Delete and restore a certificate management policy
To perform this action, you must have a user role that contains the Solution administrator permission.
If a certificate management policy is no longer needed, you can delete it. Deleting a certificate management policy removes it from forms requiring a certificate management policy, such as requesting a certificate. It also removes it from the list of Active profiles on the a Certificate management policies section.
Important
When you delete a certificate management policy, you delete only the policy and do not affect certificate requests or renewals that rely on it. The system warns you about associated device groups before deletion but does not prevent deletion.
You must keep the policy active to create registered values. You can also restore the policy.
In the Device Trust Manager menu, go to Certificate management > Certificate settings > Certificate management policies.
Select the certificate management policy you want to delete.
Click More actions > Delete.
In the Delete Certificate management policy confirmation dialog, click Delete Certificate management policy.
When you return to the Certificate management policies section, the policy no longer appears in the list of Active policies. The policy will no longer appear on forms where a certificate management policy is required.
If you end up needing to use a deleted certificate management policy again, you can restore it. After restoring a certificate management policy, it will appear on forms requiring a certificate management policy, such as requesting a certificate. It also reappears in the list of Active policies section on the Certificate management policies section.
In the Device Trust Manager menu, go to Certificate management > Certificate settings > Certificate management policies.
Select the filter icon in the Status column of the certificate management policies table.
Select Deleted from the dropdown list.
All the deleted certificate management policies are listed.
Select the certificate management policy you want to restore, select More actions > Restore.
When you return to the Certificate management policies section, the policy is now Active and appears in the list of certificate management policies. The policy will now appear on forms where a certificate management policy is required.
