Can create global cluster from snapshot

[nallamr]

Hello Team,

We are trying to create global postgres DB from snapshot. It is working fine for single region cluster but it is failing when creating secondary cluster. Clusters created as regional clusters and not added to global cluster

@nallamr did you find a solution ? I am facing the same issue, it is not possible to restore a global cluster from a snapshot

Issue is related to the fact that if you specify the snapshot identifier of the cluster to be restored from, then the aws_rds_global_cluster resource engine must be omitted and you should use source_db_cluster_identifier instead, which links the restored cluster to the global database.
