Is there someway to change the strategy from replace aka remove before adding new to rollout as in add new then delete old

The default is to add new then delete old This is controlled via the deleteBeforeReplace opt

For resources that have conflicting unique values then that automatically prevents adding before deleting Names are often required to be unique e g bucket names

If you re setting the name arg then you re probably coming up against this issue You re setting a must be unique value but not allowing Pulumi to generate non unique values for it

Its true that I am setting a name but all resources get a unique alphanumeric string at the end anyways So it still doesnt really make sense Or maybe Im missing something else

For most resources when you set name that overrides the random string To set the name but keep the random string you need to set namePrefix Check the specific resource that is causing the problem you may find that its name doesn t have the random suffix

Another possibility is that you re changing the Pulumi resource id the 1st arg to the constructor If you re doing that then technically Pulumi isn t deleting before creating it s deleting a removed resource and creating an entirely new one Are you changing the value of the name parameter
