What is the official, complete, NS8 cli command to manually renew the LE certificate

Support
1

NethServer Version: ns8
Module: Letsencrypt

I don’t want to create a new certificate.

The only option in the gui is to delete.

I don’t want to reboot the node.

I don’t want to modify the certificate.

I’m looking for the official Nethserver cli command to renew the cert at my convenience instead of having to wait on the cron.

Nothing is broken. Everything works fine. I simply want to manually renew the cert at my convenience.

Thank you.

p.s.

In July 2025 a similar question was asked in another thread and no one had an answer.

I have done several searches.

I have read hallucinatory “AI” responses that do not match with their claimed sources.

I do not see this in the documentation here; TLS certificates | NethServer 8 documentation

I will be more than happy to add the command there personally.

Again, Thank you in advance for not interrogating me as to why I want this.

In NS8, traefik cares about the certificates and renews them 30 days before the expiration date. It seems there’s no manual renew command. The only way is to delete the certificate so traefik will obtain a new one on service restart.
