docker run --restart always parameter does not work

yunnysunny commented 7 months ago

Issue Description

I start the container with --restart always parameter. I think it will been in running status when podman restart. But the container status is Created when podman machine start.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Run podman machine start
Run podman ps -a

Describe the results you received

All the status of containers is Created. For example:

PS C:\Users\lenovo> podman ps -a

Thanks for reaching out, @yunnysunny!

The podman-restart.service system service needs to be enabled for --restart=always to work. @baude should that be done for podman-machine directly or are users expected to do that manually?

yunnysunny commented 7 months ago

Thanks @vrothberg , I can resolve the problem in such steps:

run podman machine ssh to enter podman virtual machine
run systemctl enable podman-restart.service to enable podman-restart service in machine It will restart containers the next time you start podman machine.

rhatdan commented 7 months ago

Should this be something we turn on by default in podman machines?
