restoreFromClusterSnapshot

Creates a new cluster from a snapshot. By default, Amazon Redshift creates the resulting cluster with the same configuration as the original cluster from which the snapshot was created, except that the new cluster is created with the default cluster security and parameter groups. After Amazon Redshift creates the cluster, you can use the ModifyCluster API to associate a different security group and different parameter group with the restored cluster. If you are using a DS node type, you can also choose to change to another DS node type of the same size during restore.

If you restore a cluster into a VPC, you must provide a cluster subnet group where you want the cluster restored.

VPC Block Public Access (BPA) enables you to block resources in VPCs and subnets that you own in a Region from reaching or being reached from the internet through internet gateways and egress-only internet gateways. If a subnet group for a provisioned cluster is in an account with VPC BPA turned on, the following capabilities are blocked:

  • Creating a public cluster

  • Restoring a public cluster

  • Modifying a private cluster to be public

  • Adding a subnet with VPC BPA turned on to the subnet group when there's at least one public cluster within the group

For more information about VPC BPA, see Block public access to VPCs and subnets in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
