.SH NAME
.PP
podman\-start \- Start one or more containers

.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\fBpodman start\fP [\fIoptions\fP] \fIcontainer\fP ...

.PP
\fBpodman container start\fP [\fIoptions\fP] \fIcontainer\fP ...

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Start one or more containers.  You may use container IDs or names as input.  The \fIattach\fP and \fIinteractive\fP
options cannot be used to override the \fI\-\-tty\fP and \fI\-\-interactive\fP options from when the container
was created. If you attempt to start a running container with the \fI\-\-attach\fP option, podman will simply
attach to the container.

.SH OPTIONS
.SS \fB\-\-attach\fP, \fB\-a\fP
.PP
Attach container's STDOUT and STDERR.  The default is false. This option cannot be used when
starting multiple containers.

.SS \fB\-\-detach\-keys\fP=\fIsequence\fP
.PP
Specify the key sequence for detaching a container. Format is a single character \fB\fC[a\-Z]\fR or one or more \fB\fCctrl\-<value>\fR characters where \fB\fC<value>\fR is one of: \fB\fCa\-z\fR, \fB\fC@\fR, \fB\fC^\fR, \fB\fC[\fR, \fB\fC,\fR or \fB\fC\_\fR\&. Specifying "" will disable this feature. The default is \fIctrl\-p,ctrl\-q\fP\&.

.SS \fB\-\-interactive\fP, \fB\-i\fP
.PP
Attach container's STDIN. The default is false.

.SS \fB\-\-latest\fP, \fB\-l\fP
.PP
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI\-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.

.PP
The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

.SS \fB\-\-sig\-proxy\fP=\fItrue|false\fP
.PP
Proxy received signals to the process (non\-TTY mode only). SIGCHLD, SIGSTOP, and SIGKILL are not proxied. The default is \fItrue\fP when attaching, \fIfalse\fP otherwise.
