The metadata_refresh_hook() function in htdocs/auth/saml/lib.php does
the following

1) sets a metarefresh-state.php file containing info about the idp
metadata state

2) get a list of local $sets and finds the external metadata information
about them and saves that down to dataroot/metadata/refresh/ directory

It should save files called shib13-idp-remote and saml20-idp-remote but
if no info available it deletes the old file and not save any new ones

Title:
  Check metadata refresh and timings when switching from old to new file

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The metadata refresh URL for SAML catches updates to the metadata.
  However, when an entirely new metadata file is put in place, the old
  file may not be kept long enough for the transition to take place.

  This needs further investigation to see if we need to make any
  changes. Robert L has the info.
