NAME

       podman-system-prune - Remove all unused pod, container, image and volume data

SYNOPSIS

       podman system prune [options]

DESCRIPTION

       podman  system prune removes all unused containers (both dangling and unreferenced), pods and optionally,
       volumes from local storage.

       With the --all option, you can delete all unused images.  Unused images are dangling images  as  well  as
       any image that does not have any containers based on it.

       By default, volumes are not removed to prevent important data from being deleted if there is currently no
       container using the volume. Use the --volumes flag when running the command to prune volumes as well.

OPTIONS

   --all, -a
       Recursively remove all unused pod, container, image and volume data (Maximum 50 iterations.)

   --filter=filters
       Provide filter values.

       The  --filter  flag  format is of “key=value”. If there is more than one filter, then pass multiple flags
       (e.g., --filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz")

       Supported filters:

              • until (timestamp) - only remove containers and images created before given timestamp

              • label (label=key, label=key=value, label!=key, or label!=key=value) - only remove containers and
                images, with (or without, in case label!=... is used) the specified labels.

       The until filter can be Unix timestamps, date formatted timestamps, or Go  duration  strings  (e.g.  10m,
       1h30m) computed relative to the machine’s time.

       The  label filter accepts two formats. One is the label=... (label=key or label=key=value), which removes
       containers and images with the specified labels. The  other  format  is  the  label!=...  (label!=key  or
       label!=key=value), which removes containers and images without the specified labels.

   --force, -f
       Do not prompt for confirmation

   --help, -h
       Print usage statement

   --volumes
       Prune volumes currently unused by any container
