It means that in order to update the Pulumi resource, the provider resource had to be deleted and re-created. Not all resources allow all properties to be updated.
@little-cartoon-10569 does this relate at all to the deleteBeforeReplace option?

That's relevant. With that option, any time there's a delete-replaced action, the delete happens before the create. When possible, Pulumi prefers to create before the delete. For things like security groups, this allows 100% "uptime". When you delete things like before creating their replacements, then you briefly lose access (or whatever functionality they provide).
No matter how you like to participate in developer communities, Pulumi wants to meet you there. If you want to meet other Pulumi users to share use-cases and best practices, contribute code or documentation, see us at an event, or just tell a story about something cool you did with Pulumi, you are part of our community.
