You shouldn't be using certs that change on a constant basis for SAML. The
idp-metadata.xml file isn't relevant anyway. You would need to deal with
any federation(s) to whom you supply metadata. You can't do that by
changing a local setting. That's yet another reason why it shouldn't be
done often.
