EXCERPTS FROM THE FIXED MAN PAGE...
rhsmcertd [--cert-interval=MINUTES] [--heal-interval=MINUTES]
[--now] [--debug] [--help]
-c, --cert-interval=MINUTES
Resets the interval for checking for new subscription cer-
tificates. This value is in minutes. The default is 240, or
four hours. This interval is in effect until the daemon
restarts, and then the values in the /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
file are used (unless the argument is passed again).
-i, --heal-interval=MINUTES
Resets the interval for checking for and replacing expired
subscriptions. This value is in minutes. The default is
1440, or 24 hours. This interval is in effect until the
daemon restarts, and then the values in the
/etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf file are used (unless the argument is
passed again).
^^^ VERIFIED: The interval units and default values have been correctly documented.
