Description

Downloads all or a portion of the specified log file, up to 1 MB in size. This command doesn't apply to RDS Custom.

In the AWS.Tools.RDS module, this cmdlet automatically pages all available results to the pipeline - parameters related to iteration are only needed if you want to manually control the paginated output. To disable autopagination, use -NoAutoIteration.

-Marker <String>
The pagination token provided in the previous request or "0". If the Marker parameter is specified the response includes only records beyond the marker until the end of the file or up to NumberOfLines.
Note: In the AWS.Tools.RDS module, this parameter is only used if you are manually controlling output pagination of the service API call.
In order to manually control output pagination, use '-Marker $null' for the first call and '-Marker $AWSHistory.LastServiceResponse.Marker' for subsequent calls.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesNextToken
-NumberOfLines <Int32>
The number of lines to download. If the number of lines specified results in a file over 1 MB in size, the file is truncated at 1 MB in size.If the NumberOfLines parameter is specified, then the block of lines returned can be from the beginning or the end of the log file, depending on the value of the Marker parameter.
  • If neither Marker or NumberOfLines are specified, the entire log file is returned up to a maximum of 10000 lines, starting with the most recent log entries first.
  • If NumberOfLines is specified and Marker isn't specified, then the most recent lines from the end of the log file are returned.
  • If Marker is specified as "0", then the specified number of lines from the beginning of the log file are returned.
  • You can download the log file in blocks of lines by specifying the size of the block using the NumberOfLines parameter, and by specifying a value of "0" for the Marker parameter in your first request. Include the Marker value returned in the response as the Marker value for the next request, continuing until the AdditionalDataPending response element returns false.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the DBInstanceIdentifier parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^DBInstanceIdentifier' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False

-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is '*'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.RDS.Model.DownloadDBLogFilePortionResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.RDS.Model.DownloadDBLogFilePortionResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
