Remove a Sharepoint Site on Preservation Hold
UPDATE
I was able to fix the problem by creating a new policy with the same sharepoint sites of the original policy, and then removing the original policy. This seems to indicate that the problem lie with the policy itself.
It's very possible that I still have other policies that would be affected by this problem, but with a relatively easy fix I'm not too worried about it. If I run in to the situation again I'll be able to deal with it.
Also, a big shout out to the Compliance and Security support team, who so far have been great to deal with. Thanks!
I reproduced the issue over a screenshare with support, and they confirmed it's not working as expected. I'll let you know if they find a real bug, or if it's something else.
