Description

Hi there,

We’ve been using a cron’d letsencrypt/certbot script for the last few years and are preparing to move to resty-auto-ssl. We currently have about 1200 certs from our previous implementation. I’m a little nervous about switching to auto-ssl in our production environment given that it can take 2-3 seconds for auto-ssl to provision the cert. My concern is that requests will queue and nginx will crash (we get about 1000 requests per minute).

So my question is if it’s possible to manually “migrate” the existing certs into auto-ssl. We’ll be using the redis store. Would that work and prevent the initial provisioning time for the existing ones?

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thank you!

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the Redis-store migration behavior and the certificate provisioning path, then confirm whether existing Certbot certificates can be imported without triggering initial provisioning; done means an agreed migration procedure is documented and validated for the stated request volume.
