== About Pull Secrets
100+
While starting cluster configured with {openshift} or {ushift} preset {prod} would request you to provide a pull secret, it's required to pull some {ocp} specific container images.
101+
You need to download it from the Pull Secret section of the link:https://console.redhat.com/openshift/create/local[{prod} page on the {rh} Hybrid Cloud Console].
102+
103+
Once you provide this pull secret, it gets stored in Operating System's credential manager so that {prod} doesn't ask for pull secret again in case you delete existing cluster and create
104+
a new one.
105+
106+
Please note that this pull secret would only be removed from the Operating System's credential manager when user runs [command]`{bin} cleanup` command.
107+
108+
If you manually want to remove/update pull secret from your Operating System's credential manager configuration.
