APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Deleting a volume configuration will also appears to remove all
    associated volumes. This renders PureApplication System unable
    to administer the volume to make further changes, such as
    detaching from an instance and re-attaching to another instance
    or deleting. If the volume is later manually removed, placement
    will not be aware of this and will need to be cleaned up by IBM
    service representative.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Removing a storage volume or virtual machine caused a cascading
    delete in the PureApplication System management database,
    deleting the volume configuration database entry and entries
    for all associated volumes. This did not actually delete the
    volume, but it rendered PureApplication System unable to
    administer the volume to make further changes, such as
    detaching from an instance and re-attaching to another
    instance. or physically deleting the volume.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Added checks for linked volumes to prevent deletion of both
    virtual machines and disk volumes. New messages added
    CWZIP7901E Volume configuration cannot be deleted due to linked
    volumes
    CWZIP7902E Virtual machine configuration cannot be deleted due
    to linked instances
