A Data Protection replication can not be stopped from the UI. So here are the simple commands to type in ncli on the CVM to solve this.
First we need to get the replication job Id along with the name of the Protection Domain.
1. SSH to nutanix@{CVM_IP}
2. Type in the shell: ncli pd list-replication-status
Note the Id and Protection Domain for the next command
3. Type in the shell: ncli pd abort-replication name="{Protection Domain}" replication-ids="{Id}"
That’s it, the replication job should not be stopped and can now be deleted or updated from the Prism UI.
