This means it’s shown correctly in a plan and takes into account any
actions that are dependant on the tainted resource and, vice verse, any
actions that the tainted resource depends on.
So this changes the behaviour from saying this resource is tainted so
just forget about it and make sure it gets deleted in the background,
to saying I want that resource to be recreated (taking into account the
existing resource and it’s place in the graph).
Adds an "alias" field to the provider which allows creating multiple instances
of a provider under different names. This provides support for configurations
such as multiple AWS providers for different regions. In each resource, the
provider can be set with the "provider" field.
(thanks to Cisco Cloud for their support)
Deposed instances need to be stored as a list for certain pathological
cases where destroys fail for some reason (e.g. upstream API failure,
Terraform interrupted mid-run). Terraform needs to be able to remember
all Deposed nodes so that it can clean them up properly in subsequent
runs.
Deposed instances will now never touch the Tainted list - they're fully
managed from within their own list.
Added a "multiDepose" test case that walks through a scenario to
exercise this.
