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 will be unmounted.

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

       Note:  This  could  cause  other  processes that are using the file system to fail, as the
       mount point could be removed without their knowledge.

   --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, 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
