AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2025-10-01 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/rds/restore-db-cluster-to-point-in-time.md

Summary

Reorganized CLI parameters, added network-type documentation, and restructured scaling configuration details. Added new parameters like source-db-cluster-resource-id and expanded DB cluster response fields.

Security assessment

Added documentation for --network-type parameter explaining VPC security implications and IP protocol restrictions. Enhanced CertificateDetails section describing SSL/TLS encryption requirements and certificate management. These changes improve documentation of security-related configurations but don't address specific vulnerabilities.

-> The engine mode of the new cluster. Specify `provisioned` or `serverless` , depending on the type of the cluster you are creating. You can create an Aurora Serverless v1 clone from a provisioned cluster, or a provisioned clone from an Aurora Serverless v1 cluster. To create a clone that is an Aurora Serverless v1 cluster, the original cluster must be an Aurora Serverless v1 cluster or an encrypted provisioned cluster. To create a full copy that is an Aurora Serverless v1 cluster, specify the engine mode `serverless` .
