Comments - how to clear AWS key caching on Mariadb.

Thank you for the advice, I tried the alter table and it works. So this approach is more of a manual process, I was also looking at the innodb_encryption_rotate_key_age but don't know how to force test this feature, do you happen to know?

You mentioned the "aws-kms-key.<id>.<version>" ... I was testing deletion of these keys and I was not able to bring up MariaDB service. Do you how to fix this? beside having a backup "aws-kms-key.<id>.<version>" key?

If you use key id = 2, and you change it to key id = 3, in alter table then you would not need aws-kms-key.2.<whatever>

But you can't remove *all* keys, and this is not what I meant. There must be some aws-kms-key.<id>.<version>, for the key ids and versions that are still in use. Because these files contain the encrypted keys, which AWS KMS would decrypt at startup.
