SRM not working after vCenter reinstalled from scratch

I had to reinstall vCenter from scratch and now SRM does not work. Tried to launch SRM and choose option "modify" as suggested in this article https://docs.vmware.com/en/Site-Recovery-Manager/5.8/com.vmware.srm.install_config.doc/GUID-55A0D565...

Modify a Site Recovery Manager Server Installation.  Modify started but when it comes to the certificate, it failed. The only what I found is log file from the second SRM server which says that there is a problem with the certificate (different PeerThumbprint and ExpectedThumbprint). The error message is similar to this article https://ssbkang.com/2014/10/23/site-recovery-manager-vcenter-server-ssl-replace/.

Is it possible to pair two SRM after rebuilding one of vCenter from scratch and getting a new certificate?

Is possible to update SRM to accept new Thumbprint/certificate from reinstalled vCenter?

Vmware version is 5.5. and SRM is 5.8.
