Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create a Dockerfile, then build the image using podman build, then list images using podman images, then run the container using podman run, then verify the container is running using podman ps.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first create the Dockerfile that defines the container, then build the image from it, list available images to confirm, run a container from the image, and finally verify the container is running.
- ✗
Build the image using podman build, then create a Dockerfile, then run the container using podman run, then list images using podman images, then verify the container is running using podman ps.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot build an image without first having a Dockerfile. The Dockerfile must be created before building the image.
- ✗
Create a Dockerfile, then list images using podman images, then build the image using podman build, then run the container using podman run, then verify the container is running using podman ps.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because listing images before building them is pointless as no images exist yet. The build step must come before listing.
- ✗
Run the container using podman run, then create a Dockerfile, then build the image using podman build, then list images using podman images, then verify the container is running using podman ps.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot run a container without an image. The image must be built first.
