B. podman exec -ti app /bin/sh The podman exec command allows a Linux administrator to enter a running container and perform operations inside the container. The -ti options specify that the administrator wants to run the command interactively with a TTY and with STDIN attached. The app in the command specifies the name or ID of the running container that the administrator wants to enter. The /bin/sh at the end of the command specifies the shell to use inside the container.

In this case, the administrator wants to enter the container to analyze logs that are stored inside. To accomplish this, the administrator should run the following command: podman exec -ti app /bin/sh This command will enter the running container named app and open a shell inside the container. The administrator can then use standard Linux commands to analyze the logs and diagnose the issue with the failing application
