Scale DB Instance Storage

with Amazon RDS · IT Infrastructure Management

Increase a DB instance allocated storage and wait for it to stabilize.

  1. Describe the DB instance to confirm it is available and read its current allocated storage before scaling.
  2. Submit the modify request raising the allocated storage with the change applied immediately.
  3. Describe the DB instance and inspect its status. While the instance is still modifying or optimizing storage the workflow loops back to poll again; once it is available the flow ends.
What you'll need to have ready
  • dbInstanceIdentifier: The identifier of the DB instance to scale storage for.
  • allocatedStorage: The new allocated storage in gibibytes (GiB); must exceed the current size.
