Everything ended well - despite the warning 'do not shutdown' I powered off and
powered on the VM.
This action allowed me to trigger a snapshot deletion (again) and it completed
successfully.
Removing the disk of interest also completed successfully.
So, I got a happy ending.

I think I'm getting closer.
It seems the snapshot of the VM did not get deleted and that might be the problem.
Can someone give me a hint how to remove the snapshot as I get an error:
Cannot remove Snapshot. The following disks are in ILLEGAL status: uyuni-OS-Disk1 -
please remove them and try again.
Yet, removal of the disk cannot happen as I got:
Cannot detach Virtual Disk. The disk is already configured in a snapshot. In order to
detach it, remove the disk's snapshot.
This seems like 'Catch 22' .
