amazon-web-services - Delete previous snapshots and create new snapshot of EBS volume using Terraform

Question

I need to create a snapshot of EBS volume using Terraform. I also have to consider that if the EBS volume has previously snapshots or not. If the EBS volume contains some previous snapshots then i need to delete them from my Terraform code and create a new snapshot of EBS volume.

I am not sure if deletion of resources is possible through Terraform code. If it is possible, how can i delete the previous snapshots and create new snapshot of EBS volume with Terraform.

不，这是不可能的。但是，如果以前的快照是由 terraform 创建的，那么在应用最新版本之前运行terraform destroy就可以完成这项工作。但是，如果这些快照是通过 terraform 以外的其他方式创建的，则根本不可能使用 terraform 删除它们。
