The Certificate Management window displays the certificates for the selected computer, while the Certificate Repository displays all the certificates you added. The heading at the top of the display enumerates the total valid, expiring soon, expired, deleted, and broken certificates. The state of each certificate is indicated by an icon so you can easily see the status of the certificates.
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, which replaces the certificate stored in Active Administrator with the broken certificate. See Managing broken certificates.
The displayed certificates are a reflection of the contents of the Active Administrator® database. The display updates automatically based on the synchronization schedule set in certificate configuration. See Setting certificate configuration.

NOTE: If Certificate Protection is enabled (see Configuring certificate protection), the database and display are not refreshed, but the certificates on the computer are checked against the database for differences. If broken certificates are found, email notifications are sent. If auto-repair is enabled, broken certificates are repaired automatically (see Managing broken certificates). |
