podman-machine-list - List virtual machines
podman machine list [
options]
podman machine ls [
options]
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))
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:
