Can't Delete GUID

[Migration User]

I have an error shown below in my NS for a system that does not exist.  I have the GUID from the log file.  Is there a way to stop this error or delete the GUID from the database safely?

You just have to modify this line:  set @GUID = rtrim(ltrim('enter guid here'))

Its resultset will be a delete statement that you run in a different window.  You then run this query again, and run the delete statement it creates if it finds any remining locations.  If it doesnt find anythinbg, it will return two rows.
