Request Syntax

response = client.create_cluster(
    BackupRetentionPolicy={
        'Type': 'DAYS',
        'Value': 'string'
    },
    HsmType='string',
    SourceBackupId='string',
    SubnetIds=[
        'string',
    ],
    TagList=[
        {
            'Key': 'string',
            'Value': 'string'
        },
    ]
)
Parameters:

  • BackupRetentionPolicy (dict) –

    A policy that defines how the service retains backups.

    • Type (string) –

      The type of backup retention policy. For the DAYS type, the value is the number of days to retain backups.

    • Value (string) –

      Use a value between 7 - 379.

  • HsmType (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The type of HSM to use in the cluster. Currently the only allowed value is hsm1.medium.

  • SourceBackupId (string) – The identifier (ID) of the cluster backup to restore. Use this value to restore the cluster from a backup instead of creating a new cluster. To find the backup ID, use DescribeBackups.

  • SubnetIds (list) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The identifiers (IDs) of the subnets where you are creating the cluster. You must specify at least one subnet. If you specify multiple subnets, they must meet the following criteria:

    • All subnets must be in the same virtual private cloud (VPC).

    • You can specify only one subnet per Availability Zone.

    • (string) –

  • TagList (list) –

    Tags to apply to the CloudHSM cluster during creation.

    • (dict) –

      Contains a tag. A tag is a key-value pair.

      • Key (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The key of the tag.

      • Value (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The value of the tag.

Return type:

dict
