I have an AWS Aurora RDS cluster which I am upgrading from serverless v1 to serverless v2.
The AWS documentation[1] suggests that the first step in this process via the AWS CLI is to use the --engine-mode and --allow-engine-mode-change parameters in modify-db-cluster.
I have confirmed that this works via the AWS CLI.
However, in Pulumi if I change my aws.rds.Cluster's engineMode value from "serverless" to "provisioned" and try a pulumi up, the process fails ("DB Cluster already exists") as it tries to replace the cluster. There doesn't seem to be an equivalent to the allow-engine-mode-change parameter in the aws.rds.Cluster definition in the Pulumi documentation [2].
I am using Pulumi version 3.70.0.
Can anyone suggest where I'm going wrong, please? Grateful thanks in advance for any assistance.
This conversion capability was implemented recently:
Aurora Serverless v1 supports conversion to provisioned You can convert an Aurora Serverless v1 DB cluster directly to a provisioned > DB cluster. For more information, see Converting an Aurora Serverless v1 DB > cluster to provisioned. April 27, 2023
from: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/WhatsNew.html
So it's not surprising that corresponding support isn't there yet in IaC tools. You could raise a feature request at https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues
