What to do next
You can use the @Certificate function to create a custom
view of specific IDs for recertification based on the ID name, issuer
of the certificate, and expiration date. If you create a custom view,
be sure to include the Recertify Servers or an equivalent action in
the Actions menu of the view. For more information on the @Certificate
function, see IBM®
