Now that sounds like a long time, and indeed it is a long time, but then I look at the support lifetime of RHEL... Hopefully bare metal hardware won't last for the whole 10 years without being replaced, but with nested virt the "hosts" could be VMs that get moved to new hardware. So what's the story if a host hits the 10 year mark for the swtpm certs ? Presumably swtpm is validating these dates and will refuse to launch the TPM for the VMs on the host ?
