Determine the action to take when an AWS RDS db instance is not approved based on `AWS &gt; RDS &gt; DB Instance &gt; Approved &gt; *` policies.&#92;n&#92;nThe Approved control checks the status of the defined Approved sub-policies for the resource. If the resource is not approved according to any of these policies, this control raises an alarm and takes the defined enforcement action.&#92;n&#92;nSee [Approved](https://turbot.com/guardrails/docs/concepts/guardrails/approved) for more information.&#92;n
