Question

I ve refactored a bunch of code into a new component resource It s basically creating a nicer abstraction over a Kubernetes helm chart The problem now is that when I `pulumi up` I get the following types of errors ``` kubernetes datadog chart error resource datadog chart was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server datadog chart already exists kubernetes datadog chart cluster agent error resource datadog chart cluster agent was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server datadog chart cluster agent already exists``` I guess this is expected since Pulumi cannot associate the old resource with the refactored resource What is the best way to go about doing with without me manually deleting these resources from Kubernetes

Hi < rapid soccer 18092> you should be able to use an Alias to do this one of our community members wrote a great blog post on how they achieved this style of refactoring

So this did work for the resources I have control over But not for the dependencies created by the chart What can I do about those which I cannot alias ``` kubernetes core v1 Service default datadog chart kube state metrics error resource default datadog chart kube state metrics was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server services datadog chart kube state metrics already exists kubernetes core v1 Service default datadog chart cluster agent error resource default datadog chart cluster agent was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server services datadog chart cluster agent already exists```

Changing the name of the chart results in changing the name of the dependency resources so I did that Wasn t exactly what I wanted but alrighty
