Hi all,
All of the scientific computing department (which includes CA folks and
the T1 but not RALT2) will have an away day Wed/Thu next week (i.e., er,
an away two days), we will be unable to sign certificates or CRLs on
those days.
I have checked all certificates due to expire between noon on Tue 21 and
noon of Fri 24. There are 8 certificates, of which six have already
been renewed (and signed). The remaining two are a user at QMUL plus one
of STFC's own non-T1.
So no great worries on the renewals, mostly a slight risk imposed by the
inability to quickly issue a CRL. We could think of other ways of doing
it, either training someone outside the department, or bring the CA
online and control it remotely, but those actions carry their own risks.
Concerns, thoughts, or comments, please ask.
Thanks
