Hi Team,
Currently we are managing our RDS instance manually. We are trying to use terraform to manage our RDS instance. We imported the existing RDS configuration and not changing the passowrd. We still see that the master password is getting reset in the terraform plan and also in the RDS console events. We are not changing the master password and I was able to login using the same old password and so I wanted to know why the password is resetting even though we are not changing it.
these are changes that Terraform is changing and our only concern is the password change.
resource “aws_db_instance” “rds_db” {
+ apply_immediately = false
+ password = (sensitive value)
~ skip_final_snapshot = true → false
I looked at the password in the tf statefile and it is same as the old password.
This issue is similar to How can I import an existing RDS instance without resetting its credentials but since our credentials are not getting changed I created another post.
