Renewing Certificates for the Subsystems
Chapter

Managing CMS Keys and Certificates

The wizard also deletes the old certificate from the server’s certificate database and
adds the renewed certificate to the database, so that the server is able to use the
renewed certificate upon restart. This feature restricts you to set the value of the
notBefore
attribute of the renewed certificate to either the current time or any time
in the past, but not in the future.
If you set the validity period of the renewed certificate to begin on a future date
and time, the server fails to use the certificate for its intended purposes. If this
happens, you may either reinstall the old certificate (saved to the text file
mentioned above) or renew the certificate again with an appropriate validity
period.
Step 3. Install the Renewed Certificate
When you receive the renewed certificate from the CA, you must install it in the
token that contains the key pair for the certificate; this is the token you used to
generate the request in Step 2.
The Certificate Setup Wizard automates the process of installing certificates used
by the CMS managers. For instructions on using the wizard, see “Using the Wizard
to Install a Certificate or Certificate Chain” on page 471.
Step 4. Deploy the Renewed Certificate
Follow the instructions appropriate for the certificate you installed:
•
If you installed a renewed CA signing certificate for a Certificate Manager, see
section “Deploying Certificate Manager’s Renewed CA Signing Certificate” on
page 498.
•
If you installed a renewed signing certificate for a Registration Manager, see
section “Deploying Registration Manager’s Renewed Signing Certificate” on
page 498.
