Viewing Amazon RDS Events
Amazon RDS keeps a record of events that relate to your DB Instances, DB Snapshots, DB Security Groups, and DB Parameter Groups. This information includes the date and time of the event, the source name and source type of the event, and a message associated with the event. You can easily retrieve events for your RDS resources through the AWS Management Console, the rds-describe-events CLI command, or the DescribeEvents API.
In this example, you view all Amazon RDS events for the past 24 hours (specified in seconds).
AWS Management Console

You can use the Viewing drop-down list box to filter the events by type, and you can use the text box to the right of the Viewing drop-down list box to further filter your results.
