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.

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

   --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)

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

       podman kill mywebserver

       podman kill 860a4b23

       podman kill --signal TERM 860a4b23
