Add a troubleshooting section to the backup certificates page documenting a known race condition where a backup certificate can be deleted immediately after issuance.
DEE-3829
When Universal SSL is disabled and re-enabled in quick succession, certificate processing jobs are not guaranteed to run in submission order. This can cause a newly issued backup certificate to be deleted before it becomes active. The fix documents the issue and the workaround (wait between toggling, use Advanced Certificate Manager for uninterrupted coverage).
