Terraform CLI and Terraform AWS Provider Version

Terraform v0.15.4
on linux_amd64

• provider registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/aws v3.47.0

Affected Resource(s)

• aws_servicecatalog_provisioned_product

Terraform Configuration Files

We aren't able to share these configuration files at present, but they're pretty standard. We have a Service Catalog product that provisions an AWS account using AWS Control Tower-generated CloudFormation. This provisioning takes longer than 3 minutes (and in general, CloudFormation templates can conceivably be expected to take longer depending on how many resources are being provisioned)

Debug Output

Panic Output

N/A

Expected Behavior

Terraform waits for the product to be fully provisioned before timing out.

Actual Behavior

Terraform times out after 3 minutes. This value of 3 minutes is hardcoded and seemingly unconfigurable.

When you run Terraform again, it will claim the resource is tainted, requiring manual effort to resolve.

Output looks like:

Error: error describing Service Catalog Provisioned Product (pp-xxxxxxxxxxxx): timeout while waiting for state to become 'AVAILABLE' (last state: 'UNDER CHANGE', timeout: 3m0s)

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

Important Factoids

We're using AWS Control Tower with Service Catalog. It should not be much different from provisioning regular CloudFormation, but it's worth mentioning our use case.
