Yes. Once the 
up
errors, you can export the stack. Down near the bottom will be the deleted resources, which will have the "delete" attribute with value "true". Delete all those resources and import. Pulumi will forget about them.
For my own interest, what resource creates tables in RDS?
q
I think you can create a single table with the RDSInstance class. But otherwise I’m using a provider.
I exported the stack but I started deleting via https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/pulumi_state_delete/ . It wasn’t that clear what to remove from the exported file.
l
Not sure that you can work with the internals of RDS instances using the rds package.. how would it know if it's SQL server, postgres, etc.?
state delete
will remove resources that aren't currently "being deleted".. once they're in that state, Pulumi thinks they're already deleted and 
state delete
doesn't work on them. I was trying that just an hour ago 🙂
state delete
is good for making Pulumi forget about resources.. it's for "unmanaging" them.
It won't delete the resources though. It just removes them from the state.
q
I think that’s what I needed, to unmanage them. They were already non-existant
