NAME
podman - Simple management tool for containers and images
SYNOPSIS
podman [options] COMMAND
DESCRIPTION
podman is a simple client only tool to help with debugging issues when daemons such as CRI runtime and the kubelet are not responding or failing. A shared API layer could be created to share code between the daemon and podman. podman does not require any daemon running. podman utilizes the same underlying components that crio uses i.e. containers/image, container/storage, oci-runtime-tool/generate, runc or any other OCI compatible runtime. podman shares state with crio and so has the capability to debug pods/images created by crio.
podman [GLOBAL OPTIONS]
GLOBAL OPTIONS
--help, -h Print usage statement
--config value, -c="config.file" Path of a config file detailing container server configuration options
--cpu-profile Path to where the cpu performance results should be written
--log-level log messages above specified level: debug, info, warn, error (default), fatal or panic
--root=value Path to the root directory in which data, including images, is stored
--runroot=value Path to the 'run directory' where all state information is stored
--runtime=value Path to the OCI compatible binary used to run containers
--storage-driver, -s=value Select which storage driver is used to manage storage of images and containers (default is overlay)
--storage-opt=value Used to pass an option to the storage driver
--version, -v Print the version
