importing existing deployment

[mac2000]

I have initialised fresh terraform with latest versions of everything

Imported deployment terraform import ec_deployment.dev 00000000000000000000000000000000

Did make sure that my manifest seems to be correct, so my local attempt to call terraform plan does say that everything is up to date and no actions needed

After creating an branch and pushing all that to github I have noticed that plan there differs and was:

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution
plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  ~ update in-place

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # ec_deployment.dev will be updated in-place
  ~ resource "ec_deployment" "dev" {
      + apm_secret_token       = (sensitive value)
      ~ elasticsearch          = {
          ~ cloud_id       = "dev:BASE64=" -> (known after apply)
          ~ config         = {
              + plugins = (known after apply)
            }
          ~ http_endpoint  = "http://00000000000000000000000000000000.europe-west3.gcp.cloud.es.io:9200" -> (known after apply)
          ~ https_endpoint = "https://00000000000000000000000000000000.europe-west3.gcp.cloud.es.io:443" -> (known after apply)
          ~ resource_id    = "00000000000000000000000000000000" -> (known after apply)
            # (12 unchanged attributes hidden)
        }
        id                     = "00000000000000000000000000000000"
        name                   = "dev"
        # (7 unchanged attributes hidden)
    }

Plan: 0 to add, 1 to change, 0 to destroy.

And what is even worse after applied it performs changes to CloudElastic which means it become unresponsive

From a portal I see an action to Kibana, saying that there is no significant changes and for Elastic I see:

Set http.cors_enabled to false
Set http.cors_allow_credentials to false
Set http.cors_max_age to 1728000
Set http.compression to true
Set monitoring_history_duration to 3d
Set monitoring_collection_interval to -1
Set destructive_requires_name to false
Set auto_create_index to true
Set scripting.inline.enabled to true
Set scripting.stored.enabled to true

Which makes import process really scary, I wish not to touch/import production deployment till understand whats going on

There are two issues:

• different plans locally and remotely
• changes to elastic should not be done at all we are just importing everything as is

I have second staging cluster, which have exactly same issues, so if I can help with some additional details will be glad to do that

---

What is even wrong, even so changes were applied, second run going to apply them once again 🤦‍♂️ while its happening I did run TF_LOG=TRACE terraform plan -no-color locally and in github, trying to check if there any significant difference and how noticed that terraform itself has different versions, so I have maked sure that my local terraform is exactly the same as in github and finally see the same change locally, but still it is not clear why does terraform tries to perform this changes

---

While I can reproduce it locally and it is an dev deployment, have tried to apply this changes, from elastic cloud portal I see applied changes with message

And indeed apply happened much faster than previous time

But still each time I run terraform plan it still says that it will perform in place update 🤔

Just in case here is terraform manifest

main.tf

resource "ec_deployment" "dev" {
  name                   = "dev"
  region                 = "gcp-europe-west3"
  version                = "7.17.1"
  deployment_template_id = "gcp-storage-optimized"

  elasticsearch = {
    autoscale = false
    hot = {
      zone_count = 3
      size       = "8g"
      autoscaling = {
        # max_size = "16g"
      }
    }
    master = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }

    cold = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }
    warm = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }
    ml = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }
    coordinating = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }
    frozen = {
      autoscaling = {}
    }
    config = {
    }
  }
  kibana = {
    zone_count  = 1
    size        = "1g"
    autoscaling = {}
  }
}
