**To modify an Amazon DocumentDB cluster**

The following ``modify-db-cluster`` example modifies the Amazon DocumentDB cluster ``sample-cluster`` by making the retention period for automatic backups 7 days, and changing the preferred windows for both backups and maintenance. All changes are applied at the next maintenance window. ::

    aws docdb modify-db-cluster \
        --db-cluster-identifier sample-cluster \
        --no-apply-immediately \
        --backup-retention-period 7 \
        --preferred-backup-window 18:00-18:30 \
        --preferred-maintenance-window sun:20:00-sun:20:30

Output::
