Replicating a Parameter Template

You can replicate a parameter template that you have created. When you have already created a parameter template and want to use most of the custom parameters and values from that template to a new parameter template, you can replicate that parameter template. You can also export a parameter template of a DB instance for future use.

Default parameter templates cannot be replicated, but you can create custom parameter templates based on the default templates provided.

Procedure

Log in to the management console.
In the service list, choose Databases > GeminiDB Redis API.
In the navigation pane on the left, choose Parameter Templates.
On the Parameter Templates page, click the Custom Templates tab. Locate the parameter template that you want to replicate and click Replicate in the Operation column.
Alternatively, click the instance name on the Instances page. On the Parameters page, click Export to generate a new parameter template for future use.
In the displayed dialog box, enter a parameter template name and description and click OK.
