Refer to the exhibit. What would be the impact of confirming to delete all the resources in Terraform?
The correct answer is C. It destroys all the resources in the state file. When you confirm a terraform destroy, Terraform deletes all resources that are tracked in its state file. The state file represents the managed infrastructure, so only those resources defined and tracked there will be destroyed.
