+The **dehydrated-cron** script runs dehydrated once per day and on system reboot for an automatic certificate renewal.

+It uses the dehydrated '--keep-going' option to keep going after encountering an error while creating/renewing multiple certificates. Afterwards it also removes all unused certificates by using the dehydrated '--cleanup-delete' option.
