 ## DESCRIPTION

+**podman generate kube** will generate Kubernetes Pod YAML (v1 specification) from Podman from one or more containers or a single pod. Whether
 the input is for containers or a pod, Podman will always generate the specification as a Pod. The input may be in the form
 of a pod or one or more container names or IDs.
 
+Volumes appear in the generated YAML according to two different volume types. Bind-mounted volumes become *hostPath* volume types and named volumes become *persistentVolumeClaim* volume types. Generated *hostPath* volume types will be one of three subtypes depending on the state of the host path: *DirectoryOrCreate* when no file or directory exists at the host, *Directory* when host path is a directory, or *File* when host path is a file. The value for *claimName* for a *persistentVolumeClaim* is the name of the named volume registered in Podman.
+
+Potential name conflicts between volumes are avoided by using a standard naming scheme for each volume type. The *hostPath* volume types are named according to the path on the host machine, replacing forward slashes with hyphens less any leading and trailing forward slashes. The special case of the filesystem root, `/`, translates to the name `root`. Additionally, the name is suffixed with `-host` to avoid naming conflicts with *persistentVolumeClaim* volumes. Each *persistentVolumeClaim* volume type uses the name of its associated named volume suffixed with `-pvc`.
+
 Note that the generated Kubernetes YAML file can be used to re-run the deployment via podman-play-kube(1).

 Ideally the input file would be one created by Podman (see podman-generate-kube(1)).  This would guarantee a smooth import and expected results.
 
-Note: HostPath volume types created by play kube will be given an SELinux private label (Z)
+Only two volume types are supported by play kube, the *hostPath* and *persistentVolumeClaim* volume types. For the *hostPath* volume type, only the  *default (empty)*, *DirectoryOrCreate*, *Directory*, *FileOrCreate*, *File*, and *Socket* subtypes are supported. The *CharDevice* and *BlockDevice* subtypes are not supported. Podman interprets the value of *hostPath* *path* as a file path when it contains at least one forward slash, otherwise Podman treats the value as the name of a named volume. When using a *persistentVolumeClaim*, the value for *claimName* is the name for the Podman named volume.

 Note: If the `:latest` tag is used, Podman will attempt to pull the image from a registry. If the image was built locally with Podman or Buildah, it will have `localhost` as the domain, in that case, Podman will use the image from the local store even if it has the `:latest` tag.
