I don't know how Max implements this for DBM files but the DBI module only knows the certificate status VALID. The DBI module checks every certificate on the fly before it sets the state to VALID or EXPIRED. This is fully transparent for the user. If a user asks for one or more expired certificates then the database searchs internally for VALID certificates with a notafter smaller then now. So the DBI module does not need a cronjob and is always up-to-date.
