Certificate renewal - Removing old Domains/SANs?

0

Hi all,

We just got the automated email from AWS saying that one of our certificates expires next month and is stuck on PENDING VALIDATION status. The reason being is that several of the additional domains are no longer in use, but they were in use 1 year ago when we created the certificate.

Is it possible to remove these unused domains from the certificate renewal process? ChatGPT said I need to create a new certificate, minus the missing domains.

Regards,

John

Hello John,

As of Now Unfortunately, there's no direct way to remove domains from an existing AWS certificate.

The only method is to:

  • Create a new certificate with the domains you need.
  • Replace the old certificate with the new one in your services.

Create a New Certificate:

  • Identify Active Domains: Make a comprehensive list of all domains you currently use that require SSL/TLS protection.
  • Request a New Certificate: Use the AWS Management Console or the AWS CLI to request a new certificate, including only the active domains in the Subject Alternative Names (SANs) list.
  • Validate Domain Ownership: Follow the validation process as instructed by AWS. This typically involves adding specific DNS records or email verification.
  • Replace Old Certificate: Once the new certificate is issued and validated, replace the old certificate with the new one in your application or service configurations.
