It's relatively easy to renew a required cert. It is much more difficult to get a replacement cert for one that has already expired, and then attach that cert to the various services that require it

Yes, but, I really need to avoid getting those warnings. First of all, I do not want to have those records created on daily basis for the next 30 days. Also, that domain is scheduled to go by itself. So, the situation is controlled and we do not need to be reminded about it. Also, the process of renewal, handling those certificates is highly detailed and managed by other mechanisms. So, basically, I wouldn't rely on that for knowing what to do. :)

But, thanks for the info
