aws.cloudhsmv2.describe_backups

Example SQL Queries

SELECT * FROM
aws.cloudhsmv2.describe_backups;

Description

Gets information about backups of CloudHSM clusters. Lists either the backups you own or the backups shared with you when the Shared parameter is true.

This is a paginated operation, which means that each response might contain only a subset of all the backups. When the response contains only a subset of backups, it includes a NextToken value. Use this value in a subsequent DescribeBackups request to get more backups. When you receive a response with no NextToken (or an empty or null value), that means there are no more backups to get.

Cross-account use: Yes. Customers can describe backups in other Amazon Web Services accounts that are shared with them.

Table Definition

Column NameColumn Data Type
filters Input Column

One or more filters to limit the items returned in the response.

Use the backupIds filter to return only the specified backups. Specify backups by their backup identifier (ID).

Use the sourceBackupIds filter to return only the backups created from a source backup. The sourceBackupID of a source backup is returned by the CopyBackupToRegion operation.

Use the clusterIds filter to return only the backups for the specified clusters. Specify clusters by their cluster identifier (ID).

Use the states filter to return only backups that match the specified state.

Use the neverExpires filter to return backups filtered by the value in the neverExpires parameter. True returns all backups exempt from the backup retention policy. False returns all backups with a backup retention policy defined at the cluster.

MAP(VARCHAR, VARCHAR[])
shared Input Column

Describe backups that are shared with you.

By default when using this option, the command returns backups that have been shared using a standard Resource Access Manager resource share. In order for a backup that was shared using the PutResourcePolicy command to be returned, the share must be promoted to a standard resource share using the RAM PromoteResourceShareCreatedFromPolicy API operation. For more information about sharing backups, see Working with shared backups in the CloudHSM User Guide.

BOOLEAN
sort_ascending Input Column

Designates whether or not to sort the return backups by ascending chronological order of generation.

BOOLEAN
_aws_profile Input Column

The AWS profile defines the AWS identity used. It can be defined via credentials or by assuming a IAM role.
