Rob and Jochen,
Thank you both for your speedy reply.
My IDM system seems to be working fine. I can issue certs. My concern is with the two
CS.cfg files, as I have no idea what they are for. I don't know if the csr blobs in
CS.cfg are necessary or if they need to be in sync with the cert blobs I manually updated.
After reading Jochen's notes, and my experience, I am guessing that the renewal master
updates the .../kra/conf/CS.cfg but not the kra CS.cfg files on the other replicas. I
am also guessing that my renewal server was a fresh install and it hit the bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1871188
So I am still wondering, what are the CS.cfg files for???? I
I would guess that they might be called when using ipa-cert-fix, but I am not skilled
enough to unpack what ipa-cert-fix does. If the CS.cfg files are full deprecated on a
Rhel 8.6 replicated IDM system, then I would like to know, so I can relax.
As for advancing the certmonger configuration, It appears that my certs should get renewed
in 7 days. As such, I will just wait for the 7 days and see if the renewal works. I have
no expectation that the kra CS.cfg file will get updated.
Thanks again for your replies.
Bob
