Hi,


We use the ACME protocol with Let's Encrypt to automatically and 
programmatically request and generate new server certificates for SSL in 
conjunction with an embedded Jetty 9 web server (the Jetty server is configured 
and started with our own code, not a file based configuration). We therefore 
generate a new KeyStore or can modify the existing KeyStore instance with the 
new certificate chain.



As such, every 85 days or so, we wish to programmatically either:



1.       Change the KeyStore in the SSL configuration for the HTTPS 
ServerConnector (in SSLContextFactory or alike) if it is possible during 
runtime (but the existing SSLContext must somehow be refreshed - all this must 
be done when the ServerConnector is stopped and we would like to keep it 
running),

2.       Restart the connector if it is possible after reconfiguration 
(avoiding potential stops in SSLServerSocket listener),

3.       Remove and stop the existing connector, create the new connector, add 
it to the server and start it (the connector),

4.       Use some kind of dynamic KeyManagerFactory?

5.       Subclass SSLContextFactory or something like that...



How should we go about doing it the best way?

Is it even possible to do this without temporarily stopping the SSLServerSocket?



Best regards,

Chris
