Can't update aws.elasticache.ReplicationGroup node type

[Tirke]

What happened?

Updating the nodeType of a aws.elasticache.ReplicationGroup doesn't do anything.

Steps to reproduce

Create a cache

const cache = new aws.elasticache.ReplicationGroup(`${env}-${name}-cache`, {
    automaticFailoverEnabled: false,
    nodeType: instanceType,
    numCacheClusters: 1,
    port: 6379,
    description: description,
    transitEncryptionEnabled: false,
    atRestEncryptionEnabled: true,
    securityGroupIds: [cacheSecurityGroup.id],
    subnetGroupName: subnetGroupElastic.name,
  })

Update the nodeType -> cache.t2.small -> cache.t3.medium

Pulumi starts doing it's thing

Expected Behavior

Elasticache is updating the nodeType.

Actual Behavior

Nothing. pulumi up again after is saying that nodeType needs to be updated. Nothing is happening on AWS console.

Pulumi doesn't read pnpm lock file :p

This looks like a result of the following upstream bug: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/24733

Once the bug is resolved in the upstream provider, we'll update the dependency here and the issue should be resolved.

Ran into this issue today myself!

Curious why we need to wait for terraform update before this can be addressed on Pulumi side?

Is that because Pulumi is built on terraform? Unfortunate to see Pulumi does not have capability to fix this issue on their own and is dependent on an upstream vendor for a fix

[jkodroff]

@joeypunzel Bridged (that is, non-native) providers in Pulumi take a Terraform provider as a dependency. We do not take a dependency on the Terraform core.
