Broken link in JBoss EAP XP main docs ("Create an authentication token using a registry service account")

Details

    Description

      On following page: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_jboss_enterprise_application_platform/7.3/html/using_eclipse_microprofile_in_jboss_eap/using-the-openshift-image-for-jboss-eap-xp_default#configuring-authentication-to-the-red-hat-container-registry_default

      in section "5.2. Configuring authentication to the Red Hat Container Registry"

      are following links to additional resources:

      Create an authentication token using a registry service account
      Configuring access to secured registries
      Configuring authentication to the Red Hat Container Registry

      The first link is broken. It points to following URL: https://access.redhat.com/RegistryAuthentication#registry-service-accounts-for-shared-environments-4

      The page itself exists, but the anchor (#registry-service-accounts-for-shared-environments-4) in the page does not. In effect, the first and the third links take you to the same place.

      I suggest replacing the broken link with the link directly to the Registry Service Account management application (https://access.redhat.com/terms-based-registry/), which IIUC is ultimately the place where a user needs to go in order to generate token. This management application should even be linked directly in the instruction text above.

      For example:

      5.2. Configuring authentication to the Red Hat Container Registry

      ...

      Procedure

      1. Follow the instructions on Red Hat Customer Portal to create an authentication token using a Registry Service Account management application.

      2. Download the YAML file containing the OpenShift secret for the token.

      ...
