Explanation

This Error event indicates that a valid Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate was not found on the server on which this event occurs. A TLS certificate is required for a Hub Transport server to use and update the EdgeSync replication account credentials.

To resolve this error, use one or more of the following methods:

Create a new TLS certificate for the server, and then resubscribe the Edge Transport server. You do not have to remove the Edge Subscription to resubscribe. To overwrite the existing Edge Subscription, run the New-EdgeSubscription cmdlet in the Exchange Management Shell on both the Edge Transport server and the Hub Transport server. For more information, see New-EdgeSubscription
Review the Application log and System log on your Exchange 2010 servers for related events. For example, events that occur immediately before and after this event may provide more information about the root cause of this error.
Review the Operations Console in Operations Manager for detailed information about the cause of this alert. For more information, see the "Introduction" section in this topic.
