Comment 1 Martin Perina 2016-08-14 07:34:05 UTC 
Meni, this looks like error message from engine (maybe the is in RemoveDC command) and not REST, could you please test that you are able to force remove the same DC in webadmin?
Comment 2 Meni Yakove 2016-08-14 12:52:35 UTC 
I can force remove from UI.
Comment 3 Juan Hernández 2016-08-14 17:53:06 UTC 
This is a bug in the V3 compatibility layer, we will fix it. Meanwhile if you need to force a remove a data center you should be able to do it using the "force" parameter:

  DELETE /ovirt-engine/api/datacenters/{datacenter:id}?force=true
  Version: 3

Note that this parameter was added in version 4 of the API, but as version 3 of the API delegates most work to version 4, you can use it with version 3 as well.

I think that even if this is a regression, it isn't a blocker, because there is a workaround.
