Hi,

I am not getting the log entry for the next refresh of the metadata. We are just 
now looking into adding the minRefreshDelay and maxRefreshDelay after upgrading 
to 2.3.5 a couple of months ago.  Can I get a sanity check here please?

     <MetadataProvider xmlns="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:metadata"
         id="ICMD" xsi:type="FileBackedHTTPMetadataProvider"
 
metadataURL="http://wayf.incommonfederation.org/InCommon/InCommon-metadata.xml"
         backingFile="/etc/shibboleth-idp/metadata/InCommon-metadata.xml"
         minRefreshDelay="PT10M" maxRefreshDelay="PT20M">
         <MetadataFilter xsi:type="ChainingFilter">
             <!-- Require metadata expiration at least monthly (28 days) -->
             <MetadataFilter xsi:type="RequiredValidUntil" 
maxValidityInterval="P28DT0H0M0.000S" />
             <MetadataFilter xsi:type="SignatureValidation"
                 trustEngineRef="ICTrust" requireSignedMetadata="true" />
             <MetadataFilter xsi:type="EntityRoleWhiteList">
                 <RetainedRole>samlmd:SPSSODescriptor</RetainedRole>
             </MetadataFilter>
         </MetadataFilter>
     </MetadataProvider>

Does a metadata file need to be updated/edited before a refresh is scheduled? I 
was assuming that these values would cause it to refresh within 10-20 minutes no 
matter what.

Thanks,
-Kevin
