Getting started with Amazon RDS for MySQL includes completing the Databases guided setup, configuring entities, and then performing a test backup and a restore.
Complete the Databases Guided Setup
To add the first database in your Command Center environment, use the Databases guided setup. In the Command Center, go to Guided setup > Databases.
To complete the guided setup, you need the following information:
-
The server name
-
The host name
-
The credentials that you use to access the server
-
The packages that you want to install, such as Oracle
Note
If you are configuring a database that uses a pseudoclient, you must manually install the packages on the physical servers before you use the guided setup. For more information, see Adding a New Server.
Configure Entities
-
Add a database group for content that have different backup requirements.
