Terraform Configuration Files

Initial configuration

data "vra_network" "network" {
  name = var.vmnetworkname
}

resource "vra_machine" "vm" {
  name          = var.vmname
  flavor        = var.vmflavorname
  image         = var.vmimagename
  project_id    = data.vra_project.project.id

  nics {
    network_id = data.vra_network.network.id
}

Updated configuration:

data "vra_network" "net1" {
  name = var.vm1networkname
}

data "vra_network" "net2" {
  name = var.vm1network2name
}

resource "vra_machine" "vm1" {
  name        = var.vm1name
  description = var.vm1description
  project_id  = data.vra_project.project1.id
  image       = var.vm1imagename
  flavor      = var.vm1flavorname

  nics {
    network_id = data.vra_network.net1.id
  }

  nics {
    network_id = data.vra_network.net2.id
  }
}

Expected Behavior

Adding a vra_network to an existing vra_machine and re-running terraform apply should add the additional network to the machine.

Actual Behavior

Terraform immediately returns that the modifications are complete. However, no changes have been made. It does not appear that any attempt is made to make this change.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a deployment with the a vra_machine connected to a network, add an additional network to the vra_machine and re-run terraform apply.
