Short-term-certificate rotation
Short-term certificates that are expired or close to their expiration dates must be rotated to ensure continued MicroShift operation.
The following situations describe MicroShift actions during short-term-certificate lifetime:
- No rotation
-
When a short-term certificate is up to 5 months old, no rotation occurs.
- Rotation at restart
-
When a short-term certificate is 5 to 8 months old, it is rotated when MicroShift starts or restarts.
- Automatic restart for rotation
-
When a short-term certificate is more than 8 months old, MicroShift can automatically restart to rotate and apply a new certificate.
