Unable to delete a volume after running the snapmirror delete command on the relationship:

There are no entries matching your query.


cm3140c-rtp::> volume delete -vserver Sm_test -volume olah_1
Error: command failed: Volume "olah_1" in Vserver "Sm_test" is the source endpoint of one or more SnapMirror relationships. Before you delete the volume, you must release the source information of the SnapMirror relationships using "snapmirror release".
