Hi @Boopathi S ,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

According to the error shown in the log file, the issue may be caused by the registry key "IssuingCertificateList" is missing from the registry subkey "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Security" on DP.

To solve the issue, we could copy the registry key "IssuingCertificateList" value from the registry subkey "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Security" on MP, and copy the value to the same registry key on DP.
