Ok.. so both copies of the metadata have different certs in
<ds:Signature xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">
<ds:KeyInfo>
<ds:X509Data>
<ds:X509Certificate>
Both copies of the metadata have unique values in
<ds:KeyValue>
<ds:RSAKeyValue>
<ds:Modulus>
The certs show up a second time, later in the metadata
<md:SPSSODescriptor
protocolSupportEnumeration="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol">
<md:KeyDescriptor use="encryption">
<ds:KeyInfo xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">
<ds:X509Data>
<ds:X509Certificate>
My impression is that they're planning on rolling out a new signing cert as
part of their move to sha256.
...we still need to know if you were able to get SHA256 support
working in a way that allows you to have both certs available, so that
there’s
no outage incurred when we switch the encryption certificate on our
side to
SHA256...
