credit specification of a t4 instance ignored

[rafalkrupinski]

Hello!

Hi, I'm creating a t4g instance with 'standard' cpu credit but it's created with 'unlimited'

Issue details

I use this object to start t4Nano instance

new aws.ec2.Instance('bastion', {
    instanceType: aws.ec2.InstanceType.T4g_Nano,
    ami,
    creditSpecification: { cpuCredits: 'standard' },
});

But console shows its credit specification is 'unlimited' and the aws cli doesn't show anything regarding credits.

I was able to create identical instance with standard CPU credits via aws console.

version v3.22.1

This appears to be an upstream issue: hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws#15156

Ah, the link has a workaround too, thank you @danielrbradley

Should the issue remain open until upstream bug is closed?

[danielrbradley]

Yup, happy to leave open to help direct anyone else who encounters the issue 👍

The upstream issue got closed in June 2022, so I'm closing this one too
