Importing a Parameter Template

RDS allows you to import new parameter templates for future use. To apply an imported parameter template to new DB instances, see Applying a Parameter Template.

Constraints

  • Only parameter templates that were exported from the Parameter Templates page on the RDS console can be imported.
  • If any modification to an exported parameter template causes a change in the file format, the template may not be able to be imported.
  • The parameter template to be imported cannot contain parameters related to specifications.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Databases > Relational Database Service.
  3. On the Parameter Templates page, click Import Parameter Template.
  4. In the displayed dialog box, click Select File, import the target parameter list (containing parameter names, values, and description), and click OK.

    Only one file (CSV format) can be imported at a time. The file size cannot exceed 50 KB.
