youhuiquan_promotion_option_id_for_blank
SrcDBInstanceIdstringNo

If you want to create an instance based on the backup set of an existing instance, set this parameter to the ID of the source instance.

Note After you specify the SrcDBInstanceId parameter, use the BackupId, ClusterBackupId (recommended for cloud-native cluster instances), or RestoreTime parameter to specify the backup set or the specific point in time that you want to use to create an instance. The SrcDBInstanceId parameter must be used in combination with one of the preceding three parameters.
r-bp1zxszhcgatnx****
BackupIdstringNo

If your instance is a cloud-native cluster instance, we recommend that you use DescribeClusterBackupList to query the backup set ID of the cluster instance, such as cb-xx. Then, set the ClusterBackupId request parameter to the backup set ID to clone the cluster instance. This eliminates the need to specify the backup set ID of each shard.

You can set the BackupId parameter to the backup set ID of the source instance. The system uses the data stored in the backup set to create an instance. You can call the DescribeBackups operation to query backup set IDs. If the source instance is a cluster instance, set the BackupId parameter to the backup set IDs of all shards of the source instance, separated by commas (,). Example: "10**,11**,15**".

11111111
ClusterBackupIdstringNo

This parameter is supported for specific new cluster instances. You can query the backup set ID by calling the DescribeClusterBackupList operation.

  • If this parameter is supported, you can specify the backup set ID. In this case, you do not need to specify the BackupId parameter.
  • If this parameter is not supported, set the BackupId parameter to the IDs of backup sets in all shards of the source instance, separated by commas (,). Example: "2158****20,2158****22".

The shard type of the instance. Valid values:

  • MASTER_SLAVE (default): runs in a master-replica architecture that provides high availability.
  • STAND_ALONE: runs in a standalone architecture. If the only node fails, the system creates a new instance and switches the workloads to the new instance. This may cause data loss. You can set the ShardType parameter to this value only if the instance uses the single-zone deployment mode. If you set the ShardType parameter to this value, you cannot create cluster or read/write splitting instances.
MASTER_SLAVE
ShardCountintegerNo

The number of data nodes in the instance. Valid values:

  • 1 (default): You can create a standard instance that contains only a single data node.
