This is the details output when I do not try to import the existing ResourceGroup:

i'm not super familiar with Azure, but it looks like just the tags are diff?

there are no tags on any of the resources in azure and the pulumi app doesn't want to put any on either.

Also, might you know what the little :lock: character in the details means? I'm not sure if that is because I have `protected` on the resource of if pulumi has detected the resource is locked in Azure.

That's because you've flagged the resource as protected in Pulumi

```const resourceGroup = new azure.core.ResourceGroup("rg-kubernetes",{
        name: "rg-kubernetes",
    },{
        //import: "/subscriptions/ad73ec2e-0337-4de5-983c-3944fcb68be8/resourceGroups/rg-kubernetes",
        protect: true, ignoreChanges: ["tags", "id"]
    }
);```
is producing this `replacement` action...

<@UE1LN7A22> Do you have any ideas? Is this `replacement` probably safe and not going to delete my control planes in the rg?

Was the resource group previously created with Pulumi? AFAICT, it looks like it wasn’t, so Pulumi is planning to replace the existing one with one of the same name that it manages.

<@UE1LN7A22> This behaviour happens if I try to do include or exclude the `import` statement.

You are right in that it was originally imported. But once it was imported, we removed the `'import` directive

Hmm, I’m not really sure what’s going on.

Any ideas <@U017TPA7FEW> ?

so the RG is currently imported in pulumi state along with the cluster? (sorry catching up here)

I guess I'm wondering why an `import` directive wants to replace the RG? Replacing an RG is a delete/recreate action afaik and deleting an RG will cause everything inside of it to get deleted too. Our control planes are in that RG, so if they get deleted, then all the clusters and everything in them gets deleted, I think.
