+## Notes
+From the version v1.2.0, the module has removed the following `provider` setting:
+
+```hcl
+provider "alicloud" {
+   version              = ">=1.56.0"
+   region               = var.region != "" ? var.region : null
+   configuration_source = "terraform-alicloud-modules/elasticsearch-instance"
+}
+```
+
+If you still want to use the `provider` setting to apply this module, you can specify a supported version, like 1.1.0:
+
+```hcl
+module "instance" {
+   source         = "terraform-alicloud-modules/elasticsearch-instance/alicloud"
+   version        = "1.1.0"
+   region         = "cn-beijing"
+   password       = "Your password"
+   data_node_amount = "2"
+   // ...
+}
+```
+
+If you want to upgrade the module to 1.2.0 or higher in-place, you can define a provider which same region with
+previous region:
+
+```hcl
+provider "alicloud" {
+	region = "cn-beijing"
+}
+module "instance" {
+   source         = "terraform-alicloud-modules/elasticsearch-instance/alicloud"
+   password       = "Your password"
+   data_node_amount = "2"
+	// ...
+}
+```
+or specify an alias provider with a defined region to the module using `providers`:
+
+```hcl
+provider "alicloud" {
+   region = "cn-beijing"
+   alias  = "bj"
+}
+module "instance" {
+   source           = "terraform-alicloud-modules/elasticsearch-instance/alicloud"
+   providers        = {
+      alicloud = alicloud.bj
+   }
+   password         = "Your password"
+   data_node_amount = "2"
+   // ...
+}
+```
+
+and then run `terraform init` and `terraform apply` to make the defined provider effect to the existing module state.
