Unable to reboot RDS Multi-AZ MySQL Cluster

Question

I have been unable to reboot or failover a cluster using the new RDS Multi-AZ MySQL Cluster service. It always shows the same error in the AWS console:

![Cluster Menu](/media/postImages/original/IMgJ_wdcUjTGy4NzjmQbR1lA)

![Cluster Reboot Error](/media/postImages/original/IMAyqkZBLlT4GzRZByN8mnYg)

Rebooting individual writer/reader nodes will reboot, but never the cluster. I was wondering if this was happening to anyone else?

Answer

**I am going to sum this up to a UI/Javascript bug in the AWS console.**

How to do it via CLI:

```
aws rds reboot-db-cluster --db-cluster-identifier {your-cluster-id}
```
