I'm glad that i solved the problem but i would like to know why in the GUI:
1) The Force Remove Data Center didn't work ? I can understand the
Remove Data Center is the standard way to do it and it checks all is
working before doing it, but if it doesn't work the Force Remove would
remove it without checks (Storage Domains in maintenance ? Host not
configured ? SPM not working ?) maybe it can show a message that it is
not recommended but then it would work always and remove always a Data
Center
2) Is not there an option to Force Maintenance a Storage Domain without
a SPM host active or no Host configured ? Again an option that alert the
administrator about the possibile issues
Or
3) Is not there an option under Administration Panel that would permit
to Force the Maintenace of a Storage Domain (it is just a simple change
of a value of a field of a table in a Database).
Repeat i know how it would work, but then having a way to fix it if
someone has not followed the standard way to do it, would be easy (it is
just a value in a database that blocks removing the Data Center).
Just my opinions

Thanks, i solved putting all the Storage domains in maintenance
manually changing the status to the value of 6 in the postgres
database like you suggested.
After that i could remove the data center from the ovirt management
interface.
Thanks again for your help
