Missing aws_autoscaling_group.termination_policies cause changes on each apply

[radeksimko]

If you don't define termination_policies within an aws_autoscaling_group, Terraform always detects a change.

provider "aws" {
  region = "eu-west-1"
}

resource "aws_vpc" "default" {
  cidr_block = "10.12.0.0/16"
}

resource "aws_subnet" "private" {
  availability_zone = "eu-west-1a"
  cidr_block = "10.12.0.0/24"
  vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.default.id}"
}

resource "aws_security_group" "sample" {
  description = "Sample sg"
  vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.default.id}"
  name = "sample"
}

resource "aws_launch_configuration" "sample" {
  name = "sample"
  image_id = "ami-8f0087f8"
  instance_type = "t2.small"
  associate_public_ip_address = false
  key_name = "coreos-test"
  security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.sample.id}"]
}

resource "aws_autoscaling_group" "sample" {
  name = "sample"
  availability_zones = ["eu-west-1a"]
  launch_configuration = "${aws_launch_configuration.sample.name}"
  min_size = 1
  max_size = 3
  desired_capacity = 1
  vpc_zone_identifier = ["${aws_subnet.private.id}"]
}

No matter how many times you run terraform apply, you'll always see following:

aws_autoscaling_group.sample: Refreshing state... (ID: sample)
aws_autoscaling_group.sample: Modifying...
  termination_policies.#: "" => "<computed>"
aws_autoscaling_group.sample: Modifications complete

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 1 changed, 0 destroyed.

I think that if no termination_policies option is given, it should automatically use Default, there's AFAIK nothing to "compute"?

I reckon that this will help making it happen :)

Yup #923 will fix once merged 😀

[radeksimko]

Ah, I've just noticed, this is probably going to be a duplicate in favour of #923 so I'm closing this one.

[radeksimko]

well, silly things happen when I forget what I read/said before just a few comments above... ignore what I just said. I'll keep it closed anyway as it's now linked.
