## Observation
The certificate for dashboard.qam.suse.de expired on 10/30/2024.
The problem was basically resolved when I started to investigate it. Most likely dehydrated did not restart nginx after renewing the certificate 2 weeks ago like we've seen before.

## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** An updated certificate is used by dashboard.qam.suse.de before the old one expires
## Suggestions
* This was not covered by any alerts but thanks to a user reporting it
* Apparently dashboard.qam.suse.de is not monitored on [SSL Certificate Alerts](https://stats.openqa-monitor.qa.suse.de/d/E9tyiQ17k/ssl-certificate-alerts) so far? Shouldn't it be?
* Investigate why nginx wasn't restarted
