dbParameterGroupFamily

The DB parameter group family name. A DB parameter group can be associated with one and only one DB parameter group family, and can be applied only to a DB instance running a database engine and engine version compatible with that DB parameter group family.

To list all of the available parameter group families for a DB engine, use the following command:

aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --query "DBEngineVersions[].DBParameterGroupFamily" --engine <engine>

For example, to list all of the available parameter group families for the MySQL DB engine, use the following command:

aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --query "DBEngineVersions[].DBParameterGroupFamily" --engine mysql

The output contains duplicates.

The following are the valid DB engine values:

• aurora-mysql

• aurora-postgresql

• db2-ae

• db2-se

• mysql

• oracle-ee

• oracle-ee-cdb

• oracle-se2
