Failed to receive CEM certificates from https://<FQDN_Name_of_Server>:443/altiris/NS/Agent/GetClientCertificate.aspx in CEM mode, error: The data is invalid (0x8007000D)

Environment

ITMS 8.x

Cause

The communication profile had two certificates with the FQDN name of of the server.  However,  the thumbprints on both of these did not match the thumbprint of the certifcate that was bound in IIS on the SMP Default and Symantec agent website.   

Resolution

1.  Exported the certificate from the default site and imported it into the communication profile. 

2.  Created a new CEM package and installed it on the client.
