Office Communications Server Archiving Agent failed to initialize MSMQ encryption resources in orde

OCS_Archiving_Agent_30520_SE (Rule)

Office Communications Server Archiving Agent failed to initialize MSMQ encryption resources in order to encrypt messages sent to the Archiving Service. Because the Archiving Agent is currently configured for best-effort encryption, the Archiving Agent will send messages to the Archiving Service message queue without encryption.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

Causes

Initialization of MSMQ encryption can fail for several reasons including: MSMQ is not setup for Active Directory mode, computer is in workgroup mode, public key for the destination queue from Active Directory cannot be retrieved, MSMQ service is not available.

Resolutions

If you require encryption, you should re-configure the archiving agent to require encryption using the administrative snap-in and fix any of the relevant MSMQ encryption issues listed above.
