You should re-key your SSL certificate when:
- Your server crashes.
- You lose your private key.
- You move your website to a new server.
- You change your SSL's domain.
- You want to change your SSL certificate's issuing organization.
Required:
- Before you can re-key your SSL certificate, you must generate a new certificate signing request (CSR) from your Web server..
- Don't revoke unless you are certain you want to cancel the existing certificate. When you revoke, the SSL credit is canceled and you can't re-key the certificate.
- You need to download and install your new certificate within 72 hours of re-keying your certificate to keep your server secure when the old certificate is terminated.
- Go to your Heart Internet account.
- Select SSL Certificates and select Manage for the certificate you want to rekey.
- Select Rekey your certificate.
- In the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) field, paste your new CSR, including ----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST---- and ----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST----, and then select Add Change.
- Select Submit All Changes.
Your newly re-keyed certificate will become available shortly after submitting the new CSR, and we'll email you when the certificate is available.
