NAME

podman-kill - Kill the main process in one or more containers

SYNOPSIS

podman kill [options] [container …]

podman container kill [options] [container …]

DESCRIPTION

The main process inside each container specified will be sent SIGKILL, or any signal specified with option –signal.

OPTIONS

–all, -a

Signal all running containers. This does not include paused containers.

–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.

The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

–signal, s

Signal to send to the container. For more information on Linux signals, refer to man signal(7).
