error fetching recordset images for upsert operation: %v

Error message

error fetching recordset images for upsert operation: %v

What it means

Wraps a failure of rrsets.List in the CloudDNS changeset Apply when upserts are present: the provider must fetch the current record sets to compute the before/after diff, and that listing failed before the change was submitted.
