The command "sudo podman cp todoapi:/opt/jboss/standalone/conf/standalone.conf ." performs which action?

The command "sudo podman cp todoapi:/opt/jboss/standalone/conf/standalone.conf ." performs which action?

• A. Copies from host to container
• B. Deletes file in container
• C. Copies file from container to host at current directory
• D. Lists contents

Answer: (C)

Podman cp moves files between the host and a container. The command uses the form SOURCE:PATH DEST_PATH, where SOURCE is inside a container and DEST_PATH is on the host. Here, the source todoapi:/opt/jboss/standalone/conf/standalone.conf is a file inside the container named todoapi, and the destination . is the current directory on the host. So this copies the file from inside the container to the host, placing standalone.conf in the host’s current directory. Using sudo just runs the command with elevated privileges; it doesn’t change the direction of the copy.
