from http://www.freeipa.org/page/Certmonger:

The expiration date is UTC. By default certmonger will start trying to
renew the certificate 28 days before it expires.

| Or is there a way to manually renew those certs?

http://www.freeipa.org/page/Certmonger#Manually_renew_a_certificate

Manually renew a certificate

If you want to manually renew a certificate prior to its expiration date, run:

# ipa-getcert resubmit -i REQUEST_ID

so I will just wait 2 days and see if it has automatically renewed;
otherwise renew it.

I must say that certmonger is an awesome piece of work.
