To specify CRL details:
1.
Log in to the CMS window for the Certificate Manager (see “Logging In to the
CMS Window” on page 343).
2.
Select the Configuration tab.
3.
In the navigation tree, select Certificate Manager, and then in the right pane,
select the Revocation List tab.
4.
In the Update Frequency section, select the “Every time a certificate is revoked
or taken off-hold” option. This option enables the Certificate Manager to
generate the CRL every time it revokes a certificate.
Keep in mind that the Certificate Manager attempts to publish the CRL to the
configured Online Certificate Status Manager whenever the CRL is generated,
in this case, every time a certificate is revoked. Publishing a CRL can be time
consuming if the CRL is large. Configuring the Certificate Manager to publish
CRLs every time a certificate is revoked may engage the server for a
considerable amount of time.
