DESCRIPTION

17       Rename changes the name of an existing container.  The old name will be
18       freed, and will be available for use.  This command can be run on  con‐
19       tainers  in  any  state.  However, running containers may not fully re‐
20       ceive the effects until they are restarted -  for  example,  a  running
21       container  may  still  use  the old name in its logs.  At present, only
22       containers are supported; pods and volumes cannot be renamed.
