AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-05-16 · Documentation medium

File: cli/latest/reference/es/update-elasticsearch-domain-config.md

Summary

Added documentation for new '--automated-snapshot-pause-options' parameter allowing temporary suspension of automated snapshots with warnings about reduced data protection.

Security assessment

This change documents a new feature to pause automated snapshots, which directly impacts data protection capabilities. The documentation includes explicit warnings about reduced data protection and restore limitations during suspension periods. While this relates to security (data protection), there's no evidence it addresses a specific vulnerability.
