**To modify a DB subnet group**

The following ``modify-db-subnet-group`` example adds a subnet with the ID ``subnet-08e41f9e230222222`` to the DB subnet group named ``mysubnetgroup``. To keep the existing subnets in the subnet group, include their IDs as values in the ``--subnet-ids`` option. Make sure to have subnets with at least two different Availability Zones in the DB subnet group. ::

    aws rds modify-db-subnet-group \
        --db-subnet-group-name mysubnetgroup \
        --subnet-ids '["subnet-0a1dc4e1a6f123456","subnet-070dd7ecb3aaaaaaa","subnet-00f5b198bc0abcdef","subnet-08e41f9e230222222"]'

Output::
