B.3. Tracking Certificates with certmonger
certmonger
can manage the entire certificate lifecycle. Along with generating requests, certmonger
can track a certificate and automatically renew it when it expires at the end of its validity period.
This is done using the
start-tracking
command with the getcert
command. The -I
option creates the tracking entry, along with pointers to the key and certificate files, either in an NSS database (-d
and -n
) or in the PEM file (-f
and -k
). The -r
option tells certmonger
to renew the certificate.
# ipa-getcert start-tracking -I cert1-tracker -d /export/alias -n ServerCert -r
Note
The
-r
option can be passed with the request
command, in Example B.1, “Using certmonger for a Service”. In that case, the requested certificate is automatically tracked and renewed by certmonger
. Then, it is not necessary to configure tracking manually.
A certificate can be untracked by
certmonger
by using the stop-tracking
command.
