Requirement:-
I have multiple group(say 2 groups) of EC2s where each group contain 6 EC2. and I have to attach different SG to each group.
Example:-
Group1 contains :- Head1, child :EC2-1, EC2-2....6 and need to attach SG1
Group2 contains :- Head2, child :EC2-3, EC2-4 ...6 and need to attach SG2
I don't want to write separate resource "aws_instance" Head-Module
resource "aws_security_group" "sg" {
count = var.ec2_instance_count
name = "${local.account}${count.index}"
vpc_id = local.vpc_id
}
resource "aws_instance" "ec2_instance" {
count = var.ec2_instance_count
security_groups = [element(aws_security_group.sg.*.id, count.index)]
}
Child-Module:
data "aws_security_groups" "data_security_group" {
filter {
name = "group-name"
values = ["${local.account}${count.index}"]
}
}
resource "aws_instance" "ec2_child" {
count = var.ec2_instance_count*var.numberofchild
security_groups = [element(aws_security_group.data_security_group.*.id, count.index)]
}
Error: Error launching source instance: InvalidGroup.NotFound: The security group 'terraform-2020082 4151444795600000001' does not exist in VPC 'vpc-ghhje85abcy' status code: 400, request id: 9260fd88-a03a-4c46-b67c-3287594cdab5
on main.tf line 68, in resource "aws_instance" "ec2_instance": 68: resource "aws_instance" "ec2_instance" {
Note: I am using data "aws_security_groups"
instead of data "aws_security_group"
. If I use the later one, I know I will be able to get only one SG in the data resource and it throws me an error :multiple Security Groups matched; from which I kind of moved ahead by using data "aws_security_groups"
and this error get vanished. but the latest error I m facing is: InvalidGroup.NotFound as mentioned above.
Update: I am able to use data resource and able to attach the different SG to different EC2. the only issue is random Sequencing. for all 6 EC2 of group 1 I want them to assign first SG and so on.

Thanks Helder, I created the resource with count. its not the huge infrastructure but a fairly complex one. 8 groups (each group has 1 Parent and 6 child EC2) There is 1 External SG for all parents. and 8 internal SG 1 for each group). I had to follow a sequence of provisioning because the requirement was to pass the "Parent Host name" to respective group of Childs in "Childs User data" so I had to keep them in a separate modules and used "data" resources for reuse.
ParentModule:
resource "aws_instance" "ec2_instance" {
count = tonumber(var.mycount)
vpc_security_group_ids = [data.aws_security_group.external_security_group.id, element(data.aws_security_group.internal_security_group.*.id, count.index)]
...
}
resource "aws_security_group" "internal_security_group" {
count = tonumber(var.mycount)
name = "${var.internalSGname}${count.index}"
}
resource "aws_security_group" "external_security_group" {
name = ${var.external_sg_name}"
}
ChildModule: with Data resource and used dynamic map to assignment of SG to Proper group of EC2.
data "aws_security_group" "internal_security_group" {
count = tonumber(var.mycount)
filter {
name = "group-name"
values = "${var.internalSGname}${count.index}"]
}
}
resource "aws_instance" "ec2_child" {
count = local.child_count * tonumber(var.mycount)
vpc_security_group_ids = ["${element(data.aws_security_group.internal_security_group.*.id, "${lookup(local.SG_lookup, count.index, 99)}")}"]
variable.tf
locals{
SG_lookup = {
for n in range(0, (local.child_count * tonumber(var.mycount))) :
n => "${floor(((n) / local.child_count))}"
}
}
}

Don't use the data, instead create your resource "aws_security_group"
using a count like you do on your resource "aws_instance"
that way you can reference them directly...
resource "aws_security_group" "sg" {
count = var.ec2_instance_count
name = "${local.account}${count.index}"
vpc_id = local.vpc_id
}
resource "aws_instance" "ec2_instance" {
count = var.ec2_instance_count
security_groups = [element(aws_security_group.sg.*.id, count.index)]
}
