Hi@akhtar,

You can create a manual snapshot of the specified cluster. The cluster must be in the available state. The below example creates a new cluster snapshot. By default, the output is in JSON format.

$ aws redshift create-cluster-snapshot --cluster-identifier mycluster --snapshot-identifier my-snapshot-id
