I want to add a new front end ip configuration to an existing LB.
The example in the docs shows only how to create a new LB. I tried doing that anyway just to see if the azure provider would be smart enough to understand that there is already an LB with the name I put, but it wasn’t and terraform plan shows that it’ll try to create a new LB. This is what I have:
resource "azurerm_lb" "hmg-loadbalancer" {
name = "the-name-of-an-existing-load-balancer-in-this-resource-group"
location = data.azurerm_resource_group.resource_group.location
resource_group_name = data.azurerm_resource_group.resource_group.name
sku = "Standard"
frontend_ip_configuration {
name = "a new frontend ip config"
public_ip_address_id = azurerm_public_ip.msging-storage-httptransport-ip.id
}
}
This is what the plan shows:
# azurerm_lb.hmg-loadbalancer will be created
+ resource "azurerm_lb" "hmg-loadbalancer" {
+ id = (known after apply)
+ location = "brazilsouth"
+ name = "hmg-loadbalancer"
+ private_ip_address = (known after apply)
+ private_ip_addresses = (known after apply)
+ resource_group_name = "redacted"
+ sku = "Standard"
+ tags = (known after apply)
+ frontend_ip_configuration {
+ id = (known after apply)
+ inbound_nat_rules = (known after apply)
+ load_balancer_rules = (known after apply)
+ name = "msging-storage-httptransport"
+ outbound_rules = (known after apply)
+ private_ip_address = (known after apply)
+ private_ip_address_allocation = (known after apply)
+ public_ip_address_id = (known after apply)
+ public_ip_prefix_id = (known after apply)
+ subnet_id = (known after apply)
}
}
