Deleting a parameter group - Amazon MemoryDB

Deleting a parameter group

You can delete a custom parameter group using the MemoryDB console, the AWS CLI, or the MemoryDB API.

You cannot delete a parameter group if it is associated with any clusters. Nor can you delete any of the default parameter groups.

Deleting a parameter group (Console)

The following procedure shows how to delete a parameter group using the MemoryDB console.

To delete a parameter group using the MemoryDB console
  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the MemoryDB console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/memorydb/.

Deleting a parameter group (AWS CLI)

To delete a parameter group using the AWS CLI, use the command delete-parameter-group. For the parameter group to delete, the parameter group specified by --parameter-group-name cannot have any clusters associated with it, nor can it be a default parameter group.

The following sample code deletes the myRedis6x parameter group.

For Linux, macOS, or Unix:

aws memorydb delete-parameter-group \ --parameter-group-name myRedis6x

For Windows:

aws memorydb delete-parameter-group ^ --parameter-group-name myRedis6x

For more information, see delete-parameter-group.

Deleting a parameter group (MemoryDB API)

To delete a parameter group using the MemoryDB API, use the DeleteParameterGroup action. For the parameter group to delete, the parameter group specified by ParameterGroupName cannot have any clusters associated with it, nor can it be a default parameter group.
