What you want to see is the 'delete_on_termination' field which was 
added in API microversion 2.3 [1] and with OSC, you need to pass the 
needed microversion to the CLI, for example:

openstack --os-compute-api-version 2.3 server show <server>

And as of API microversion 2.85 [2], it's possible to change the value 
of 'delete_on_termination' if desired.

If you're on an older version than has 2.85 and 'delete_on_termination' 
is True, then maybe you could migrate the volume in cinder before 
deleting the instance as a way to preserve the volume?

Hope this helps,
