podman-pod-top - Display the running processes of containers in a pod
podman pod top [options] pod [format-descriptors]
Display the running processes of containers in a pod. The format-descriptors are ps (1) compatible AIX format descriptors but extended to print additional information, such as the seccomp mode or the effective capabilities of a given process. The descriptors can either be passed as separated arguments or as a single comma-separated argument. Note that you can specify options and/or additionally options of ps(1); in this case, Podman will fallback to executing ps with the specified arguments and options in the container.
Print usage statement
Instead of providing the pod name or ID, use the last created pod. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)
Please refer to podman-top(1) for a full list of available descriptors.
By default, podman-pod-top prints data similar to ps -ef:
$ podman pod top b031293491cc USER PID PPID %CPU ELAPSED TTY TIME COMMAND root 1 0 0.000 2h5m38.737137571s ? 0s top root 8 0 0.000 2h5m15.737228361s ? 0s top
The output can be controlled by specifying format descriptors as arguments after the pod:
$ podman pod top -l pid seccomp args %C PID SECCOMP COMMAND %CPU 1 filter top 0.000 1 filter /bin/sh 0.000
