Question

HELP It seems that changing aws rds SubnetGroup description is causing an aws rds ClusterInstace replacement This is insane We tried different pulumi aws versions 1 7 0 1 14 0 happens on all of them Note that in pulumi aws 1 8 0 there is a change to subnetgroup description so we are currently stuck on 1 7 0 due to this breaking change

Hi < best waiter 16927> Unfortunately as far as I can tell changing a description of the subnet group isn t actually supported by the aws cli or the sdk And this why Pulumi has this limitation Can you edit the description in the AWS console If so then you can use Pulumi refresh to get that change

Also < best waiter 16927> you can pass ignoreChanges to the CustomResourceOptions to say ignore changes to description Eg writing on my phone Const myGroup = new aws rds SubnetGroup my group ignoreChanges description

And that will stop the ForceNew

< broad dog 22463> Thanks for your quick reply Indeed the ignoreChanges worked as expected muscle Thank you I would recommend adding a warning in pulumi aws CHANGELOG on version 1 8 0 since there is a forced change to the default description which can cause this issue
