Add stronger warning against attempting a shared tier upgrade (#516)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Users who attempt to upgrade from a shared tier cluster (M2/M5) to a dedicated tier cluster - even though it is called out as unsupported - will destroy the shared tier and create a dedicated tier.  This is due to the fact that upgrades are not supported yet Terraform will still try to make the changes it sees in the config.   Adding stronger language to the call out that this is not supported since it will result in data lost from the shared tier cluster.

~> **IMPORTANT:**
<br> &#8226; Free tier cluster creation (M0) is not supported via API or by this Provider.
<br> &#8226; Shared tier clusters (M2, M5) cannot be upgraded to higher tiers via API or by this Provider.
<br> &#8226; Shared tier clusters (M2, M5) cannot be upgraded to higher tiers via API or by this Provider. WARNING! If you attempt to upgrade from an existing shared tier cluster that you manage with this Provider to a dedicated cluster (M10+) Terraform will see it as a request to destroy the shared tier cluster and as a request to create a dedicated tier cluster, i.e. Terraform will not see it as a request to upgrade. If you accept the plan in this case the shared tier cluster would be destroyed and you would lose the data on that cluster. Do not attempt to upgrade from the shared to dedicated tier via this Provider, it is not supported!
<br> &#8226; Changes to cluster configurations can affect costs. Before making changes, please see [Billing](https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/billing/).
<br> &#8226; If your Atlas project contains a custom role that uses actions introduced in a specific MongoDB version, you cannot create a cluster with a MongoDB version less than that version unless you delete the custom role.
