Because our vuln scanner catches that the SSL cert has been hashed by an 
insecure algorithm (SHA1).

So we would need to update the shared cert...

The question is, why you'd want to re-generate new SSL certificate(s) after the 
upgrade. Cannot you continue using the existing one(s)?

RHN-ORG-TRUSTED-SSL-CERT is actually the SSL certificate, so my answer is yes, 
after you refresh the SSL certificate, you need to distribute it to all your 
clients to use SSL communication.
