Looking for key difference between [auto_defer] and [auto_defer_once_enabled]. thanks

auto_defer - differs all maintenance other than "Urgent Maintenance Activity" i.e. Security patches
auto_defer_once_enabled - differs ALL maintenance ... this might not be ideal IF there is a 'zero day security vulnerability' which needs to be applied

Request update on the above

Hello @Natarajan77 .

The following documentation can provide more context on each attribute:

• defer: Resource does a one time call to https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/Maintenance-Windows/operation/deferMaintenanceWindow when modified or set to true in create.
• auto_defer: Resource does a one time call to https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/Maintenance-Windows/operation/toggleMaintenanceAutoDefer when modified or set to true in create.
• auto_defer_once_enabled: Associated to property in https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/v2/#tag/Maintenance-Windows/operation/updateMaintenanceWindow.

I do agree our documentation is not clear on how to use defer and auto_defer, or how auto_defer and auto_defer_once_enabled are different.

We will let you know when we have updates on this.
