No way to attach managed_disk as Data disk to a existing VM?

[woosley]

I am trying to accomplish VM creation and data disk attachment in this order

1. create a managed_disk
2. create a VM, without creating any data disk
3. attach the managed_disk as datadisk to the created VM

but it seems not possible accroding to the document. The only way to create data disk for a VM is when a vm is created by azurerm_virtual_machine with storage_os_disk

is there any limitation in the backgroud or this feature is just missing? I really want this feature if possible.

@woosley this is a duplicate of #734 where this work is being tracked. Please ignore the “done” state above, that’s coming from a GitHub project. Thanks!

I don't think it is duplicated. what I want is something like old azure_data_disk described here
https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azure/r/data_disk.html. The issue described in #734 is just the new data disk can not be attached.

@woosley apologies, the wrong issue is linked above, this is duplicating #795
