When adding an Object Storage Repository or interacting with an existing Object Storage Repository the following error occurs: Failed to retrieve certificate from ... The format of the error is different for each type of Object Storage Repository:
This error occurs because the Veeam software could not retrieve and verify the certificate from the cloud storage endpoint. Review the Used Ports section of the User Guide and ensure proper communication with object storage repositories. Most Common Causes DNS Ensure that the Veeam Backup Server and any configured Gateway server can resolve and reach the object storage endpoints. Firewall Review relevant firewalls in the environment to ensure that the Veeam Backup Server and any configured Gateway server are permitted to reach the endpoints via the required ports. General Internet Connection Issue If the issue is not related to the above, contact your Internet Provider to check if there are any network drops. Edge Case Though rare, several Veeam Support cases have been closed by the customer after they reported that they determined that their security firewall was interfering with or tampering Customer's comment to Veeam Support: "We have excluded all of the Veeam hosts from decryption in our firewall, and the issue is no longer happening."with the certificates that the Veeam software was requesting. Those security firewalls either prevented the certificate from being received or modified the certificate, preventing Veeam Backup & Replication from validating them.
When the certificate error occurs while attempting to add the Object Storage Repository, the certificate retrieval is recorded in the following log file on the Veeam Backup Server: C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup\Satellites\<VeeamServer>\<console_account>\Satellite_Console.log <VeeamServer> = hostname or FQDN of the Veeam Backup Server<console_account> = account used to open the Veeam Backup & Replication Console.
