state=running and state=started are synonyms, as are state=rebooted and state=restarted. Note - rebooting the instance is not idempotent.
storage_encrypted
boolean

  • no
  • yes
Whether the DB instance is encrypted.
storage_type
string
    Choices:
  • standard
  • gp2

wait
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
Whether to wait for the cluster to be available, stopped, or deleted. At a later time a wait_timeout option may be added. Following each API call to create/modify/delete the instance a waiter is used with a 60 second delay 30 times until the instance reaches the expected state (available/stopped/deleted). The total task time may also be influenced by AWSRetry which helps stabilize if the instance is in an invalid state to operate on to begin with (such as if you try to stop it when it is in the process of rebooting). If setting this to False task retries and delays may make your playbook execution better handle timeouts for major modifications.

Notes ----- .. note:: - If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence ``AWS_URL`` or ``EC2_URL``, ``AWS_PROFILE`` or ``AWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE``, ``AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`` or ``AWS_ACCESS_KEY`` or ``EC2_ACCESS_KEY``, ``AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`` or ``AWS_SECRET_KEY`` or ``EC2_SECRET_KEY``, ``AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN`` or ``EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN``, ``AWS_REGION`` or ``EC2_REGION``, ``AWS_CA_BUNDLE`` - Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided.
