Migrating a DB Instance to Another AZ

API Description

This API is used to migrate a DB instance to another AZ.

Service will be interrupted for up to 60 seconds while the AZ is being changed. The time required to change an AZ depends on the amount of data to be migrated. The entire migration process may take an hour. You are advised to use the HA connection to access the instance or configure your client to automatically reconnect to the instance.

Restrictions

  • DDS Community Edition clusters and replica sets support this operation.
  • Cross-AZ instances do not support this operation.
  • DB instances created using an IPv6 subnet do not support this operation.
  • Read replicas or inactive standby nodes in a replica set instance do not support this operation.
  • If a cluster instance has read replicas associated, the instance cannot be migrated to another AZ.
