[BUG] - invalid plan when attempting to deploy bare metal-- can only do vpc

[Sophrinix]

When I attempt to deploy a bare metal instance I get the following error

 Error: error creating server: {"error":"Invalid plan chosen.","status":400}
│ 
│   with vultr_instance.k8s-node[0],
│   on main.tf line 88, in resource "vultr_instance" "k8s-node":
│   88: resource "vultr_instance" "k8s-node" {

I have verified with

curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/plans-metal" \                    
 -X GET \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API}" | jq '.'

that I am in fact selecting a valid plan.

What i think is happening is somewhere in this provider code ,

 curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/plans" \   
-X GET \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API}" | jq '.'

is being used rather than both /v2/plans and /v2/plans-metal

if that is the case, where in the code is it calling /plans?

@Sophrinix What's the plan you're using? It's possible there's something funky on the platform.

[Sophrinix]

i have used several plan options.
I tried (which is also valid and in your unit tests)
"vbm-4c-32gb"

but i want vbm-24c-256gb-amd

I was able to provision that plan in the region ewr so I think it's working. Are you using a plan in a region where it doesn't exist? You can find the regions in the JSON output from that plans-metal call:

# update region code as relevant
curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/plans-metal" -X GET --silent | jq '.plans_metal | map(select(.locations[] | contains("ewr"))) | .[] | .id'


"vbm-6c-32gb"
"vbm-24c-256gb-amd"
"vbm-8c-132gb-v2"
""

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # vultr_bare_metal_server.bm1 will be created
  + resource "vultr_bare_metal_server" "bm1" {
      + app_id           = (known after apply)
      + cpu_count        = (known after apply)
      + date_created     = (known after apply)
      + default_password = (sensitive value)
      + disk             = (known after apply)
      + gateway_v4       = (known after apply)
      + id               = (known after apply)
      + image_id         = (known after apply)
