Deleting a scaling policy

You can delete a scaling policy using the Amazon Web Services Management Console, the Amazon CLI, or the Application Auto Scaling API.

Deleting a scaling policy using the Amazon Web Services Management Console

To delete an Auto Scaling policy for an ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster

  1. Sign in to the Amazon Web Services Management Console and open the Amazon ElastiCache console at https://console.amazonaws.cn/elasticache/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Redis OSS.

  3. Choose the cluster whose Auto Scaling policy you want to edit (choose the cluster name, not the button to its left).

  4. Choose the Auto Scaling policies tab.

  5. Under Scaling policies, choose the Auto Scaling policy, and then choose Delete.

Deleting a scaling policy using the Amazon CLI

To delete a scaling policy to your ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster, use the delete-scaling-policy Amazon CLI command with the following parameters:

  • --policy-name – The name of the scaling policy.

  • --resource-id – The resource identifier for the ElastiCache (Redis OSS). For this parameter, the resource type is ReplicationGroup and the unique identifier is the name of the ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster, for example replication-group/myscalablecluster.

  • --service-namespace – Set this value to elasticache.

  • --scalable-dimension – Set this value to elasticache:replication-group:NodeGroups.

In the following example, you delete a target-tracking scaling policy named myscalablepolicy from an ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster named myscalablecluster.

For Linux, OS X, or Unix:

aws application-autoscaling delete-scaling-policy \
    --policy-name myscalablepolicy \
    --resource-id replication-group/myscalablecluster \
    --service-namespace elasticache \
    --scalable-dimension elasticache:replication-group:NodeGroups

For Windows:

aws application-autoscaling delete-scaling-policy ^
    --policy-name myscalablepolicy ^
    --resource-id replication-group/myscalablecluster ^
    --service-namespace elasticache ^
    --scalable-dimension elasticache:replication-group:NodeGroups

Deleting a scaling policy using the API

To delete a scaling policy to your ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster, use the DeleteScalingPolicy Amazon CLI command with the following parameters:

  • --policy-name – The name of the scaling policy.

  • --resource-id – The resource identifier for the ElastiCache (Redis OSS). For this parameter, the resource type is ReplicationGroup and the unique identifier is the name of the ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster, for example replication-group/myscalablecluster.

  • --service-namespace – Set this value to elasticache.

  • --scalable-dimension – Set this value to elasticache:replication-group:NodeGroups.

In the following example, you delete a target-tracking scaling policy named myscalablepolicy from an ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster named myscalablecluster.
