    -v            Remove any anonymous volumes attached to containers
    -a, --all     Deprecated - no effect.

By default, anonymous volumes attached to containers will not be removed. You can override this with -v. To list all volumes, use docker volume ls.

Any data which is not in a volume will be lost.
