I was careless and requested a brand new APN certificate instead of renewing my existing on on my JSS. Can anyone tell me what real life implications this will have? We do not have a ton of clients managed via config profiles but there are enough that I am concerned about what issues may occur.

Any iOS devices using the previous cert are no longer going to communicate with your jss.
If at all possible you definitely want to renew and upload your other cert.
Otherwise all iOS devices will require re-enrollment.

Part of my issue is I deleted the old cert from the Apple portal. That was mistake #2.

Thanks for the info.

Good news. Support reached out to me and told me of a jamf binary command: jamf -mdm. It will remove and re-neroll the client with the new cert.

Hope this helps someone else in this situation.
