One of my pulumi-managed Kubernetes Deployments was mysteriously deleted from Kubernetes, presumably by pulumi, and now pulumi doesn't think it needs to recreate it.

presumably by pulumi, and now pulumi doesn't think it needs to recreate it.

That would be a little surprising. Can you tell from history of deployments whether there was any deletion scheduled by Pulumi?

pulumi refresh

shows "delete" under the "Plan" column for this resource. I'm not sure what that means.

That sounds ~expected - the refresh will remove this resource from your state file. ( I thought we used a word like "removed" instead of "deleted" here though). Once it's removed so that the Pulumi view is reconciled with your cluster, a

pulumi up

should try to recreate it for you.

Unfortunately I've been spamming

pulumi up

repeatedly trying to get a different resource to work, and I wasn't paying attention to this one until I noticed it was missing.
