#152 On reconnect to the IPA server, the IPA client shall resync/refresh/renew cached credentials, keytabs, certs and other downloaded entities
Closed: Invalid None Opened 14 years ago by sgallagh.

On reconnect to the IPA server, the IPA client shall resync/refresh/renew cached credentials, keytabs, certs and other downloaded entities (policies and configuration information for applications). It is about cert refresh.


We need a smarter policy, we can't make all clients do a bulk refresh as soon as a server comes up or we may kill it with excess connections and load to satisfy all requests at the same time.

As we mentioned before this ticket is reduced in scope to tracking the certs.
The cert tracking utility should be smart to ask for certs at the right time.

I think the logic should probably be:
If currentTime - lastSuccessCheckTime >= configuredValue
If network status changed - Try to refresh certs
else go idle and try later

Moving back to Deferred.

We don't have any certificates that need tracking right now. All communications in the IPA backend are protected by GSSAPI/KRB5.
