Database Autonomy Service:CreateCacheAnalysisJob

Last Updated:Apr 14, 2026

Creates a cache analysis task.

Operation description

Before you call this operation, take note of the following items:

  • If you use an Alibaba Cloud SDK or Database Autonomy Service (DAS) SDK to call this operation, we recommend that you use the latest version of the SDK.

  • If you use an SDK to call the API operations of DAS, you must set the region ID to cn-shanghai.

  • Analyzes the data structures of ApsaraDB for Redis and the following self-developed Tair data structures: TairString, TairHash, TairGIS, TairBloom, TairDoc, TairCpc, and TairZset. Other self-developed Tair data structures are not supported.

  • If the specifications of the database instance that you want to analyze are changed, the backup file generated before the specification change cannot be analyzed.

  • Tair ESSD/SSD-based instances are not supported.

Try it now

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

Required

Description

Example

InstanceId

string

Yes

The ID of the ApsaraDB for Redis instance.

r-bp18ff4a195d****

NodeId

string

No

The ID of the data node on the instance. You can specify this parameter to query the monitoring information about the specified node.

Note

If you specify the BackupSetId parameter, the system ignores the NodeId parameter. You can call the DescribeLogicInstanceTopology operation to query the node ID.

r-x****-db-0

BackupSetId

string

No

The ID of the backup file. You can call the DescribeBackups operation to query the ID.

  • If you need to specify multiple backup file IDs, separate them with commas (,). For example, you can set this parameter to 12345,67890.

  • If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically backs up the task and performs cache analysis on the backup file.

12345

Separators

string

No

The delimiters used to identify the prefixes of keys. You do not need to specify this parameter if one or more of the following default delimiters are used: : ; , _ - + @ = | #

&

Response elements

Element

Type

Description

Example

object

The response parameters.

Message

string

The returned message.

Note

If the request was successful, Successful is returned. If the request failed, an error message such as an error code is returned.

Successful

RequestId

string

The request ID.

B6D17591-B48B-4D31-9CD6-9B9796B2****

Data

object

The detailed information.

TaskState

string

The state of the cache analysis task. Valid values:

  • BACKUP: The data is being backed up.

  • ANALYZING: The data is being analyzed.

  • FINISHED: The data is analyzed.

  • FAILED: An error occurred.

BACKUP

JobId

string

The ID of the cache analysis task.

Note

This parameter can be used to query a specific cache analysis task. When you call the CreateCacheAnalysisJob operation, it takes some time to create a cache analysis task. As a result, the analysis results cannot be immediately returned. You can call the DescribeCacheAnalysisJob operation to query the analysis results of the specified cache analysis task.
