NAME

       podman-unmount - Unmount a working container's root filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       podman unmount [options] container [...]

       podman umount [options] container [...]

       podman container unmount [options] container [...]

       podman container umount [options] container [...]

DESCRIPTION

       Unmounts the specified containers' root file system, if no other processes are using it.

       Container  storage  increments  a  mount counter each time a container is mounted.  When a
       container is unmounted, the  mount  counter  is  decremented,  and  the  container's  root
       filesystem  is physically unmounted only when the mount counter reaches zero indicating no
       other processes are using the mount.  An unmount can be forced with the --force flag.

       Note: Podman can be used to unmount Podman containers  as  well  as  external  containers.
       External  containers  are  containers  created  in  container/storage  by other tools like
       Buildah and CRI-O.

OPTIONS

   --all, -a
       All of the currently mounted containers are unmounted.

   --force, -f
       Force the unmounting of specified containers' root file system, even  if  other  processes
       have mounted it.

       Note:  Other processes can fail if the mount point they are using is removed without their
       knowledge.

   --latest, -l
       Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container.  Note:  the
       last  started  container  can  be  from  other users of Podman on the host machine.  (This
       option is not  available  with  the  remote  Podman  client,  including  Mac  and  Windows
       (excluding WSL2) machines)

EXAMPLE

       Unmount container with a given ID

       podman container unmount containerID

       Unmount multiple containers with given IDs

       podman unmount containerID1 containerID2 containerID3

       Unmount all containers

       podman unmount --all
