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
