Description

This is in the current man page:
OPTIONS
The following options are relevant for the server:
cert_expiration_days 28
The number of days left before a certificate expires to start
displaying a warning.
It is currently the only user configuration.
Or are you looking for something else?
You are looking in the wrong man page. man 5 ipahealthcheck.conf Rob, Thanks, man 5 ipahealthcheck.conf does show the options. However i do have some queries, the man pages says 1. Valid lines consist of an option name, an equals sign and a value - When we check the option i.e cert_expiration_days 28 it isn't mentioned in the above format. - Also where should this option be specified default/global section? 2. Options must appear in the section named [global]. There are no other sections defined or used currently - However i do see the [default] section in the /etc/ipahealthcheck/ipahealthcheck.conf. - default/global section do we support both right now? 1. The option is just bad formatting in the man page. I'll move the 28 elsewhere and indicate it's the default 2. global is incorrect, the section should be default.
