Retirement of a Vm or Instance should not delete it from the database.  Retirement should remove the Vm or Instance from the provider but the Vm or Instance should still be in the database.

Comment 3 Mike Shriver 2017-05-18 08:49:08 EDT

Tested against CFME 5.8.0.14 with rhevm and ec2 providers.

Instances/VMs retired through the CFME UI are not deleted from the VMDB, and their records are maintained.

This allows administrators to un-retire resources when available, and to maintain accurate C&U/chargeback metrics.
