Introduction:
rds-apply-alarms was created to easily apply alarms to one or more Amazon RDS instances. The tool applies alarms for CPU Utilization, Feeable Memory, Swap Usage and Free Storage Space. rds-apply-alarms will run "out of the box", however the intent is rather to provide a template (and the logic) for managing multiple RDS instance's alarms.
Directions For Use:
Example of Use:
rds-apply-alarms -d rds-instance-name -t name-of-sns-topic
the above example would apply alarms to "rds-instance-name" and, if any of these Alarms enter state "Alarm" would send a message to "name-of-topic."
Required Parameters:
rds-apply-alarms requires the following two arguments:
-d <rds-instance-name> - the name of the Database Instance for which you wish to apply alarms.
-t <name-of-topic> - the name of the sns-topic where Alarms should be sent.
Optional Parameters:
-a - pass the -a parameter to apply alarms to ALL RDS instances in a given region.
-r <region> - region that contains the RDS instances(s) where alarms should be applied
-e <evaluation period> - set to the number of evaluation periods before an SNS topic is notified.
-p <previewmode> - set to "true" to preview what alarms would be applied.
