Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Database - Specialty
Question #: 227
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Database - Specialty Questions]

A database specialist wants to ensure that an Amazon Aurora DB cluster is always automatically upgraded to the most recent minor version available. Noticing that there is a new minor version available, the database specialist has issues an AWS CLI command to enable automatic minor version updates. The command runs successfully, but checking the Aurora DB cluster indicates that no update to the Aurora version has been made.
What might account for this? (Choose two.)

  • A. The new minor version has not yet been designated as preferred and requires a manual upgrade.
  • B. Configuring automatic upgrades using the AWS CLI is not supported. This must be enabled expressly using the AWS Management Console.
  • C. Applying minor version upgrades requires sufficient free space.
  • D. The AWS CLI command did not include an apply-immediately parameter.
  • E. Aurora has detected a breaking change in the new minor version and has automatically rejected the upgrade.

When Amazon RDS designates a minor engine version as the preferred minor engine version, each database that meets both of the following conditions is upgraded to the minor engine version automatically. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_UpgradeDBInstance.Upgrad ing.html Call the modify-db-instance Amazon CLI command. Specify the name of your DB instance for the --db-instance-identifier option and true for the --auto-minor-version-upgrade option. Optionally, specify the --apply-immediately option to immediately enable this setting for your DB instance. Run a separate modify-db-instance command for each DB instance in the cluster. https://docs.amazonaws.cn/en_us/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/AuroraMySQL.Updates.Patching.html#AuroraMySQL.Updates.AMVU

C cannot be right as STORAGE_FULL is related to Major version upgrade as it consumes its upgrade binaries consumes additional space. but its not the case with Minor I guess.

Also refer this, A is the right option as auto minor upgrade happens only when absolutely necessary and you can view that using the CLI if its ready or not. in that you only can manually upgrade.. https://repost.aws/questions/QUT0JuX6IhSAyXaSdQK5SW3A/rds-postgre-sql-minor-version-upgrade-wasnt-performed
