Redis cluster logs

the Logs service is used for logging. Read more about how the service works and its pricing in the General Information about the Logs Service guide. You can check the availability of the Logs service in different regions in the availability matrix for Logs.

Logged events in a Redis Managed Database cluster are defined by the parameter loglevel = notice.

To collect cluster logs in the Logs service, you need to enable logging. Get logs in the Control Panel using API requests or via AWS CLI. If you no longer need to collect logs, you can disable logging.

Logs are stored for 30 days.
