I have to install an SSL certificate on the main server.

In principle this should cause an outage of maybe a couple of seconds as the web server restarts.

Experience tells me though that the longer the uptime, the more likely a complete system reboot is liable to be needed which would take a few minutes.

Currently the web server has been live for 32 days, which is quite a while! So I think a reboot is a distinct possibility

Ah that was good Not even a server restart required.

It remains to be seen if what I was doing worked, but it is not likely to effect myfreeforum now.
