Created a zero-etl integration successfully between RDS aurora & RMS Redshift - but cannot create a database?

Question

I have followed this guide: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/zero-etl-using.setting-up.html to establish the zero-etl integration between my RDS Aurora instance and RMS Redshift instance.

I have ensured that:

- all of the necessary parameter groups are set for both instances as described in the guide.
- the CMK encryption policy includes:         
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": {
                "Service": "redshift.amazonaws.com"
            },
            "Action": "kms:CreateGrant",
            "Resource": "*"
       
The zero-etl integration is currently showing as "Active" but with no database. I have tried to use the console to create a database, which automatically populates the integration ID and data warehouse name, and receive:

ERROR: Unknown arn  xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxx and remote db (null) pair.

In the query editor v2 i have also tried:

SELECT integration_id from SVV_INTEGRATION; 
CREATE DATABASE zero_etl_test FROM INTEGRATION ';

as well as

CREATE DATABASE zero_etl_test FROM INTEGRATION

Answer

I can understand that you are following the steps mentioned in the below documentation to create the database in the Redshift:

[+] Creating destination databases in Amazon Redshift - Creating a destination database in Amazon Redshift - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/zero-etl-using.creating-db.html#zero-etl-using.create-db

Please check the most recent results from "select * from svv_integration;"

Also, I will suggest to open a support ticket with AWS Redshift Support Team for further troubleshooting of this issue.
