# node rm
```markdown
Usage: docker node rm [OPTIONS] NODE [NODE...]
Remove one or more nodes from the swarm
Aliases:
rm, remove
Options:
-f, --force Force remove a node from the swarm
--help Print usage
```
## Description
When run from a manager node, removes the specified nodes from a swarm.
## Examples
### Remove a stopped node from the swarm
```bash
$ docker node rm swarm-node-02
Node swarm-node-02 removed from swarm
```
### Attempt to remove a running node from a swarm
Removes the specified nodes from the swarm, but only if the nodes are in the
down state. If you attempt to remove an active node you will receive an error:
```non
$ docker node rm swarm-node-03
Error response from daemon: rpc error: code = 9 desc = node swarm-node-03 is not
down and can't be removed
```
### Forcibly remove an inaccessible node from a swarm
If you lose access to a worker node or need to shut it down because it has been
compromised or is not behaving as expected, you can use the `--force` option.
This may cause transient errors or interruptions, depending on the type of task
being run on the node.
```bash
$ docker node rm --force swarm-node-03
Node swarm-node-03 removed from swarm
```
A manager node must be demoted to a worker node (using `docker node demote`)
before you can remove it from the swarm.
