CreateDBParameterGroup
Creates a new DB parameter group.
A DB parameter group is initially created with the default parameters for the database engine used by the DB instance. To provide custom values for any of the parameters, you must modify the group after creating it using ModifyDBParameterGroup. Once you've created a DB parameter group, you need to associate it with your DB instance using ModifyDBInstance. When you associate a new DB parameter group with a running DB instance, you need to reboot the DB instance without failover for the new DB parameter group and associated settings to take effect.
Important
After you create a DB parameter group, you should wait at least 5 minutes before
creating your first DB instance that uses that DB parameter group as the default parameter
group. This allows Amazon Neptune to fully complete the create action before the parameter
group is used as the default for a new DB instance. This is especially important for
parameters that are critical when creating the default database for a DB instance, such as
the character set for the default database defined by the
character_set_database parameter. You can use the Parameter
Groups option of the Amazon Neptune console or the
DescribeDBParameters command to verify that your DB parameter group has
been created or modified.
