Description David Eads 2019-03-06 18:31:44 UTC
Changing a pull secret when it expires is a critical task for cluster maintenance.  My pull secret became invalid and there was no documentation available for how to change it.  Without a valid pull secret, upgrades don't work because new payloads cannot be retrieved.

Comment 1 Antonio Murdaca 2019-03-17 19:29:45 UTC
I'm unsure on where do we need to have such docs, is the github repository and an md file enough? (dumb question, I suspect we need official docs but not sure where to ask)

Comment 2 Antonio Murdaca 2019-03-25 12:04:01 UTC
In any case, changing the pullsecret for the cluster is done using the `coreos-pull-secret` secret from the namespace `kube-system`:

oc get -o yaml secrets coreos-pull-secret -n kube-system

The above will show the .dockerconfigjson pull secret, editing the object above will change the pull secrets to what provided and regenerate the related objects.
