@1hermast sorry for the late reply, looking in to this

Let me have the team check what going on here. base of your playbook, and the code it looks like the initial delete is throwing the error, but we'll check why that is

    if self.use_rest:
        api = "storage/qtrees/%s" % self.volume_uuid
        query = {'return_timeout': 3}
        response, error = rest_generic.delete_async(self.rest_api, api, self.qid, query)
        if self.parameters['wait_for_completion']:
            dummy, error = rrh.check_for_error_and_job_results(api, response, error, self.rest_api)
        if error:
            self.module.fail_json(msg='Error deleting qtree %s: %s' % (self.parameters['name'], error))
