Description
Creates a Redis (cluster mode disabled) or a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group.
A Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group is a collection of clusters, where one of the clusters is a read/write primary and the others are read-only replicas. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas.
A Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group is a collection of 1 to 15 node groups (shards). Each node group (shard) has one read/write primary node and up to 5 read-only replica nodes. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas. Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups partition the data across node groups (shards).
When a Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group has been successfully created, you can add one or more read replicas to it, up to a total of 5 read replicas. You cannot alter a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group after it has been created. However, if you need to increase or decrease the number of node groups (console: shards), you can avail yourself of ElastiCache for Redis' enhanced backup and restore. For more information, see Restoring From a Backup with Cluster Resizing in the ElastiCache User Guide.
This operation is valid for Redis only.
Parameters

A flag that enables encryption at rest when set to
true.You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the replication group is created. To enable encryption at rest on a replication group you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create the replication group.

-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)
If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials. Note that the encrypted credential file is not supported on all platforms. It will be skipped when searching for profiles on Windows Nano Server, Mac, and Linux platforms.
If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.
As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.

| Accept pipeline input? | False |
-ProfileName <String>

the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.
| Required? | False |
| Position? | Named |
