Retrieve Certificate Thumbprint
Run the following SQL query against the existing VSPC database to retrieve the thumbprint of the certificate used for communication with managed agents.
SELECT RootCertThumbprint FROM [VeeamBR].[ServerSettings]
Export Certificate
Use the following PowerShell commands to export the active Veeam Service Provider Console Security Certificate.
Note:
$mypwd = Get-Credential
Get-ChildItem -Path cert:\localMachine\my\{thumbprint} | Export-PfxCertificate -FilePath C:\temp\VSPCcert.pfx -Password $mypwd.Password
Import Certificate
