Enable Automated Snapshots​

Update the configuration of the affected Redshift cluster to enable automated snapshots by setting a positive automated snapshot retention period.

The automated snapshot retention period determines how many days Amazon Redshift retains automated backups. Valid values range from 1 to 35 days. Setting this value to 0 disables automated snapshots.

From Command Line​

Run the following AWS CLI command to enable automated snapshots for the selected Amazon Redshift cluster:

aws redshift modify-cluster \
    --region {{region}} \
    --cluster-identifier {{cluster-id}} \
    --automated-snapshot-retention-period 7

Adjust the --automated-snapshot-retention-period value as needed to align with your organization’s backup retention requirements.
