Renew SSL client cert without causing outage to VS

I'm not sure you're reading the SOL note correctly... The change doesn't usually cause an outage (YMMV there's been quite a few fixes in the past for TMM crashing when changing the cert on a profile)...

 

 

However it is generally regarded as safer to make changes of this sort during a maintenance (Or quiet) window.

 

 

Also, I'll use this opportunity to say that you should be using a NEW 2048b key pair for the CSR... Using a new key limits the damage if a key is compromised (e.g. old backup tapes, old HD's etc).
