A VPG has been removed and the virtual machines in the VPG are no longer protected. The virtual machines are removed and if the target disks are saved they can be used as preseeded disks if the virtual machines are reprotected. The location of the preseeded disk is specified in the description of the event, EV0040: Remove VM from VPG and keep disk.
Note: If the VPG was not successfully removed, it can still be forcibly removed. If a test failover, failover or move operation is being performed on the VPG, the VPG is not removed.
