04/01/2021, 5:08 PMFor example, this is the error I'm seeing when trying to deploy, even with
-r Copy code
01-Apr-2021 10:05:42 Retry #0; creation failed: <http://clusterroles.rbac.authorization.k8s.io|clusterroles.rbac.authorization.k8s.io> "flannel" already exists
01-Apr-2021 10:05:42 error: resource flannel was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server : <http://clusterroles.rbac.authorization.k8s.io|clusterroles.rbac.authorization.k8s.io> "flannel" already existsl

04/02/2021, 1:01 PMI'm guessing the thinking is that when destroying unmanaged resources you would want to do this carefully and know exactly what Pulumi will destroy. However I can see your point if this is just a dev environment. Looking through the code I don't see any simple way to do this. Perhaps you could instead automate the step of removing these resources with whatever you used to create them?
