Terraform

1.7.4

Terraform Provider

v2.6.1

VMware vSphere

v7.0.3

Description

The vsphere_vapp_entity settings are only created/set for a single VM in the loop. Maybe the first completed... not sure. A second run is needed to apply the settings for all VMs.

Affected Resources or Data Sources

resource/vsphere_vapp_entity

Terraform Configuration

This is my config. I create several (k8s-server-/k8s-agent-) VMs using a count loop.

resource "vsphere_vapp_entity" "vapp-entity-server-nodes" {
  for_each = { for idx, moid in vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-server-nodes.*.moid : idx => {"moid" = moid} }
  target_id    = each.value.moid
  container_id = "${vsphere_vapp_container.vapp_container.id}"
  start_action = "powerOn"
  stop_action  = "guestShutdown"
  start_order = 1
  start_delay = 30
  stop_delay = 30

  depends_on = [ vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-server-nodes ]
}

resource "vsphere_vapp_entity" "vapp-entity-agent-nodes" {
  for_each = { for idx, moid in vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-agent-nodes.*.moid : idx => {"moid" = moid} }
  target_id    = each.value.moid
  container_id = "${vsphere_vapp_container.vapp_container.id}"
  start_action = "powerOn"
  stop_action  = "guestShutdown"
  start_order = 2
  start_delay = 30
  stop_delay = 30

  depends_on = [ vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-agent-nodes ]
}

resource "vsphere_vapp_entity" "vapp-entity-rke-lb" {
  target_id    = "${vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-lb.moid}"
  container_id = "${vsphere_vapp_container.vapp_container.id}"
  start_action = "powerOn"
  stop_action  = "guestShutdown"
  start_order = 1
  start_delay = 30
  stop_delay = 30

  depends_on = [ vsphere_virtual_machine.rke-lb ]
}

Debug Output

I have removed everything after the vsphere provider exited.. https://gist.github.com/erSitzt/166b721cdad2605cab740269304996b5

Panic Output

No response

Expected Behavior

All settings in one go..

Actual Behavior

Two runs necessary to finish the configuration

Steps to Reproduce

Create vsphere_vapp_entity for a bunch of VMs created by using count
