Renewing the Cloudera Data Engineering certificate

Learn about how to renew the Cloudera Data Engineering certificate when the certificate is about to expire.

  1. Open the Cloudera Data Engineering UI and edit the URI to open the Swagger UI.
    Example: Edit the Cloudera Data Engineering landing page console URL https://console.us-west-1.cdp.cloudera.com/dex/home to the following URL to open the Swagger UI: https://console.us-west-1.cdp.cloudera.com/dex/swagger/index.html#/Cluster/patch-cluster
  2. In the Swagger UI, provide the Cluster-ID for the affected Cloudera Data Engineering Service, and for the Data section, pass only the following tag and remove additional fields.
    { "status_update": "renewTLSCerts" }

    After running the command, the Cloudera Data Engineering Service Log shows that the TLS CertRenewal is triggered and completed with NewExpiryDate, and NextRenewalAttempt is set to 15 days before the expiry.

  3. In the Dex-Base-xxxxxx namespace, restart the dex-base-NGinx-Controller-xxxxx pod.
