[Pki-users] Deleting revoked certificates

[Christina Fu]

Oleg,

Are you talking about removing certificate records from the Dogtag 
internal directory server?

First of all, you are not supposed to remove unexpired revoked certs 
from the internal db as that's where CRL's are built.

However, if "old" means "expired" certificates, then I imagine you could 
use ldapmodify to do that.  You can probably write a script to do that 
as a cron job. You can "man ldapmodify" to see the documentation.

Now, if you are talking about removing expired certs from a publishing 
directory, there is a job called "UnpublishExpiredJob" that can be 
turned on to "unpublish"(remove) them from the publishing directory for 
you periodically:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Certificate_System/8.1/html/Admin_Guide/Setting_up_Specific_Jobs.html#Configuration_Parameters_of_unpublishExpiredCerts

Hope that answered your question.
Christina
