engineVersion

The version number of the database engine to which you want to upgrade. Changing this parameter results in an outage. The change is applied during the next maintenance window unless ApplyImmediately is enabled.

If the cluster that you're modifying has one or more read replicas, all replicas must be running an engine version that's the same or later than the version you specify.
