Stopping a database activity stream
You can stop an activity stream using the console or AWS CLI.
If you delete your DB cluster, the activity stream is stopped and the underlying Amazon Kinesis stream is deleted automatically.
To turn off an activity stream
-
Open the Amazon RDS console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/
. -
In the navigation pane, choose Databases.
-
Choose a DB cluster that you want to stop the database activity stream for.
-
For Actions, choose Stop activity stream. The Database Activity Stream window appears.
-
Choose Immediately.
When you choose Immediately, the DB cluster restarts right away. If you choose During the next maintenance window, the DB cluster doesn't restart right away. In this case, the database activity stream doesn't stop until the next maintenance window.
-
Choose Continue.
-
To stop database activity streams for your DB cluster, configure the DB cluster using the AWS CLI command stop-activity-stream. Identify the AWS Region for the
DB cluster using the
--region
parameter. The --apply-immediately
parameter is optional.
For Linux, macOS, or Unix:
aws rds --region
MY_REGION
\ stop-activity-stream \ --resource-arnMY_CLUSTER_ARN
\ --apply-immediately
For Windows:
aws rds --region
MY_REGION
^ stop-activity-stream ^ --resource-arnMY_CLUSTER_ARN
^ --apply-immediately
To stop database activity streams for your DB cluster, configure the cluster using the StopActivityStream operation. Identify the AWS Region for the DB
cluster using the Region
parameter. The
ApplyImmediately
parameter is optional.
