Workspace Statuses

Understand IaCM workspace statuses so you can filter and identify workspaces by their current state.

This document provides an overview of workspace statuses, offering a quick glance at the number of workspaces in each status. It helps streamline workflow management by enabling you to filter and identify workspaces based on their current status.

Workspace Statuses:

• Active: Active workspaces are those with an active state file, provisioned from your OpenTofu/Terraform code.

• Inactive: Inactive workspaces are currently not in use and do not have an active state file.

• Provisioning: Workspaces with a provision pipeline running against them.

• Destroying: Workspaces undergoing the teardown process with a destroy pipeline actively running.

• Drifted: Workspaces where the actual infrastructure has drifted from the expected configuration. Go to Drift detection to understand how Harness detects drift, or go to the IaCM Remediation Agent to reconcile drift with a generated pull request.

• Apply_Needed: An apply is required to bring the infrastructure in sync with the workspace configuration.

  • This status appears when changes are detected but not yet applied, such as OpenTofu/Terraform code updates, modified variables or files, or changes to the provisioner version.

  • It is typically set after a plan step shows pending changes or when configuration is edited directly, helping you identify workspaces that are currently out-of-date.

• Rollback_Applied: The workspace state was rolled back to a previous version from the State tab. Run a plan to reconcile the rolled-back state with your live infrastructure. Go to Roll back workspace state to restore a previous version.

• Failed: Workspaces where the last operation did not complete successfully, requiring attention.

ENHANCED USABILITY

For enhanced usability, set default pipelines in your workspace configuration, so you can run provision and destroy pipelines directly against the workspace you are reviewing.
