2018/09/17 - Amazon ElastiCache - 2 new 8 updated api methods
Changes ElastiCache for Redis added support for adding and removing read-replicas from any cluster with no cluster downtime, Shard naming: ElastiCache for Redis customers have the option of allowing ElastiCache to create names for their node groups (shards) or generating their own node group names. For more information, see https:// docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/APIReference/API_NodeGroupConfiguration.html, ShardsToRetain: When reducing the number of node groups (shards) in an ElastiCache for Redis (cluster mode enabled) you have the option of specifying which node groups to retain or which node groups to remove. For more information, see https:// docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/APIReference/API_ModifyReplicationGroupShardConfiguration.html, ReservationARN: ReservedNode includes an ARN, ReservationARN, member which identifies the reserved node. For more information, see https:// docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/APIReference/API_ReservedCacheNode.html
Dynamically increases the number of replics in a Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group or the number of replica nodes in one or more node groups (shards) of a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group. This operation is performed with no cluster down time.

string
[REQUIRED]
The id of the replication group to which you want to add replica nodes.
integer
The number of read replica nodes you want at the completion of this operation. For Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication groups, this is the number of replica nodes in the replication group. For Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups, this is the number of replica nodes in each of the replication group's node groups.
list
A list of ConfigureShard objects that can be used to configure each shard in a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group. The ConfigureShard has three members: NewReplicaCount , NodeGroupId , and PreferredAvailabilityZones .
(dict) --
Node group (shard) configuration options when adding or removing replicas. Each node group (shard) configuration has the following members: NodeGroupId, NewReplicaCount, and PreferredAvailabilityZones.
NodeGroupId (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The 4-digit id for the node group you are configuring. For Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication groups, the node group id is always 0001. To find a Redis (cluster mode enabled)'s node group's (shard's) id, see Finding a Shard's Id.
NewReplicaCount (integer) -- [REQUIRED]
The number of replicas you want in this node group at the end of this operation. The maximum value for NewReplicaCount is 5. The minimum value depends upon the type of Redis replication group you are working with.
The minimum number of replicas in a shard or replication group is:
Redis (cluster mode disabled)
If Multi-AZ with Automatic Failover is enabled: 1
If Multi-AZ with Automatic Failover is not enable: 0
Redis (cluster mode enabled): 0 (though you will not be able to failover to a replica if your primary node fails)
PreferredAvailabilityZones (list) --
A list of PreferredAvailabilityZone strings that specify which availability zones the replication group's nodes are to be in. The nummber of PreferredAvailabilityZone values must equal the value of NewReplicaCount plus 1 to account for the primary node. If this member of ReplicaConfiguration is omitted, ElastiCache for Redis selects the availability zone for each of the replicas.
(string) --
boolean
[REQUIRED]
If True , the number of replica nodes is increased immediately. If False , the number of replica nodes is increased during the next maintenance window.

Note
This operation is valid for Redis only.
Warning
Users or groups that have permissions to use the CopySnapshot operation can create their own Amazon S3 buckets and copy snapshots to it. To control access to your snapshots, use an IAM policy to control who has the ability to use the CopySnapshot operation. For more information about using IAM to control the use of ElastiCache operations, see Exporting Snapshots and Authentication & Access Control.
You could receive the following error messages.
Error Messages
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is outside of the region. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s does not exist. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is not owned by the authenticated user. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The authenticated user does not have sufficient permissions to perform the desired activity. Solution: Contact your system administrator to get the needed permissions.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s already contains an object with key %s. Solution: Give the TargetSnapshotName a new and unique value. If exporting a snapshot, you could alternatively create a new Amazon S3 bucket and use this same value for TargetSnapshotName .
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add List and Read permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted WRITE permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add Upload/Delete permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ_ACP permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add View Permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

{'NodeGroupConfiguration': {'NodeGroupId': 'string'}}
Creates a Redis (cluster mode disabled) or a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group.
A Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group is a collection of clusters, where one of the clusters is a read/write primary and the others are read-only replicas. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas.
A Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group is a collection of 1 to 15 node groups (shards). Each node group (shard) has one read/write primary node and up to 5 read-only replica nodes. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas. Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups partition the data across node groups (shards).
When a Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group has been successfully created, you can add one or more read replicas to it, up to a total of 5 read replicas. You cannot alter a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group after it has been created. However, if you need to increase or decrease the number of node groups (console: shards), you can avail yourself of ElastiCache for Redis' enhanced backup and restore. For more information, see Restoring From a Backup with Cluster Resizing in the ElastiCache User Guide .
Note
This operation is valid for Redis only.

Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.
Redis (cluster mode disabled): T1 and T2 cache node types.
Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.
integer
The number of clusters this replication group initially has.
This parameter is not used if there is more than one node group (shard). You should use ReplicasPerNodeGroup instead.
If AutomaticFailoverEnabled is true , the value of this parameter must be at least 2. If AutomaticFailoverEnabled is false you can omit this parameter (it will default to 1), or you can explicitly set it to a value between 2 and 6.
The maximum permitted value for NumCacheClusters is 6 (1 primary plus 5 replicas).

The ID of the cluster to which the node belongs.
CacheNodeId (string) --
The ID of the node within its cluster. A node ID is a numeric identifier (0001, 0002, etc.).
ReadEndpoint (dict) --
The information required for client programs to connect to a node for read operations. The read endpoint is only applicable on Redis (cluster mode disabled) clusters.
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.

SnapshottingClusterId (string) --
The cluster ID that is used as the daily snapshot source for the replication group.
AutomaticFailover (string) --
Indicates the status of Multi-AZ with automatic failover for this Redis replication group.
Amazon ElastiCache for Redis does not support Multi-AZ with automatic failover on:
Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.
Redis (cluster mode disabled): T1 and T2 cache node types.
Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.
ConfigurationEndpoint (dict) --
The configuration endpoint for this replication group. Use the configuration endpoint to connect to this replication group.
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.
Port (integer) --
The port number that the cache engine is listening on.
SnapshotRetentionLimit (integer) --
The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic cluster snapshots before deleting them. For example, if you set SnapshotRetentionLimit to 5, a snapshot that was taken today is retained for 5 days before being deleted.
Warning
If the value of SnapshotRetentionLimit is set to zero (0), backups are turned off.
SnapshotWindow (string) --
The daily time range (in UTC) during which ElastiCache begins taking a daily snapshot of your node group (shard).
Example: 05:00-09:00
If you do not specify this parameter, ElastiCache automatically chooses an appropriate time range.
Note
This parameter is only valid if the Engine parameter is redis .
ClusterEnabled (boolean) --
A flag indicating whether or not this replication group is cluster enabled; i.e., whether its data can be partitioned across multiple shards (API/CLI: node groups).
Valid values: true | false
CacheNodeType (string) --
The name of the compute and memory capacity node type for each node in the replication group.
AuthTokenEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables using an AuthToken (password) when issuing Redis commands.
Default: false
TransitEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables in-transit encryption when set to true .
You cannot modify the value of TransitEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable in-transit encryption on a cluster you must set TransitEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.
Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 or 4.x .
Default: false
AtRestEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables encryption at-rest when set to true .
You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable encryption at-rest on a cluster you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.
Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 or 4.x .
Default: false
