If you are like me and love deploying systems from an image, you have may have experienced a problem when having the Operations Manager agent installed on the image, and after deployment and a rename of the server, you end up with event id’s 1220 and 7022 in your Operations Manager event log every 30 minutes.

The reason for this issue is the Operations Manager certificate for this computer still has the original image build’s server name on it.

To fix this:

1. Stop the Operations Manger Health Service
2. Open up an MMC and openthe certificates snap-in for “Local Computer”
3. Navigate to Certificates -> Operations Manager -> Certificates
4. and delete the certificate with the original build’s name
5. Restart the Operations Manager Health Service.

This fix may not be the best way to solve this issue, but I have not done a thorough web search for better solutions yet.  If no one else has this documented somewhere, the steps could easily be scripted, and if I don’t find a better solution I will post the eventual script for this once I have it done.
