create protection group failed

when i create protection group, i get error: create protection group failed.

in fact, the protection group is created but in a suspect state,(see attached) . then i configure protection for this vm, still get error:

Operation failed because object is in an invalid creation state, and must be deleted.

in the SRM error log:

Can you attach full SRM logs from both sites?

Are you able to remove the protection group and create a new one in its place?
