If you google for "replacing IDP cert incommon" you will get some hits to useful documentation but those sites are currently unavailable. As I understand it though, that certificate expiration date is entirely advisory, nothing should break or change when that self-signed certificate expires. The expiration date is merely advising that you should periodically replace the certificate.

Subject: Expiring IDP signing certificate


Hi,



  Our IDP signing certificate as used in shibboleth.DefaultSigningCredential is expiring.  It is the 10-year self-signed certificate as recommended during installation.  What is the process to update/rollover this cert with minimal impact to SPs?



Thanks,

-PQ
