Issue/Introduction

Is it safe to delete an expired certificate?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA Top Secret for z/OS

Resolution

Yes because expired certificates are no longer useable once expired, so deleting them will have no consequences. 

If an r_datalib security call is made for a certificate that is expired, a not found condition will be passed back for the certificate even though it really exists on the security file.
