You can use the `alias` field on ResourceOptions for a component. Essentially, this will tell Pulumi you've refactored the existing resource with a different name, type, parent, etc.

<@U025WUAUECC> would you be able to give me a tip how to correclty use an alias here?
I tried to change the resource name and remove suffix `Ec2`, but so far none of the aliases I tried worked :confused:
