pki_healthcheck.conf(5)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, this is pki_healthcheck.conf(5) from the PKI Healthcheck Configuration manual — section 5, we're in our config-file era 💅. It's literally the PKI Healthcheck configuration file.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The healthcheck.conf configuration file is used to set the defaults when running the pki-healthcheck tool. That's the whole vibe: defaults live here. ✨

✨ SYNTAX ✨

okay so, syntax rules, bestie:

• The configuration options are not case sensitive. The values may be case sensitive, depending on the option — so don't just assume, iykyk.
• Blank lines are ignored, periodt.
• Lines beginning with # are comments and are ignored.
• Valid lines consist of an option name, an equals sign =, and a value. Spaces surrounding the equals sign are ignored. An option terminates at the end of a line.
• Values should not be quoted. The quotes will not be stripped.

🚨 do NOT put quotes around values, bestie — they will not be magically stripped. it's giving "why is my value broken" energy 😭

# Wrong - don't include quotes
verbose = "True"

# Right - Properly formatted options
verbose = True
verbose=True

• Options must appear in the section named [default] or [dogtag]. There are no other sections defined or used currently.
• Options may be defined that are not used. Be careful of misspellings — they will not be rejected. 👀

💅 OPTIONS 💅

The following options are relevant for the healthcheck tool:

• cert_expiration_days — the number of days left before a certificate expires to start displaying a warning. The default is 28.
• instance_name — the name of the PKI instance. The default is pki-tomcat.

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

[default]
cert_expiration_days = 30

[dogtag]
instance_name = pki-tomcat
