25.7. Making certmonger resume tracking of IdM certificates on a CA replica
You can make certmonger resume the tracking of Identity Management (IdM) system certificates that are crucial for an IdM deployment with an integrated certificate authority after the tracking of certificates was interrupted. The interruption may have been caused by the IdM host being unenrolled from IdM during the renewal of the system certificates or by replication topology not working properly. The procedure also shows how to make certmonger resume the tracking of the IdM service certificates, namely the HTTP, LDAP and PKINIT certificates.
Prerequisites
- The host on which you want to resume tracking system certificates is an IdM server that is also an IdM certificate authority (CA) but not the IdM CA renewal server.
Procedure
Get the PIN for the subsystem CA certificates:
# export NSSDB_PIN=$(sed -n 's/^internal=//p' /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/conf/password.conf)Add tracking for the
