Running validation scans

By default, validation scans occur daily according to the daily task schedule configured on the Trust Protection Platform server object in the Platforms tree. However, you can also manually run a validation scan.

Trust Protection Platform runs a validation whenever a certificate is automatically renewed and installed. This is called SSL/TLS validation.

To run a manual validation scan

1. From the Aperture menu bar, click Inventory > Certificates.

2. Find the certificate that you want to validate.

3. Click the certificate's nickname.

4. On the certificate's details page, click Actions > Validate Now.

   When you click Validate Now, it triggers validation of the certificate and all of its installations.

   The Validation statuses change to In Process.

   The page automatically refreshes when the validation is complete.

5. To see more detailed validation results, switch to the SSL/TLS tab on the left.

To see what each validation result means, see Review validation results.
