12.6. Using Multiple OpenShift Configuration Files

The OpenShift Enterprise interactive setup wizard creates a new express.conf configuration file in the ~/.openshift directory with the specified user and server settings. Multiple configuration files can be created, but you must then use the --config option with the client tools to select the appropriate configuration file.

Procedure 12.2. To Create a New Configuration File:

  1. Run rhc setup with the --config command to create a new configuration file: 
    # rhc setup --config=~/.openshift/bob.conf
  2. Verify that you can connect to OpenShift using different configuration files. Run an rhc command without specifying the configuration file. In this example, the domain for the account configured in the express.conf file is displayed. 
    # rhc domain show
  3. Run the rhc command with --config option. In this example, the domain for the account configured in the bob.conf file is displayed. 
    # rhc domain show --config=~/.openshift/bob.conf
