02 — Create a Local-State Workload (baseline)

Goal

Create a tiny Terraform workload with local state first.

Why:

• We need a known local terraform.tfstate before we migrate it to Azure backend.
• This makes the migration step reproducible and verifiable.

Workdir: infra/workload/01-local-state

Files

providers.tf

terraform {
  required_version = ">= 1.6"
  required_providers {
    azurerm = {
      source  = "hashicorp/azurerm"
      version = "~> 3.0"
    }
  }
}

provider "azurerm" {
  features {}
}

main.tf

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "workload" {
  name     = "rg-workload-runbook"
  location = "westeurope"
}

---

Run (local state)

cd C:\Git\terraform-azure-backend-oidc-runbook\infra\workload\01-local-state

terraform init
terraform apply

Confirm with yes if prompted.

Verify local state exists

Get-ChildItem -Force

Expected to see:

• .terraform/

• .terraform.lock.hcl

• terraform.tfstate

Completion Criteria

Before proceeding to Step 03:

• Azure resource group rg-workload-runbook exists

• Local terraform.tfstate exists in the workdir
