What would be the impact of confirming to delete all the resources in Terraform?

AIt destroys all the resources in the . tfvars file

BIt destroys all the resources tied to the AWS Identity and Access Management (1AM) user.

CIt destroys all the resources in the resource group

DIt destroys all the resources in the state file.

DIt destroys all the resources in the state file.
Terraform State File Role: The terraform.tfstate file contains a real-time mapping of the resources that Terraform manages, including their current configuration and relationships. This file tracks the actual state of resources provisioned by Terraform.
Impact of Destruction: When Terraform prompts for confirmation to destroy resources, and 'yes' is entered, Terraform reads the state file and systematically removes all the resources that are managed as part of that state. This is not limited to a specific .tfvars file, IAM user, or resource group---it is a global action that affects all resources tracked by the state file associated with the current Terraform workspace and configuration.

Terraform, the great resource eraser! Just make sure you have a good backup before you hit that delete button.

I learned that the hard way once, lost a lot of resources because I didn't have a backup.

I'd be double-checking that state file before hitting enter on that one. Don't want to accidentally nuke the whole production environment!

Woah, deleting everything? That's going to be a real mess to clean up! Better be super careful with that terraform destroy command.

Option D is the correct answer. The state file contains the complete state of all resources managed by Terraform, so deleting everything in the state file would destroy all the resources.
