Hello I am trying to rerun pulumi up but i get below error

aws:eks:Addon (coredns):

    error: 1 error occurred:

    	* error creating EKS Add-On : ResourceInUseException: Addon already exists.

    {

      RespMetadata: {

        StatusCode: 409,

        RequestID: "4c48c30e-3c0d-43d3-aa0b-2cca66f8335d"

      },

      Message_: "Addon already exists."

    }

earlier i created resource from pulumi itself and pulumi state refelcts that resource already exists I was expecting if the resource exists its should not complain that resource already exists

Why is it being created? Do you have a new Pulumi name which is different from the Pulumi name of he resource in state?

yes earlier it was like this

const eksAddonCoredns = new aws.eks.Addon(
    "eksAddon",
    {
      addonName: "coredns",
      clusterName: prefix,
      resolveConflicts: "OVERWRITE",
      addonVersion: eksAddonCorednsVersion,
    },

    {
      dependsOn: [k8sCluster],
    },
  );

now it is updated like this

const eksAddonCoredns = new aws.eks.Addon(
    "Coredns",
    {
      addonName: "coredns",
      clusterName: prefix,
      resolveConflicts: "OVERWRITE",
      addonVersion: eksAddonCorednsVersion,
    },

    {
      dependsOn: [k8sCluster],
    },
  );

So that means that there two different resources. "eksAddon" is being deleted, and "Codedns" is being created.

oh so i should first remove the resource and then recreate reosurce with new name is that right

You could, but Pulumi has a better way.

oh what us the better way ?

It won't delete it.

oh is there link on how to add alias ?

Looking for it now.
