Testing the data migration - Amazon ElastiCache for Redis

Testing the data migration

After all prerequisites are complete, you can validate migration setup using the AWS Management Console, ElastiCache API, or AWS CLI. The following example shows using the CLI.

Test migration by calling the test-migration command with the following parameters:

  • --replication-group-id – The ID of the replication group to which data is to be migrated.

  • --customer-node-endpoint-list – List of endpoints from which data should be migrated. List should have only one element.

The following is an example using the CLI.

aws elasticache test-migration --replication-group-id test-cluster --customer-node-endpoint-list "Address='10.0.0.241',Port=6379"

ElastiCache will validate migration setup without any actual data migration.
