Challenge
When adding a Service Provider on the tenant's Veeam Backup & Replication, either of the following errors occurs:
Certificate validation failed. Unable to connect to the service provider.
Certificate validation failed. Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.
Solution
Veeam Support engineers are only able to assist with the isolation of certificate problems. Veeam Support is unable to assist in generating, altering, importing, exporting, or installing SSL certificates.
Please refer to your SSL certificate provider for more information on certificate processes.
