Protector considers a replication to have been removed from a dataflow if the link between the source and destination has been removed or the source and/or destination node has been removed.
If this is the case, then the data flow must have a new replication operation
added back in and then be reactivated by the user via the Data Flows Inventory. Because Protector considers this new
replication operation as an entirely new instance, the replication pair must be
created from scratch on the storage array. The old replication becomes a static
copy.
