I am using terraform to provision gke clusters. Currently if we have to modify the node pool properties we do it manually (create new nodepool, cordon old nodepool, drain nodes). Is there a way i can automate it using terraform itself? currently if i change any properties it destroys and recreates the entire node.

You can use the
lifecycle {
create_before_destroy = true
}
in terraform so it will create the Node pool first and then stop the old instance or node pool.
