Select "Skip certificates already marked as updated" to ignore certificates in
3.
the internal database that are maked as having been published already (or
removed in the case of revoked certificates).
For example, if you updated the directory once to revoke many certificates and
it took several minutes, some new certificates may have been issued while the
update was running. You would then use this selection and update the
directory a second time to publish the new certificates (and save time by
skipping all of the certificates that were just updated).
To publish the latest CRL, select "Update certificate revocation list to the
4.
directory."
To update information on valid certificates to the directory, select "Update
5.
valid certificates to the directory."
If you want to update only a range of certificates (for example, only the most
recently issued certificates), specify the range of the serial numbers of those
certificates.
To remove expired certificates from the directory, select "Remove expired
6.
certificates from the directory."
If you want to remove only a range of certificates (not all expired certificates),
specify the range of the serial numbers of those certificates.
To remove revoked certificates from the directory, select "Remove revoked
7.
certificates from the directory."
If you want to remove only a range of certificates (not all revoked certificates),
specify the range of the serial numbers of those certificates.
When you have finished specifying the changes that you want updated, click
8.
Update Directory.
In some circumstances, updating the directory can take
NOTE
considerable time. During this period, any changes made through
Certificate Management System (for example, any new certificates
issued or any certificates revoked) may not be included in the
update. If you have issued or revoked any certificates during that
time, you need to update the directory again to reflect those
changes. Use "Skip certificates already marked as updated" the
second time to update only certificates that changed (issued,
revoked, expired) while the previous update was running.
