If 32 an image has one or more tags referencing it, you must remove all of them before 33 the image is removed. Digest references are removed automatically when an image 34 is removed by tag. 35 36 ```bash 37 $ docker images 38 39 REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE 40 test1 latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 41 test latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 42 test2 latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 43 44 $ docker rmi fd484f19954f 45 46 Error: Conflict, cannot delete image fd484f19954f because it is tagged in multiple repositories, use -f to force 47 2013/12/11 05:47:16 Error: failed to remove one or more images 48 49 $ docker rmi test1 50 51 Untagged: test1:latest 52 53 $ docker rmi test2 54 55 Untagged: test2:latest 56 57 58 $ docker images 59 60 REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE 61 test latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 62 63 $ docker rmi test 64 65 Untagged: test:latest 66 Deleted: fd484f19954f4920da7ff372b5067f5b7ddb2fd3830cecd17b96ea9e286ba5b8 67 ``` 68 69 If you use the `-f` flag and specify the image's short or long ID, then this 70 command untags and removes all images that match the specified ID. 71 72 ```bash 73 $ docker images 74 75 REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE 76 test1 latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 77 test latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 78 test2 latest fd484f19954f 23 seconds ago 7 B (virtual 4.964 MB) 79 80 $ docker rmi -f fd484f19954f 81 82 Untagged: test1:latest 83 Untagged: test:latest 84 Untagged: test2:latest 85 Deleted: fd484f19954f4920da7ff372b5067f5b7ddb2fd3830cecd17b96ea9e286ba5b8 86 ``` 87 88 An image pulled by digest has no tag associated with it: 89 90 ```bash 91 $ docker images --digests 92 93 REPOSITORY TAG DIGEST IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE 94 localhost:5000/test/busybox <none> sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf 4986bf8c1536 9 weeks ago 2.43 MB 95 ``` 96 97 To remove an image using its digest: 98 99 ```bash 100 $ docker rmi localhost:5000/test/busybox@sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf 101 Untagged: localhost:5000/test/busybox@sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf 102 Deleted: 4986bf8c15363d1c5d15512d5266f8777bfba4974ac56e3270e7760f6f0a8125 103 Deleted: ea13149945cb6b1e746bf28032f02e9b5a793523481a0a18645fc77ad53c4ea2 104 Deleted: df7546f9f060a2268024c8a230d8639878585defcc1bc6f79d2728a13957871b 105 ```
