The Certificate Management window displays the certificates for the selected computer. The heading at the top of the display enumerates the total valid, soon to expire, expired, deleted, and broken certificates. The state of each certificate is indicated by an icon.
Broken certificates also display in a pane at the bottom of the screen. You can attempt to repair the broken certificate or override the broken certificate notification, which replaces the certificate stored in Active Administrator with the broken certificate. See Managing broken certificates.

To view certificates on a computer, you must add the computer. When you first add a computer, it is synced when you choose to display the certificates. Only those computers that are managed by the Certificate module are monitored for certificates. Managed computers are monitored based on the schedule set on the Certificate Configuration page (see Setting certificate configuration). You can turn off the dynamic monitoring of managed computers and sync them manually.
