preflight-container-check

You can validate a container image for Red Hat Software Certification by running the preflight tool with the command `preflight check container <image-reference>`, which executes checks and helps interpret results for submission to Red Hat Partner Connect.

The preflight tool is used for container validation to ensure images meet Red Hat Software Certification requirements. It handles authentication, runs compliance checks, assists with debugging failures, and guides the submission of results to Red Hat Partner Connect.

Yes, you need Docker to run preflight checks on container images. Docker is a required dependency alongside the preflight tool to validate container images against Red Hat Software Certification requirements and interpret check outcomes.

Yes, you can validate multi-architecture container images offline with preflight. The tool supports optional offline mode and multi-architecture validation to ensure container images meet Red Hat Software Certification requirements without requiring continuous network access.

To debug container image check failures during Red Hat certification, use the preflight tool's results interpretation features to identify specific compliance issues, then resolve the failures and rerun the `preflight check container` command to verify your image meets Red Hat Software Certification standards.

To submit container validation results to Red Hat Partner Connect, use the preflight tool to handle authentication and guide you through the submission process after successfully running checks and resolving any compliance failures for your container image.
