Hi,

Thanks for the issue report! We are looking to address this issue in a future release.

Please note, that this will likely be a "dumb" deletion and recreation of the environment. If the existing environment has associated dSources and VDBs, we will fail gracefully as it will require copying of data blocks. This could take many hours and have other unintended consequences.

The migration or handling of data blocks is a separate item that would be handled at a DCT level first.

Thank you for the response @nick-mathison, I totally understand that when an environment has VDBs and Dsources associated this needs to be handled differently, migrating them first to another environment or deleting them. So in this case a graceful error is expected.
