You use a Cloud provider account that is shared with other team members. You previously used Terraform to create a load balancer that listens on port 80. After some application changes, you updated the Terraform code to change the port to 443. You run terraform plan and see that the execution plan shows the port changing from 80 to 443 like you intended, and step away to grab some coffee. In the meantime, another team member manually changes the load balancer port to 443 through the Cloud provider console before you get back to your desk. What will happen when you run terraform apply upon returning to your desk?
The correct answer is A. Option A: Terraform will not make any changes to the load balancer and will update the state file to reflect the manual change.
