Installation

How do I install Podman?

Depending upon your operating system, there are several ways to get Podman. Here are some of the ways.

On Fedora or CentOS

$ sudo dnf install podman

macOS

$ brew install podman

debian or Ubuntu

$ sudo apt-get install podman

Configuring Podman as a virtual machine

You do not need to run Podman as a virtual machine, but it is an option. If you use your container as a virtual machine you probably need at least 4 CPUs, 8 GB ram and 200 GB of disk space.

Podman and Docker are very similar. For all the instructions below, replace the word podman with docker to make it work with Docker.

Check your container's VM settings

$ podman machine ls
NAME VM TYPE CREATED LAST UP CPUS MEMORY DISK SIZE
podman-machine-default* qemu 4 hours ago Currently running 4 8.594GB 214.7GB

Configure settings

If you do not have 4 CPUs, 8 GB ram and 200 GB of disk space.

$ podman machine stop; podman machine rm
$ podman machine init -m 8192 --cpus=4 --disk-space=200 && podman machine start
