Configuration Has Expired Certificates Warning

Microsoft.ActiveDirectoryFederationServices2012R2.FederationServerConfigurationHasExpiredCertsWarningMonitor (UnitMonitor)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This monitor indicates that one or more certificates in the AD FS configuration database are expired or will expire soon and they must be updated manually. If AD FS detects that there is no expired certificate or that a certificate will not expire soon, the monitor will change to a Green state and the original critical alert will be resolved automatically.

Causes

This event occurs because one or more certificates are expired, or will expire soon.

Resolutions

If certificate rollover is enabled, this issue resolves on its own. In other cases, refer to the thumbprint or other certificate-identifying data in the additional details section of the event itself. After you identify the certificate that caused this event to occur, manually update the certificate to correct the problem.
