I realized settings the parent and deletedBy can be really useful when you want to destroy or update a resource, so I decided to set them, however when I do this for every resource, the pulumi try to replace it by creating new resource and deleting old one, but I just changed the parent and deletedBy, and as I did not changed any resource parameter, I expect do not replace that.

10/02/2023, 7:44 AMThis will cause serious problem if we are in the production environment

10/02/2023, 8:25 AMWhen changing the parent, you'll also need to set up an alias so pulumi knows where to move state to

10/02/2023, 8:35 AMThanks @dry-keyboard-94795 useful information
also if I set parent for a resource, does pulumi skip delete of child resource when deleted parent? or I have to explicitly set deletedWith?
late-journalist-61387
10/02/2023, 8:40 AMthere is no information about this in the parent option docs

late-journalist-61387
10/02/2023, 9:16 AMI can confirm that this is not working
I have a secret code that the parent resource option is set to a postgress Role, however it has not been deleted in real. ( as you can see these secret already exist https://gist.github.com/atazangene/e332f0244dd87fd79f3da138f76a1a06

10/02/2023, 9:40 AMI am surprised too 😄
late-journalist-61387
10/02/2023, 9:41 AMbut I think it would be better to show two version of deleted status in console like (deleted / deleted by parent )
late-journalist-61387
10/02/2023, 9:41 AMsomething like that
d
dry-keyboard-94795
10/02/2023, 9:44 AMfeature was implemented here, worth commenting on it with your unexpected behaviour: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/12158
Though Frassle has already mentioned this limitation
dry-keyboard-94795
10/02/2023, 9:46 AMimo, it's a breaking change, and one that won't show up until someone does deletes; not all too common except with ephemeral stacks (like yours) or if you're doing cleanup.
