Remove a Provider vDC

Before you can remove a provider vDC, you must disable it. After the provider vDC has been disabled, its
representation includes a rel="remove" link. A system administrator can make a DELETE request to that link
to remove a provider vDC from a vCloud. The response contains a Task that tracks the delete operation.
