Log in to OpenShift® Container Platform from the current cpd-cli session. This command uses the same arguments as the oc login command.

Extended description

The login-to-ocp command is a prerequisite for any cpd-cli manage commands that issue commands to your Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

The login-to-ocp command sends the information that you provide to the oc CLI, which logs you in to your Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform cluster.
