Testing the data migration - Amazon ElastiCache

Testing the data migration

After all prerequisites are complete, you can validate the migration setup for your node-based ElastiCache cluster using the AWS Management Console, ElastiCache API, or AWS CLI. The following example shows using the CLI.

Test migration by calling the test-migration command with the following parameters:

  • --replication-group-id – The ID of the replication group to which data is to be migrated.

  • --customer-node-endpoint-list – List of endpoints from which data should be migrated. List should have only one element.

The following is an example using the CLI.

aws elasticache test-migration --replication-group-id test-cluster --customer-node-endpoint-list "Address='10.0.0.241',Port=6379"

ElastiCache will validate migration setup without any actual data migration.
