Summary

resource "bigip_ltm_profile_http" "http" {
  name                  = "/Common/xmp-http"
  defaults_from         = "/Common/http-transparent"
  insert_xforwarded_for = "enabled"
  fallback_host = "https://www.google.de"
}

Removing fallback_host results in

No changes. Your infrastructure matches the configuration.

Terraform has compared your real infrastructure against your configuration and found no differences, so no changes are needed.

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Resource

resource "bigip_ltm_profile_http" "http" {
  name                  = "/Common/xmp-http"
  defaults_from         = "/Common/http-transparent"
  fallback_host = "https://www.google.de"
}

2. terraform apply

resource "bigip_ltm_profile_http" "http" {
  name                  = "/Common/xmp-http"
  defaults_from         = "/Common/http-transparent"
}

4. terraform apply

No changes. Your infrastructure matches the configuration.

Terraform has compared your real infrastructure against your configuration and found no differences, so no changes are needed.

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Expected Behavior

Change the configuration and remove fallback_host .

Actual Behavior

Doesn't change and therefore wrong resources definition, wrong state and wrong configuraiton.

Note: to me it seems a general issue in the whole provider, that comparing state, definition and real configuration is not really reliable.
