Hello Guys,

I have installed SCOM 2019 fresh and patched with UR2. Unfortunately after i tried to download Management packs from the catalog it's not working and also Updates and Recommendations is not working. I get the following error :

Operations Manager cannot connect to the Web Service
" The Microsoft Management Pack catalog Web Service cannot be contacted at this time. There is either a problem with your internet connection or the web service is offline."

my troubleshooting so far :

  1. I have tried starting the SCOM 2019 UR2 Console from another PC - my workstation- I see the Same issue.
  2. I have found old solution for SCOM 2012 to edit the SCOM Console config file and add the proxy option - It didn't work.
  3. I have tested opening web sites from browser and it works fine. Even the microsoft catalog website opens from IE.
  4. I Know that the company only allows TLS 1.2

IS TLS related to this issue ? How can I solve this problem ? Any suggestions ?

    The workaround is really not helpful because based on CIS and STIG Security Policies there is no access onto internet security components. So it is still not resolved.
