## NAME
|
|
podman\-rename - Rename an existing container
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**podman rename** *container* *newname*
|
|
|
|
**podman container rename** *container* *newname*
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
Rename changes the name of an existing container.
|
|
The old name is freed, and is available for use.
|
|
This command can be run on containers in any state.
|
|
However, running containers may not fully receive the effects until they are restarted - for example, a running container may still use the old name in its logs.
|
|
At present, only containers are supported; pods and volumes cannot be renamed.
