Currently, we are able to deploy Postgres instances through the ibm_database resource. However, many of the configuration options are unavailable to us. We are currently trying to configure the max connections for our postgres instances which is a cli command tied to cdb

ibmcloud cdb deployment-configuration agrotech-db-postgres-prod-us-south  '{"configuration":{"max_connections":1600}}'

However, this is not available through the ibmcloud terraform provider. Along this same vein we also need to be able to set the logging abilities on the cluster which is not available due to the same limitation.

Do we have any idea when this work might be put into sprint? We need to determine if we need to work around this or if something will be available to us prior to moving into production.
