Unable to configure replication for virtual machine 'SRM-Test1' because group 'SRM-Test1' cannot be created. Another virtual machine 'SRM-Test1' that has the same instance UUID '5037f550-d473-1fdc-88b9-dc1285e85615' already exists on protection site 'KHVMVCS01.adlabs.com'.

Cause:- 1) In the month of October our "Point to Point" Lease line network shutdown due ISP's issue.

2) We move to VPN via Intenet with SonicWall firewall NSA 3600 and its blocked our replication by firewall .

Troublshhot:- 1) Recently we came to know this is replication blocking by Firewall DPI-SSL, but before that we do lots of exercise  with Production DR site Replication Server. We forcefully  disconnect Replication and its cleared "production side but not DR side. Due that the above error is came.

2) We now made replication server in exclude list and but the same error came.

3) New Replication is working fine.

Please find my environment details.

Production Site :- Vsphere 6.5 with Replication 6.5

Dr Site:- Vsphere 6.5 with Replication 6.5

Guys need your support to solve the issue.
