Short description in man pages: * Use imperative form Command help (cobra.Command.Short): * Capitalize first letter * Use imperative form * Remove ending full stop when the short description only contains one sentence without any commas Command help (cobra.Command.Long): * Capitalize first letter unless the sentence starts with a command "podman command ..." * Use imperative form when the long description is identical or almost identical to the short description. This modification was only done in a few places. Command tables: * Use imperative form in the "Description" column [NO NEW TESTS NEEDED] Signed-off-by: Erik Sjölund <erik.sjolund@gmail.com>

## NAME
|
|
podman\-container\-clone - Create a copy of an existing container
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**podman container clone** [*options*] *container* *name* *image*
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
**podman container clone** creates a copy of a container, recreating the original with an identical configuration. This command takes three arguments: the first being the container ID or name to clone, the second argument in this command can change the name of the clone from the default of $ORIGINAL_NAME-clone, and the third is a new image to use in the cloned container.

|
|
## OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
@@option blkio-weight
|
|
|
|
@@option blkio-weight-device
|
|
|
|
@@option cpu-period
|
|
|
|
If none is specified, the original container's cpu period is used
|
|
|
|
@@option cpu-quota
|
|
|
|
If none is specified, the original container's CPU quota are used.
|
|
|
|
@@option cpu-rt-period
|
|
|
|
If none is specified, the original container's CPU runtime period is used.
|
|
|
|
@@option cpu-rt-runtime
|
|
|
|
@@option cpu-shares
|
|
|
|
If none are specified, the original container's CPU shares are used.
|
|
|
|
#### **--cpus**
|
|
|
|
Set a number of CPUs for the container that overrides the original containers CPU limits. If none are specified, the original container's Nano CPUs are used.
|
|
|
|
This is shorthand
|
|
for **--cpu-period** and **--cpu-quota**, so only **--cpus** or either both the **--cpu-period** and **--cpu-quota** options can be set.
|
|
|
|
This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.
|
|
|
|
@@option cpuset-cpus
|
|
|
|
If none are specified, the original container's CPUset is used.
|
|
|
|
@@option cpuset-mems
|
|
|
|
If none are specified, the original container's CPU memory nodes are used.
|
|
|
|
@@option destroy
|
|
|
|
@@option device-read-bps
|
|
|
|
@@option device-write-bps
|
|
|
|
#### **--force**, **-f**
|
|
|
|
Force removal of the original container that we are cloning. Can only be used in conjunction with **--destroy**.
|
|
|
|
@@option memory
|
|
|
|
If no memory limits are specified, the original container's memory limits are used.
|
|
|
|
@@option memory-reservation
|
|
|
|
If unspecified, memory reservation is the same as memory limit from the
|
|
container being cloned.
|
|
|
|
@@option memory-swap
|
|
|
|
If unspecified, the container being cloned is used to derive
|
|
the swap value.
|
|
|
|
@@option memory-swappiness
|
|
|
|
#### **--name**
|
|
|
|
Set a custom name for the cloned container. The default if not specified is of the syntax: **\<ORIGINAL_NAME\>-clone**
|
|
|
|
#### **--pod**=*name*
|
|
|
|
Clone the container in an existing pod. It is helpful to move a container to an
|
|
existing pod. The container joins the pod shared namespaces, losing its configuration
|
|
that conflicts with the shared namespaces.
|
|
|
|
#### **--run**
|
|
|
|
When set to true, this flag runs the newly created container after the
|
|
clone process has completed, this specifies a detached running mode.
|
|
|
