Description Steven Walter 2018-11-08 19:41:44 UTC
Document URL: 
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/install_config/configuring_authentication.html#identity-providers-configuring

Section Number and Name: 
Configuring identity providers

Describe the issue: 
"OpenShift Container Platform supports configuring only a single identity provider"
This is contradicted by:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3232841
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2191901
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1302212


Suggestions for improvement: 
We can clarify this sentence to remove this false statement OR if this statement is intended to indicate something else, we should specify that instead (I'm not sure what else it would be trying to say, though)

Comment 1 gcardill 2019-07-23 12:35:22 UTC
Since afterwards the doc is  mentioning the LDAP failover, I think the actual sentence should be something like:
"Openshift does not support configuring multiple LDAP servers for the same identity provider."
