Is application restart mandatory after SSL cert update?

[IDAM09]

Hi, We recently updated a SSL certificate. The documentation says we have to restart after updating the certificate, but the connection is successful without restart.

Trying to understand if a restart is still required or not.

Hi @IDAM09 , any challenge doing a restart? 

Restart EIC to view the certificate in the SSL Certificate drop-down list and in the Certificate Management page.

To use the certificate management capability , the doc says restart is needed.

Thanks,

Amit

Hi @AmitM No issues with viewing the updated certificate in the Certificate Management page. Its reflecting the updates (the new expiry date is updated) corerctly.

Just need to know if we still need to restart for the ceritificate to get updated in trust store or are good just by verifying the certificate update in the  Certificate Management page.

Restarting server is mandatory. Certificate management shows data from database table. When new certificates is loaded its getting added in keystore which needs restart
