Certificates and Keys in an AADS Farm

Within an AADS Farm all the servers do exchange the SSL Certificates, such that any client can connect to any server in the Farm. On each server in the Farm you can see the "other" certificates from the "other" servers in the Farm.

Example:

Windows 7 Server

The AADS Farm is enabled:

Windows 7 Server is joined to the Domain:

Reboot...

Windows 10 Server

The AADS Farm is enabled:

Windows 10 Server is joined to the Domain:

Reboot...

 

After the Reboot of both Servers, both Servers will show the Certificates from the other Servers in the Farm.
The AADS Farm will automatically distribute all Certificates among the Farm.

 

When the Administrator generates a new Client Certificate on the Windows 7 Server,

 

automatically this new Client Certificate will also be distributed to the Windows 10 Server in the Farm:

 


Server in the Farm is Down...

When a Server in the Farm is down, the other Servers in the Farm will show the Certificates of this Server with a yellow highlight.

Example: the Windows 10 Server is down:

When the Windows 10 Server is running again, the other Servers in the Farm will show the Certificates of the Windows 10 Server in the usual way.

When the Windows 10 Server is down forever, it might be a good idea to delete both the Server and Clients Certificates of the Windows 10 Server


Deleting other Certificates

When a Server is not being used anymore, its Certificates should be deleted:

Please note: every server in the Farm has the Certificates of every other server in the Farm. When, for example, server Win7x64_70 is not being used anymore, its certificates needs to be deleted on every other server in the Farm...


Sorting and Searching

A right-mouse click on the column headers shows a popup menu with various "sort" options.

The Administrator can enter a "search" string, and do an "next" and "previous" search on this string.
