To my knowledge, there isn't a great way to do this in Pulp currently, but I 
believe there is a workaround. If you set the user_cert_expiration parameter in 
the [security] session to a large number and restart all of your pulp related 
processes then the next time you use pulp-admin to acquire a cert you will get 
a long-standing cert that is kept at ~/.pulp/user-cert.pem. That cert kept in 
that location should be similar to what you are looking for. pulp-admin knows 
to look for it at ~/.pulp/user-cert.pem.

Hopefully this is helpful.
