Scaling Up Storage Space

API Description

This API is used to scale up the storage space of a DB instance.

Constraints

  • This API supports both yearly/monthly and pay-per-use DB instances.
  • The storage space of a read replica in a cluster instance cannot be scaled up.

Authorization Information

Each account has all the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions.

  • If you are using role/policy-based authorization, see Permissions Policies and Supported Actions for details on the required permissions.
  • If you are using identity policy-based authorization, the following identity policy-based permissions are required.

Description

group_id

String

No

Definition

The role ID.

Constraints

  • This parameter is not specified for replica set instances.

Range

For a cluster instance, this parameter is set to the ID of the shard group.
