Remove PMM Server Podman container

Remove the PMM Server Podman container, images, and data when you no longer need this installation or want to perform a complete reinstallation.

Caution

These steps delete the PMM Server Docker image and the associated PMM metrics data.

To completely remove your container and data:

  1. Stop the PMM Server service:

    systemctl --user stop pmm-server

  2. If you’re using Watchtower for UI upgrades, stop it too:

    systemctl --user stop watchtower

  3. Remove the PMM data volume:

    podman volume rm --force pmm-server

  4. Remove the PMM Server images:

    podman rmi $(podman images | grep "pmm-server" | awk {'print $3'})

  5. Disable the SystemD services: 

    systemctl --user disable pmm-server
systemctl --user disable watchtower

  6. Optionally, remove service files: 

    rm -f %h/.config/systemd/user/pmm-server.service
rm -f %h/.config/systemd/user/pmm-server.env
rm -f %h/.config/systemd/user/watchtower.service
rm -f %h/.config/systemd/user/watchtower.env

  7. If you no longer need it, remove the PMM network: 

    podman network rm pmm_default
