podman-machine(1) General Commands Manual podman-machine(1) NAME podman-machine - Manage Podman's virtual machine SYNOPSIS podman machine subcommand DESCRIPTION podman machine is a set of subcommands that manage Podman's virtual ma- chine. Podman on MacOS and Windows requires a virtual machine. This is because containers are Linux - containers do not run on any other OS because con- tainers' core functionality are tied to the Linux kernel. Podman machine must be used to manage MacOS and Windows machines, but can be optionally used on Linux. All podman machine commands are rootless only. NOTE: The podman-machine configuration file is managed under the $XDG_CON- FIG_HOME/containers/podman/machine/ directory. Changing the $XDG_CON- FIG_HOME environment variable while the machines are running can lead to unexpected behavior. Podman machine behaviour can be modified via the [machine] section in the containers.conf(5) file.
