Changing a Storage Type

Scenarios

If the storage type of your DB instance does not match your workloads, you can change it as needed.

Constraints

  • If the storage type of a read replica is different from that of its associated DB instance, the data synchronization may be affected. Ensure that the storage type of the read replica is the same as or faster than that of the primary DB instance.
  • During the storage type change, operations such as changing the instance class and scaling up storage space cannot be performed on the instance.
  • Changing the storage type may affect storage performance, so the storage type should be changed during off-peak hours.
  • Changing the storage type may take several minutes, hours, or even days. The time required depends on the throughput, storage space, and original storage type. This operation cannot be paused.
  • In rare cases, the change may fail due to resource problems. If this happens, you are advised to perform the change again.
