameter isn’t case-sensitive.

    Constraints:

    • Must match the identifier of an existing global cluster (Amazon DocumentDB global database).

    • Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.

    Pattern: [A-Za-z][0-9A-Za-z-:._]*

  • TargetDbClusterIdentifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The identifier of the secondary Amazon DocumentDB cluster to promote to the new primary for the global database cluster. Use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the identifier so that Amazon DocumentDB can locate the cluster in its Amazon Web Services region.

    Constraints:

    • Must match the identifier of an existing secondary cluster.

    • Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.

    Pattern: [A-Za-z][0-9A-Za-z-:._]*

Return type:

dict

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • GlobalCluster (dict) –

      A data type representing an Amazon DocumentDB global cluster.

      • GlobalClusterIdentifier (string) –

        Contains a user-supplied global cluster identifier. This identifier is the unique key that identifies a global cluster.

      • GlobalClusterResourceId (string) –

        The Amazon Web Services RegionRegion-unique, immutable identifier for the global database cluster. This identifier is found in CloudTrail log entries whenever the KMS customer master key (CMK) for the cluster is accessed.

      • GlobalClusterArn (string) –

        The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the global cluster.

      • Status (string) –

        Specifies the current state of this global cluster.

      • Engine (string) –

        The Amazon DocumentDB database engine used by the global cluster.

      • EngineVersion (string) –

        Indicates the database engine version.

      • DatabaseName (string) –

        The default database name within the new global cluster.

      • StorageEncrypted (boolean) –

        The storage encryption setting for the global cluster.

      • DeletionProtection (boolean) –

        The deletion protection setting for the new global cluster.

      • GlobalClusterMembers (list) –

        The list of cluster IDs for secondary clusters within the global cluster. Currently limited to one item.

        • (dict) –

          A data structure with information about any primary and secondary clusters associated with an Amazon DocumentDB global clusters.

          • DBClusterArn (string) –

            The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for each Amazon DocumentDB cluster.

          • Readers (list) –

            The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for each read-only secondary cluster associated with the Amazon DocumentDB global cluster.

            • (string) –

          • IsWriter (boolean) –

            Specifies whether the Amazon DocumentDB cluster is the primary cluster (that is, has read-write capability) for the Amazon DocumentDB global cluster with which it is associated.

          • SynchronizationStatus (string) –

            The status of synchronization of each Amazon DocumentDB cluster in the global cluster.

      • FailoverState (dict) –

        A data object containing all properties for the current state of an in-process or pending switchover or failover process for this global cluster. This object is empty unless the SwitchoverGlobalCluster or FailoverGlobalCluster operation was called on this global cluster.

        • Status (string) –

          The current status of the global cluster. Possible values are as follows:

          • pending – The service received a request to switch over or fail over the global cluster. The global cluster’s primary cluster and the specified secondary cluster are being verified before the operation starts.

          • failing-over – The chosen secondary cluster is being promoted to become the new primary cluster to fail over the global cluster.

          • cancelling – The request to switch over or fail over the global cluster was cancelled and the primary cluster and the selected secondary cluster are returning to their previous states.

        • FromDbClusterArn (string) –

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon DocumentDB cluster that is currently being demoted, and which is associated with this state.

        • ToDbClusterArn (string) –

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon DocumentDB cluster that is currently being promoted, and which is associated with this state.

        • IsDataLossAllowed (boolean) –

          Indicates whether the operation is a global switchover or a global failover. If data loss is allowed, then the operation is a global failover. Otherwise, it’s a switchover.

      • TagList (list) –

        A list of global cluster tags.

        • (dict) –

          Metadata assigned to an Amazon DocumentDB resource consisting of a key-value pair.

          • Key (string) –

            The required name of the tag. The string value can be from 1 to 128 Unicode characters in length and can’t be prefixed with “ aws:” or “ rds:”. The string can contain only the set of Unicode letters, digits, white space, ‘_’, ‘.’, ‘/’, ‘=’, ‘+’, ‘-’ (Java regex: “^([\p{L}\p{Z}\p{N}_.:/=+\-]*)$”).

          • Value (string) –

            The optional value of the tag. The string value can be from 1 to 256 Unicode characters in length and can’t be prefixed with “ aws:” or “ rds:”. The string can contain only the set of Unicode letters, digits, white space, ‘_’, ‘.’, ‘/’, ‘=’, ‘+’, ‘-’ (Java regex: “^([\p{L}\p{Z}\p{N}_.:/=+\-]*)$”).
