NLB deletion protection interlock
Uninstall is rejected pre-flight if either NLBDeletionProtection or NLBInternalDeletionProtection is Yes:
cannot uninstall rack while NLB deletion protection is enabled;
run 'convox rack params set NLBDeletionProtection=No NLBInternalDeletionProtection=No' first
(current: NLBDeletionProtection=Yes)
The interlock fires as soon as either flag is set, even if the rack has only a public NLB or only an internal NLB. convox rack params set NLBDeletionProtection=No NLBInternalDeletionProtection=No is safe on Racks where one of the two flags was never enabled — setting a parameter to its existing default is a no-op.
The interlock runs before any destructive output. Clear the protection flags, wait for the rack update to complete, then rerun convox rack uninstall.
