What would be the impact of confirming to delete all the resources in Terraform?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Confirming to delete all the resources in Terraform will have the following impact:

D) It destroys all the resources in the state file.

Terraform State File Role: The terraform.tfstate file contains a real-time mapping of the resources that Terraform manages, including their current configuration and relationships. This file tracks the actual state of resources provisioned by Terraform.

Impact of Destruction: When Terraform prompts for confirmation to destroy resources, and 'yes' is entered, Terraform reads the state file and systematically removes all the resources that are managed as part of that state. This is not limited to a specific .tfvars file, IAM user, or resource group---it is a global action that affects all resources tracked by the state file associated with the current Terraform workspace and configuration.

Hmm, let's see... Deleting everything tied to the IAM user? That's like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I'll stick with the state file, thank you very much. D all the way!

Ah, the old 'nuke it from orbit' approach. Bold move, but I think I'll play it safe and go with D. Gotta protect that state file, ya know?

I think so too. It's always risky to delete all resources without considering the consequences.

Whoa, hold up there, partner! Destroying everything in the state file? That's like setting your house on fire just to get rid of one pesky ant. Let's be a bit more surgical, shall we?

I believe the state file holds the current state of the infrastructure, so deleting all resources in it would have a bigger impact.

But what about option A, where it says it destroys all the resources in the .tfvars file?

I agree with Lorean, confirming to delete all resources in Terraform would destroy everything in the state file.

Deleting all resources? That's like nuking the entire site from orbit - the only way to be sure! D is the way to go here.
