.SH NAME
podman-machine \- Manage Podman's virtual machine
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBpodman machine\fP \fIsubcommand\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpodman machine\fR is a set of subcommands that manage Podman's virtual machine.
.PP
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.
.PP
All \fBpodman machine\fR commands are rootless only.
.PP
NOTE: The podman-machine configuration file is managed under the
\fB$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/containers/podman/machine/\fR directory. Changing the \fB$XDG_CONFIG_HOME\fR
environment variable while the machines are running can lead to unexpected behavior.
.PP
Podman machine behaviour can be modified via the [machine] section in the containers.conf(5) file.
