AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-04-10 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/drs/start-failback-launch.md

Summary

Updated AWS CLI version reference from 2.34.25 to 2.34.28 and restructured the job response schema by reordering fields, modifying field patterns (removing regex anchors), and reorganizing participating servers/resources structure with added fields like status and launchActionsStatus.

Security assessment

The changes are primarily structural reorganization of API response documentation and pattern format updates (removing ^ and $ anchors). No evidence of security vulnerability fixes, incident response, or security weaknesses being addressed. The changes include routine documentation updates and schema restructuring without security context.
