Hello all,

I'm looking for an high level, approved, workflow to completely remove a da=
tacenter and all its object.
Datacenter is made by 1 cluster, 1 server, 1 local storage, no VMs.
Hosted engine is on a different data center.
Everything is nicely working.

The administration guide<http://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/cha=
p-Data_Centers/> reads that:
"An active host is required to remove a data center. Removing a data center=
 will not remove the associated resources."
Actually, I *want* to remove all associated resources and forget about them=
.

So... is it correct to:

  1.  put the storage in maintenance,
  2.  then put datacenter on maintenance
  3.  finally remove the datacenter

will this cleanup also related storage and server? Yes, no? other suggested=
 actions?
Thank you
Andrea Ghelardi
