Unlike [
podman system connection default] this option will also make the
API socket, if available, forward to the rootful/rootless socket in the VM.
To switch the default VM
podman-machine-default from rootless to rootful:
$ podman machine set --rootful
or more explicitly:
$ podman machine set --rootful=true
To switch the default VM
podman-machine-default from rootful to rootless:
$ podman machine set --rootful=false
To switch the VM
myvm from rootless to rootful:
