NAME¶

podman-stats - Display a live stream of one or more container’s resource usage statistics

SYNOPSIS¶

podman stats [options] [container]

podman container stats [options] [container]

DESCRIPTION¶

Display a live stream of one or more containers’ resource usage statistics

Note: Podman stats does not work in rootless environments that use CGroups V1. Podman stats relies on CGroup information for statistics, and CGroup v1 is not supported for rootless use cases.

Note: Rootless environments that use CGroups V2 are not able to report statistics about their networking usage.

OPTIONS¶

--all, -a¶

Show all containers. Only running containers are shown by default

--format=template¶

Pretty-print container statistics to JSON or using a Go template

Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

Placeholder	Description
.AvgCPU	Average CPU, full precision float
.AVGCPU	Average CPU, formatted as a percent
.BlockInput	Total data read from block device
.BlockIO	Total data read/total data written to block device
.BlockOutput	Total data written to block device
.ContainerID	Container ID, full (untruncated) hash
.ContainerStats …	Nested structure, for experts only
.CPU	Percent CPU, full precision float
.CPUNano	CPU Usage, total, in nanoseconds
.CPUPerc	Percentage of CPU used
.CPUSystemNano	CPU Usage, kernel, in nanoseconds
.Duration	Same as CPUNano
.ID	Container ID, truncated
.MemLimit	Memory limit, in bytes
.MemPerc	Memory percentage used
.MemUsage	Memory usage
.MemUsageBytes	Memory usage (IEC)
.Name	Container Name
.NetInput	Network Input
.NetIO	Network IO
.NetOutput	Network Output
.PerCPU	CPU time consumed by all tasks [1]
.PIDs	Number of PIDs
.PIDS	Number of PIDs (yes, we know it’s a dup)
.SystemNano	Current system datetime, nanoseconds since epoch
.Up	Duration (CPUNano), in human-readable form
.UpTime	Same as Up

[1] Cgroups V1 only

When using a Go template, precede the format with table to print headers.

--interval, -i=seconds¶

Time in seconds between stats reports, defaults to 5 seconds.

--latest, -l¶

Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. Note: the last started container can be from other users of Podman on the host machine. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)

--no-reset¶

Do not clear the terminal/screen in between reporting intervals

--no-stream¶

Disable streaming stats and only pull the first result, default setting is false

--no-trunc¶

Do not truncate output

Note: When using a slirp4netns network with the rootlesskit port handler, the traffic sent via the port forwarding is accounted to the lo device. Traffic accounted to lo is not accounted in the stats output.
