Documented steps Save an image to a tar file: podman save -o myimage.tar <image>:<tag> (writes to STDOUT by default; redirect with -o/--output). Load it back on any machine: podman load -i myimage.tar, or pipe directly with podman save <image> | podman load. The archive preserves image layers, history, and tags; loading restores the same image (unlike podman export/import, which flatten filesystems). Load from a directory or a URL: podman load --input=./save-dir or from an http(s) URL pointing to a tar archive. Choose the format with --format (docker-archive or oci-archive); the local client can also re-load an oci-dir or docker-dir produced by podman save. Known gotchas A colon ':' is a restricted character and cannot appear in an output file name. podman save operates on images; to capture a container's filesystem instead use podman export (single-layer tarball, no history). podman load reads STDIN by default; use --input for files, directories, or URLs. podman import (from a rootfs tarball, e.g. one made by podman export) builds a NEW image with no history — different from podman load.
