I have created AWS Neptune DB. However, now I want to encrypt it. As per AWS documentation, I should take snapshot and while restoring, encrypt new DB instance.

However, enabling Encryption check-box is disabled in my account.

Am I missing anything? Does it has anything to do with IAM roles/permissions?

I am trying all these steps from AWS Management Console.

There are few instance type that does not support encryption, please check here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/Overview.Encryption.html#Overview.Encryption.Availability if you are using one of them.

  • Thanks ! My Neptune instance class does not belong to any of the instance classes mentioned in the link. DB Instance class of my existing Neptune: db.r5.large To explain my scenario in detailed: I have already running Neptune DB without encryption. However, I want to enable it now on this already running instance. As mentioned in _Limitations of Neptune Encryption section_ of [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/neptune/latest/userguide/encrypt.html], I have taken snapshot and trying to restore it as encrypted DB instance. While restoring, option to enable encryption is disabled. – Ajinkya Gosavi Jul 04 '21 at 12:57
