Hi Mohammad,

the certificates issued by IPA CA are normally tracked by certmonger and 
automatically renewed when they are near their expiration date. To make 
sure that your certificates are tracked, you can issue
$ ipa-getcert list
and check the "status:" field for each certificate. It should display 
"MONITORING".

If you want to manually renew them, you must note their request ID and 
use the command
$ ipa-getcert resubmit -i $REQUEST_ID

Hope this helps,
Flo.
