NAME

podman-machine-list - List virtual machines

SYNOPSIS

podman machine list [ options ]

podman machine ls [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

List Podman managed virtual machines.

Podman on MacOS and Windows requires a virtual machine. This is because containers are Linux - containers do not run on any other OS because containers’ 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.

Rootless only.

NOTE: The podman-machine configuration file is managed under the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/containers/podman/machine/ directory. Changing the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable while the machines are running can lead to unexpected behavior. (see podman(1))

OPTIONS

--all-providers

Show machines from all providers

--format=format

Change the default output format. This can be of a supported type like ’json’ or a Go template. Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

--help

Print usage statement.

--noheading, -n

Omit the table headings from the listing.

--quiet, -q

Only print the name of the machine. This also implies no table heading is printed.

EXAMPLES

List all Podman machines.

$ podman machine list
NAME VM TYPE CREATED LAST UP CPUS MEMORY DISK SIZE
podman-machine-default qemu 2 weeks ago 2 weeks ago 1 2.147GB 10.74GB

$ podman machine ls --format "table {{.Name}}\t{{.VMType}}\t{{.Created}}\t{{.LastUp}}"
NAME VM TYPE CREATED LAST UP
