Spotfire Server certificate expires every 12 months - how can I make sure it is renewed?
The Spotfire Server and Node Manager trust certificates are valid for 12 months. Unlike Node Manager Certificate there is no work around to manually renew Spotfire Server trust certificate at a desired time. The server checks the expiration during startup and creates a new certificate if the current one will expire within 3 months. If server has not been restarted within past 3 months and the certificate expired communication problems could be encountered.
To check expiration dates for the certificates run the command "config list-certificates -v":
1. Open a command prompt and cd into the "bin" folder of the Spotfire server. "<server install dir>\tomcat\bin"(default C:\tibco\tss\x.x.x\tomcat\bin).
2. In the command prompt run this command without the quotes "config list-certificates -v".
Sample output:
?C:\tibco\tss\7.11.1\tomcat\bin>config list-certificates -v Tool password: * Valid certificates: Subject: 'cn=TIBCO Spotfire Signing CA,o=Spotfire' Serial number: 45799d42a38802f8f52a9e753c650b6d7192dfaa Issued for node: unknown Expiration date: 2028-09-27 15:17:02 CEST Subject: 'cn=9891536a-e2a2-4343-a576-cd406e2158a6,o=Spotfire' Serial number: 6863d9231098a2aa2b720f7f806b593cfb685ae7 Issued for node: 9891536a-e2a2-4343-a576-cd406e2158a6 Expiration date: 2019-09-27 14:22:31 CEST Subject: 'cn=29b12e0d-b825-4e77-a4a4-cd73deeaf5ad,o=Spotfire' Serial number: b3adc9c241b00a6b6b2d06da38cdb9d2a922dbaa Issued for node: 29b12e0d-b825-4e77-a4a4-cd73deeaf5ad Expiration date: 2019-09-27 14:17:02 CEST Subject: 'cn=TIBCO Spotfire Root CA,o=Spotfire' Serial number: b4ed6837baa071f21e45fbafbd5e0f11c6ebb37a Issued for node: unknown Expiration date: 2028-09-27 15:17:01 CESTRestart Spotfire Server at least once every three months and the server trust certificate will be renewed.
