Gateway unable to connect to Management server

Hi,

We are currently having an issue with one of Gateway servers which is not able to connect to RMS server. We had tried re-issuing the Root certificate and the other client certificates as per http://www.definit.co.uk/2012/01/troublewithscom2007r2certificates/ 

But still we have the same issue. PSB the events being triggered on the G/W server.

Hi,

My first guess would be that the root certificate is missing. You can check this via the certificates mmc.
When it comes to using certificates many mistakes can be made. For this reason i created a blog about this which can be found here:

Hope this helps you out.

Hi,

Thanks for the blog..I had followed the blog and have imported the root certificates. But still get the same error.

Followed by 21019 which says returned to communicating with its primary host, then connection gets closed with a 20070 and 21016 error.

Port to the SCOM server is open.

Steps to solve issue:

  1. Check for eventids (20067, 20070,  21016)
  2. Export certificate from Local\Computer\Personal\Certificate Folder
    Save as DER encoded binary X.509 (.CER) file.
  3. Run certutil -urlfetch -verify <cert.cer> tool on cer file exported in step 2.
  4. Search certutil output for errors, like retrieving URL: The server name or address could not be resolved 0x80072ee7 (WIN32: 12007)
  5. Open Internet Explorer and copy URL that cannot be resolved. If you cannot download the *.crt file look at your proxy settings. These should be empty of correct.
  6. Correct proxy settings.
  7. [not sure if step 7 is really needed] Remove certificates from Local\Computer\Personal\Certificate Folder and Local\Computer\Operations Manager\Certificate folder
  8. Import certificate again in Local\Computer\Personal\Certificate folder
    You can run certutil -urlfetch -verify <cert.cer> tool again to see if there are still any errors.
  9. Run MomCertImport <nameofcertexport>.pfx again.
  10. Check eventlog for restart of HealthService (will be restarted after running MOMCertImport) and if everything is ok now.

Hi,

The server must be able to reach the URL configured in the certificate to check if it's valid.

I think you found the problem here.

Hi,

Could you please explain how i could resolve the URL for Root CA to an IP?

June 16th, 2014 5:07am

can you resolve the name of the server in the url by using nslookup?

nslookup ROOT.CERT.SERVERNAME

Hi Scott,

Could be a silly qn in this forum. But i am unable to find any such url .

When i do a lookup with nslookup root.cert.servername i get local cant find root.cert.servername: non-existant domain

Note : I have only changed the servername to the Gateway server name.

Hi Scott,

Request your help in this issue. I did a nslookup on the G/W servername and could resolve the Group policy server name and IP.
