Question 17

Philip works at a payment processing company and manages the organization's VMware environment. He recently provisioned a new cluster for a production environment. To ensure everything is working as expected, Philip has been using Terraform and the VMware vSphere client to create and destroy new virtual machines. Currently, there are three virtual machines running on the new cluster, so Philip runs terraform destroy to remove the remaining virtual machines from the cluster. However, Terraform only removes two of the virtual machines, leaving one virtual machine still running.

Why would Terraform only remove two of the three virtual machines?

Terraform can only destroy a maximum of 2 resources per terraform destroy execution

the vSphere provider credentials are invalid, and therefore Terraform cannot reach the third virtual machine

the virtual machine was marked with vSphere tags to prevent it from being destroyed

the remaining virtual machine was not created by Terraform, therefore Terraform is not aware of the virtual machine and cannot destroy it
