However, sometimes, instead of destroying resources, all you want to do is shut them down or disable them. This is also doable using remote-exec in terraform

Shutting down an EC2 instance on aws

resource "aws_instance" "app" {
  # ...

  provisioner "remote-exec" {
    when    = "destroy"
    inline = [ "systemctl stop service" ]
  }
}
