SLA schedules are removed to early from ISPP

When the last VM or Database is removed from a SLA policy ISPP will also remove the complete schedule for this SLA.
Unfortunately this also includes all post processes like replication or archiving, which means the backup data will not be copied to a second vSnap or on tape/cloud. This completely affects the DR concept for the backup data.
The backup product should take care that all backed up data is protected as it's expected.

    There's a WARNING-popup when releasing a held schedule, but I think that it would be more naturally to have a warning when a schedule is HELD automatically for some reason. Or even better; do not modify the SLA-schedule at all (that is the intuitive solution). I thought a SLA was active until I modified it, even an empty SLA.

    I agree with the DR issue here too.
