Question

Hi guys If a pulumi resource hasn t been created properly and I want to force the redeploy How can I do that For example I couldn t create a GKE cluster because of `Cluster gke cluster 1 has terminal state ERROR with message Retry budget exhausted 10 attempts Google Compute Engine A route in one of the active peer networks hides the address space of the new subnetwork ` Now I want to recreate it but I get `Plan apply failed googleapi Error 409 Already exists projects zones europe west3 c clusters gke cluster 1 alreadyExists` I removed this resource from pulumi state directly with `pulumi state rm urn` but the behaviour is the same

There is a a relatively new flag `pulumi up replace lt urn gt ` which can be used to force a specific resource to replace There is also a `pulumi up target replace lt urn gt ` to do just that replacement without processing any other update changes

< white balloon 205> sorry but I have an additional question If I deleted an urn from a pulumi state the solutions above do not work What would be the workaround there So GCP reports the resource exists but it is not in a pulumi state I think in this case it is a GCP limitation and it has nothing to do with pulumi right
