26.7. Configuring OCSP Responders
Every CA integrated with the IdM server uses an internal online certificate status protocol (OCSP) responder. The IdM service allowing to access the OCSP responders is available at
http://ca-server.example.com/ca/ocsp
. Clients can connect to this URL to check the validity of a certificate.
Note
For details on OCSP, see the Red Hat Certificate System documentation. For example, 2.2.4. Revoking Certificates and Checking Status in the Planning, Installation, and Deployment Guide.
26.7.1. Changing the CRL Update Interval
The CRL file is automatically generated by the IdM CA every four hours by default. To change this interval:
- Stop the CA server.
# systemctl stop pki-tomcatd@pki-tomcat.service
- Open the
/var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/conf/ca/CS.cfg
file, and change theca.crl.MasterCRL.autoUpdateInterval
value to the new interval setting. For example, to generate the CRL every 60 minutes:ca.crl.MasterCRL.autoUpdateInterval=60
- Start the CA server.
# systemctl start pki-tomcatd@pki-tomcat.service
