podman-init(1) General Commands Manual podman-init(1) NAME podman-init - Initialize one or more containers SYNOPSIS podman init [options] container [container...] podman container init [options] container [container...] DESCRIPTION Initialize one or more containers. You may use container IDs or names as input. Initializing a container performs all tasks necessary for starting the container (mounting filesystems, creating an OCI spec, initializing the container network) but does not start the container. If a container is not initialized, the podman start and podman run commands initialize it auto- matically prior to starting it. This command is intended to be used for inspecting a container's filesystem or OCI spec prior to starting it. This can be used to inspect the container before it runs, or debug why a con- tainer is failing to run. OPTIONS --all, -a Initialize all containers. Containers that have already initialized (in- cluding containers that have been started and are running) are ignored. --latest, -l Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created con- tainer. Note: the last started container can be from other users of Podman on the host machine. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines) EXAMPLES Initialize specified container with a given ID. $ podman init 35480fc9d568 Initialize specified container with a given name. $ podman init test1 Initialize the latest container. (This option is not available with the re- mote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines) $ podman init --latest Initialize all containers. $ podman init --all 9d2629dda7b9d4ca35c1fc63fa56592a08b9d5ab988b4301fddf16b623f676cc a9b78bcac97e131236930e3fa0be576e95ab89c96a7cb6fb1c821b772db9f623 9db345273719c14bc254f90ef2df24779193b42d68b1364c0914ca6f76cf5e9c SEE ALSO podman(1), podman-start(1) HISTORY April 2019, Originally compiled by Matthew Heon mheon@redhat.com <mailto:mheon@redhat.com> podman-init(1)
