RDS for PostgreSQL DB clusters should be configured to copy tags to DB snapshots

Description

Flags PostgreSQL-engine RDS DB clusters whose CopyTagsToSnapshot is disabled. Without this setting, snapshots taken from the cluster lose ownership/cost-allocation tags, which then need to be re-applied manually.

Remediation

Modify each PostgreSQL DB cluster and enable Copy tags to snapshots.

Steps

  1. Open the Amazon RDS console and select the DB cluster.
  2. Choose Modify.
  3. Under Maintenance, enable Copy tags to snapshots.
  4. Save the changes (apply immediately or during the next maintenance window).
