No support for the Scale Out / Scale In resource actions

[Marcvd316]

Modifying the "_cluster" custom property of an existing IaaS deployment will destroy and recreate the deployment with the proper number of VMs, it should ideally use the Scale Out/Scale in option to add/remove VMs.

@Marcvd316 are you trying to update configuration after successfully deploying resource from terraform?
Could you please provide terraform configuration and more details about the issue would be good here.

Hi Viraj,

That is correct, I provision a vRA deployment using a configuration like this :

resource "vra7_resource" "CentOSVM" {
	catalog_name = "CentOS VM"
	catalog_configuration = {
		_deploymentName = "CentOS Example Deployment"
	}
	resource_configuration{
		vm._cluster = 2
	}

}

And later on, if I change the value of "vm._cluster" from 2 to 3 and use "terraform apply", it deletes my deployment and creates a new one with 3 VMs instead of 2. Ideally, it wouldn't delete my deployment, it would use the Scale out function to modify my existing deployment.
