Incorrect node_type Values and Deprecated Documentation for Tencent Elasticsearch Terraform Provider #4269

Description

@gyarlabs

The node_type values for Tencent Elasticsearch in the Terraform provider appear to be incorrect or outdated.

The documentation lists values such as ES_MEDIUM_SMALL, but these no longer work and result in an error during deployment.

I contacted Tencent Cloud Support, and they advised using instance specifications like 2C4G instead. However, using the documented values still fails, and the current documentation does not reflect this change.

Expected Behavior:

  • The documentation should list the currently supported node_type values.
  • The Terraform provider should accept the documented values, or the documentation should be updated if the API now expects values such as 2C4G.

Actual Behavior:

  • Documented values (e.g. ES_MEDIUM_SMALL) return an error.
  • Tencent Cloud Support recommends using 2C4G, which differs from the documented examples.

Additional Information:

  • Terraform resource: Tencent Cloud Elasticsearch
  • Issue confirmed after contacting Tencent Cloud Support.
