Today, it happens - osirismd was installed 1 year ago sharp, so it's certificate (which was generated with 1 year expiration) expired. Result is esy to predict - system halted totally.

(If generating such certificates, set up 100 years expiration time by default or make any way to auto-distribute them. Else, no any chance to make it all work normally. The worst thing is that it happen when everything is in production mode, and when there is a chance, that no people installed it are here. The risk of having unlimited expiration time is (in enterprise envirement) misarable, and it is always possible to configure certificate generation manually. Anyway, defaults should not cause system halrting in 1 year after installation.)
