Cause: The issue with permission to enable the backup or restore policy for the database

Solution: To Overcome this error during running backup issue. Issue with the permission of S3 and backup permission. We need to create a role and assign to the database to overcome this error for backup:

1. Go to the IAM console in AWS –> Create a new Role with following permissions:

Steps to create a new role as follows: click on IAM console — > Create a new role:

Go to Next, after type RDS in use cases for other AWS Services: Select RDS-ADD Role to Database.

Type S3 in Search and select the policy as: AmazonS3FullAccess

Again, type backup and select the policy as: AWSBackupServiceRolePolicyForBackup and AWSBackupServiceRolePolicyForRestores

Create the Role by specifying the name:

Finally, Role is created for used in the database instance running in RDS Service of AWS.

Add the Role into the RDS instance for running the backup or avoid the permission issue that occurred

Go to the RDS Service –> Select the option groups in RDS main console window at left panel.

Create the new group by clicking CREATE GROUP button:

Fill the detail for create group:

Check the version of database from SQL management studio with select @@VERSION command. I am using express edition.

Click on the new created group and choose the add option

Select the following option and IAM role which is created above:

Finally, Now adds this option group to the database.
Go to the Database tab — Select the database name on which you want to modify the option group for running backup.

select database-1 for modify:

Go to option group and select the new group:

Press Continue at last of the screen:

After sometime the database Status becomes available, then we tried to rerun the backup with command. Hopefully it will fix the issue.
