list-recovery-points-by-backup-vault

Description

Returns detailed information about the recovery points stored in a backup vault.

See also: AWS API Documentation

list-recovery-points-by-backup-vault is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: RecoveryPoints

Options

--backup-vault-name (string)

The name of a logical container where backups are stored. Backup vaults are identified by names that are unique to the account used to create them and the Amazon Web Services Region where they are created. They consist of lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.

Note

Backup vault name might not be available when a supported service creates the backup.

--backup-vault-account-id (string)

This parameter will sort the list of recovery points by account ID.

--by-resource-arn (string)

Returns only recovery points that match the specified resource Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

--by-resource-type (string)

Returns only recovery points that match the specified resource type(s):

  • Aurora for Amazon Aurora
  • CloudFormation for CloudFormation
  • DocumentDB for Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)
  • DynamoDB for Amazon DynamoDB
  • EBS for Amazon Elastic Block Store
  • EC2 for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud
  • EFS for Amazon Elastic File System
  • FSx for Amazon FSx
  • Neptune for Amazon Neptune
  • Redshift for Amazon Redshift
  • RDS for Amazon Relational Database Service
  • SAP HANA on Amazon EC2 for SAP HANA databases
  • Storage Gateway for Storage Gateway
  • S3 for Amazon S3
  • Timestream for Amazon Timestream
  • VirtualMachine for virtual machines

--by-backup-plan-id (string)

Returns only recovery points that match the specified backup plan ID.

--by-created-before (timestamp)

Returns only recovery points that were created before the specified timestamp.

--by-created-after (timestamp)

Returns only recovery points that were created after the specified timestamp.

--by-parent-recovery-point-arn (string)

This returns only recovery points that match the specified parent (composite) recovery point Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

A timestamp that specifies when to transition a recovery point to cold storage.

DeleteAt -> (timestamp)

A timestamp that specifies when to delete a recovery point.

Lifecycle -> (structure)

The lifecycle defines when a protected resource is transitioned to cold storage and when it expires. Backup transitions and expires backups automatically according to the lifecycle that you define.

Backups transitioned to cold storage must be stored in cold storage for a minimum of 90 days. Therefore, the “retention” setting must be 90 days greater than the “transition to cold after days” setting. The “transition to cold after days” setting cannot be changed after a backup has been transitioned to cold.

Resource types that are able to be transitioned to cold storage are listed in the "Lifecycle to cold storage" section of the Feature availability by resource table. Backup ignores this expression for other resource types.

MoveToColdStorageAfterDays -> (long)

Specifies the number of days after creation that a recovery point is moved to cold storage.

DeleteAfterDays -> (long)

Specifies the number of days after creation that a recovery point is deleted. Must be greater than 90 days plus MoveToColdStorageAfterDays .

Optional Boolean. If this is true, this setting will instruct your backup plan to transition supported resources to archive (cold) storage tier in accordance with your lifecycle settings.

EncryptionKeyArn -> (string)

The server-side encryption key that is used to protect your backups; for example, arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab .
