I learnt all the joys of DCM in the last year when suddenly that job was
dumped on me and I could get no support from our certificate people who
don't know IBMi.

But our environment is probably not standard since I could not use DCM to
issue certs. What I had to do was use our in-house system for certificate
management and firstly generate a sort of certificate request providing DNS
and some cost center stuff. That then gave me a unique number which I then
went into DCM and created the CSR using that unique number as the OU.

Once I got the CSR generated I would go back to our in house system, enter
the CSR into some web page and the reference number and the system woul
then hopefully produce a signed cert which I could then import into IBMi
using DCM.

It was a challenging process to sort out eventually but getting back to the
OP's query, when the cert is about to expire (about 6 weeks before) our
in-house system sends out an email to warn us so DCM is not involved in
managing expirations.

Since we have to renew annually now I'd love to know this too.

Just wondering the best/easiest way to handle keeping CA certificates
renewed/current.

I thought in the old DCM there was a way to auto-renew, or at least click
a button to renew the CA?
