podman-machine-os-apply - Man Page
Apply an OCI image to a Podman Machine's OS
Synopsis
podman machine os apply [options] image [vm]
Description
Apply machine OS changes from an OCI image.
VM's that use OS's that use rpm-ostreee have the capability to rebase itself from the content of an OCI image. podman machine image apply takes an OCI image with container native ostree functionality and rebases itself on that image.
By default, Podman machines on Mac and Linux use an rpm-ostree based distribution (Fedora CoreOS).
For more information, see the rpm-ostree documentation.
The default machine name is podman-machine-default. If a machine name is not specified as an argument, then the OS changes will be applied to podman-machine-default.
Options
--help
Print usage statement.
--restart
Restart VM after applying changes.
Examples
Update the default Podman machine to the specified bootable OCI image.
$ podman machine os apply quay.io/podman_next
Update the specified Podman machine to the specified bootable OCI image.
$ podman machine os apply quay.io/podman_next podman-machine-default
