Sorry I missed this but thanks for an official way. I'll take a look at this. My only issue with this "official" method is how did you end up automating this with ansible since the cert will need to be replaced every 60-90 days. Do you use ansible coupled with and acme updater coupled with a jinja template along with some raw commands run locally to accomplish this?

In my case I use a systemd path unit watching the cert folder which triggers a service for the update:

cert-watcher.path

[Path]
PathModified=/path/to/your/certificates
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

cert-watcher.service

[Unit]
Description=cert watcher service
[Service]
Type=oneshot
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/saa/binaries
ExecStart=./saa -c ChangeBmcCfg --file bmc.xml
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

@bin101
Pretty slick way. I'll have to try this to see is things work. My only problem right now is I'm working on a MAC and the client tool is supported for linux/windows.

Just use it on your supermicro server?

FYI I use a letsencrypt cert for my BMC and recently switched to lego from certbot. lego by default asks for ec256 encrypted private keys which my BMC doesn't support and doesn't report as an error. After the BMC reset it just had the old cert.
