The tooltip suggests that it will delete an image regardless of the state of the container:
but trying to delete the image of a running container fails even with force:
The
docker rmi
docs ( ) show-f
being used when there is a conflict erroradding the force flag untags the image and then deletes it (but the containers still need to be stopped first)
This situation is unlikely in TrueNAS, but possible if a user tags the same image for multiple custom apps.
I've found a few places, like , saying that using
docker rm -f
on an image from a running container will untag the image but not actually delete it.So based on that and the error message in TrueNAS, I don’t think this force option works as suggested by the tooltip, “
regardless of the state of containers
