If you are using Microsoft CA solution, you should download either Windows 2008 or Windows 2012 MP.
Windows Server Active Directory Certificate Services(ADCS) 2008 MP

Windows Server Active Directory Certificate Services(ADCS) 2012 MP

What's the point to copy-paste what I wrote ... ?

And you do the same in this thread : https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/fr-FR/642e4147-e207-4078-b085-db89def9c6ac/scom-2012-data-storage-details-in-opeartionmanger-db-and-in-datawarehouse-db?forum=operationsmanagerdeployment

YEs I think I got that mp but i dont think it checks for expired certs. I would need the third party management pack for that. 

correct?

Yes, you're right.

Works really well in our scom environment.

how do you setup the alerting on expiring or expired certs?

I got the mp imported and installed. but looks like I will need additional configuration to setup alerting?

Thanks for your feedback, I'll try it soon i think :)

I setup the below subscription but did not see any emails. 

I checked both groups under authoring and I do see expiring and expired certs in there

The management packs for monitoring a CA itself are given.
And the PKI management pack by Raphael Burri will give you expiration of certidicates themselves.
The configuration needed for this management is included in the management pack guide which comes with the download zip file.

check the maangement pack guide for this one. It shows you exactly what to do. by default is gives alerts for a number of certificates in the personal computer store. Warning for expiring in the coming x days (I think it was 30 or 21 days) and a red alert if the certificate has expired already. Same for the situation where the certificate can not be verified or is not valid through its certificate chain.

hi

where do I enable the alert? I am looking under authoring and scoped to the Certificate store

I think it's better you ask your questions on the page related to this MP directly : http://www.systemcentercentral.com/pack-catalog/pki-certificate-verification-mp/

after you read the management pack guide on which exact monitor you can enable or change settings on....
You should drill down deeper into that view until you reach the monitors themselves. And adjust settings on those if needed.
