You can get help with CLI commands and MicroShift resources in the following ways.

Use oc help --flag to get information about a specific CLI command:

Use the oc explain command to view the description and fields for a particular resource:

Example: View documentation for the Pod resource

$ oc explain pods

Example output

KIND:     Pod

DESCRIPTION:
     Pod is a collection of containers that can run on a host. This resource is
     created by clients and scheduled onto hosts.

FIELDS:

     APIVersion defines the versioned schema of this representation of an
     object. Servers should convert recognized schemas to the latest internal
