<a name="update-dra-settings"></a>

You can update an existing data repository association's settings using the AWS Management Console, the AWS CLI, and the Amazon FSx API, as shown in the following procedures.

**Note**  
You cannot update the `File system path` or `Data repository path` of a DRA after it's created. If you want to change the `File system path` or `Data repository path`, you must delete the DRA and create it again.
