the process to update the SSL certificate needs to be better supported by the documentation

Customers (not just this one) have spent HOURS in VI editing the yaml file trying to get the cert to work. This will reduce customer frustration and improve the feeling towards our product.

Can add one line to this  

"Pay careful attention to the indent. ------BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- should be indented 12 characters - in line with the r in certificate."
