How to stop or force replication between servers to stop

This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hi.
This is the scenario :
We have installed SEPM on two different virtual servers. One of the servers stopped working and we had to reinstall it.
From the first server with SEPM the second one is still visible (since it was configured as a replication server).
And now I am unable to either delete the second one or add a new replication server.
I just get the message "replication is currently running". This message has been visible for several days.
Anyone know how to stop of force the replication to stop ?

Hi,
if you cannot delete a replication partner... it seems the installation is damaged...
Check the database integrity:
run C:\programs\symantec\SEPM\tools\dbvalidator.bat
open the resulting \SEPM\tomcat\logs\dbvalidator.log
at the end of the file you can read the result.
If it is failed you have to restore a good DB from a backup copy. See the Disaster Recovery procedure described in the CD1\documentation\installation_guide.pdf

Hi.
Nothing wrong found in the txt file.
Since I don't have a backup copy, you suggest I delete the second SEPM server or the main one (where I am unable to delete the replication) ?
My suggestions
Try to delete the whole "remote sites" tree from the main SEPM.
If it is not possible I think you should apply the Disaster Recovery procedure without the backup of the DB. You will lose your settings (stored in the DB) but you will restore the communication with your clients. You can export/import your policies to save them.
The second SEPM should be useless in this moment.
The above suggestions are based on what I understood in this discussion but If you want or need a better evaluation of your situation, and maybe a better solution, you should call our Support.
