I think you want to mention oc in this line. Maybe:
logrus.Infof("To access the cluster as the system:admin user when using 'oc', run 'export KUBECONFIG=%s'", kubeconfig)

Do we want this level of detail? If folks need to be reminded about --help, I'd much rather be linking them to external docs for using oc (or hope they say "huh, dunno what oc is. Ah, this next line is talking about a web console, that sounds like my style").

@wking, updated w/ the other 2 files, thanks |
The kubeadmin user should only be used to temporarily access the console, and only until an admin configures a proper Identity Provider. There is no reason to login as the kubeadmin user via CLI. If oauth is broken in a cluster, an admin can still access via CLI as system:admin, but will not be able to access via kube:admin.

This was added in 4033577 (Append router CA to cluster CA in kubeconfig, 2019-02-12, openshift#1242), where the motivation was [1]: With users created with an identity-provider, OAuth flow goes through router and router-ca is not trusted. This prohibits the user from using oc login from command line, without manually appending the router ca to the cluster ca. The openshift-ingress-operator creates the router-CA and this is not available until the very end of an install. This PR adds the router CA from configmap router-ca -n openshift-config-managed to the kubeconfig certificate-authority-data. This allows an identity-provided user to oc login from the terminal. But the admin kubeconfig is already authenticated, so folks shouldn't be using 'oc login' with that kubeconfig. For example, see dee6929 (Modify kubeadmin usage message, admins should not use kubeadmin via CLI, 2019-04-01, openshift#1513). That leaves us with no use case for this modification, and making the finish code watch-only sets us up to rename away from the user-provided-infrastructure subcommand. [1]: openshift#1242 (comment)
