NAME

       podman-stop - Stop one or more running containers

SYNOPSIS

       podman stop [options] container ...

       podman container stop [options] container ...

DESCRIPTION

       Stops  one or more containers.  You may use container IDs or names as input. The --time switch allows you
       to specify the number of seconds to wait before forcibly stopping the container after the stop command is
       issued to the container. The default is 10 seconds. By default, containers are stopped with  SIGTERM  and
       then  SIGKILL  after  the  timeout. The SIGTERM default can be overridden by the image used to create the
       container and also via command line when creating the container.

OPTIONS

   --all, -a
       Stop all running containers.  This does not include paused containers.

   --cidfile
       Read container ID from the specified file and remove the container.  Can be specified multiple times.

   --ignore, -i
       Ignore errors when specified containers are not in the container store.  A user  might  have  decided  to
       manually  remove  a  container  which  would lead to a failure during the ExecStop directive of a systemd
       service referencing that container.

   --latest, -l
       Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use  methods  other
       than  Podman  to  run  containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those
       methods. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client)

   --time, -t=time
       Time to wait before forcibly stopping the container

       $ podman stop mywebserver

       $ podman stop --cidfile /home/user/cidfile-1

       $ podman stop --cidfile /home/user/cidfile-1 --cidfile ./cidfile-2

       $ podman stop --time 2 860a4b235279
