# Authentication
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/authentication
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
No authentication is required when accessing Ollama's API locally via `http://localhost:11434`.
|
||
|
||
Authentication is required for the following:
|
||
|
||
* Running cloud models via ollama.com
|
||
* Publishing models
|
||
* Downloading private models
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports two authentication methods:
|
||
|
||
* **Signing in**: sign in from your local installation, and Ollama will automatically take care of authenticating requests to ollama.com when running commands
|
||
* **API keys**: API keys for programmatic access to ollama.com's API
|
||
|
||
## Signing in
|
||
|
||
To sign in to ollama.com from your local installation of Ollama, run:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ollama signin
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Once signed in, Ollama will automatically authenticate commands as required:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ollama run gpt-oss:120b-cloud
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Similarly, when accessing a local API endpoint that requires cloud access, Ollama will automatically authenticate the request:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
|
||
"model": "gpt-oss:120b-cloud",
|
||
"prompt": "Why is the sky blue?"
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## API keys
|
||
|
||
For direct access to ollama.com's API served at `https://ollama.com/api`, authentication via API keys is required.
|
||
|
||
First, create an [API key](https://ollama.com/settings/keys), then set the `OLLAMA_API_KEY` environment variable:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
export OLLAMA_API_KEY=your_api_key
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then use the API key in the Authorization header:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl https://ollama.com/api/generate \
|
||
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OLLAMA_API_KEY" \
|
||
-d '{
|
||
"model": "gpt-oss:120b",
|
||
"prompt": "Why is the sky blue?",
|
||
"stream": false
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
API keys don't currently expire, however you can revoke them at any time in your [API keys settings](https://ollama.com/settings/keys).

# Errors
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/errors
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Status codes
|
||
|
||
Endpoints return appropriate HTTP status codes based on the success or failure of the request in the HTTP status line (e.g. `HTTP/1.1 200 OK` or `HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request`). Common status codes are:
|
||
|
||
* `200`: Success
|
||
* `400`: Bad Request (missing parameters, invalid JSON, etc.)
|
||
* `404`: Not Found (model doesn't exist, etc.)
|
||
* `429`: Too Many Requests (e.g. when a rate limit is exceeded)
|
||
* `500`: Internal Server Error
|
||
* `502`: Bad Gateway (e.g. when a cloud model cannot be reached)
|
||
|
||
## Error messages
|
||
|
||
Errors are returned in the `application/json` format with the following structure, with the error message in the `error` property:
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{
|
||
"error": "the model failed to generate a response"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Errors that occur while streaming
|
||
|
||
If an error occurs mid-stream, the error will be returned as an object in the `application/x-ndjson` format with an `error` property. Since the response has already started, the status code of the response will not be changed.
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:21:21.196249Z","response":" Yes","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:21:21.207235Z","response":".","done":false}

|
||
{"error":"an error was encountered while running the model"}
|

```

# Introduction
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/index
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ollama's API allows you to run and interact with models programatically.
|
||
|
||
## Get started
|
||
|
||
If you're just getting started, follow the [quickstart](/quickstart) documentation to get up and running with Ollama's API.
|
||
|
||
## Base URL
|
||
|
||
After installation, Ollama's API is served by default at:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
http://localhost:11434/api
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For running cloud models on **ollama.com**, the same API is available with the following base URL:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
https://ollama.com/api
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Example request
|
||
|
||
Once Ollama is running, its API is automatically available and can be accessed via `curl`:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
|
||
"model": "gemma3",
|
||
"prompt": "Why is the sky blue?"
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Libraries
|
||
|
||
Ollama has official libraries for Python and JavaScript:
|
||
|
||
* [Python](https://github.com/ollama/ollama-python)
|
||
* [JavaScript](https://github.com/ollama/ollama-js)
|
||
|
||
Several community-maintained libraries are available for Ollama. For a full list, see the [Ollama GitHub repository](https://github.com/ollama/ollama?tab=readme-ov-file#libraries-1).
|
||
|
||
## Versioning
|
||
|
||
Ollama's API isn't strictly versioned, but the API is expected to be stable and backwards compatible. Deprecations are rare and will be announced in the [release notes](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases).
|
||
|
||
|
||
# OpenAI compatibility
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/openai-compatibility
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ollama provides compatibility with parts of the [OpenAI API](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference) to help connect existing applications to Ollama.
|
||

## Models
|
||
|
||
Before using a model, pull it locally `ollama pull`:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama pull llama3.2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Default model names
|
||
|
||
For tooling that relies on default OpenAI model names such as `gpt-3.5-turbo`, use `ollama cp` to copy an existing model name to a temporary name:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama cp llama3.2 gpt-3.5-turbo
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Afterwards, this new model name can be specified the `model` field:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions \
|
||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||
-d '{
|
||
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
|
||
"messages": [
|
||
{
|
||
"role": "user",
|
||
"content": "Hello!"
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Setting the context size
|
||
|
||
The OpenAI API does not have a way of setting the context size for a model. If you need to change the context size, create a `Modelfile` which looks like:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM <some model>
|
||
PARAMETER num_ctx <context size>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Use the `ollama create mymodel` command to create a new model with the updated context size. Call the API with the updated model name:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions \
|
||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||
-d '{
|
||
"model": "mymodel",
|
||
"messages": [
|
||
{
|
||
"role": "user",
|
||
"content": "Hello!"
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
# List running models

|
||
|
||

# Streaming
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/streaming
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Certain API endpoints stream responses by default, such as `/api/generate`. These responses are provided in the newline-delimited JSON format (i.e. the `application/x-ndjson` content type). For example:
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.097767Z","response":"That","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.109172Z","response":"'","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.121485Z","response":"s","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.132802Z","response":" a","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.143931Z","response":" fantastic","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.155176Z","response":" question","done":false}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.166576Z","response":"!","done":true, "done_reason": "stop"}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Disabling streaming
|
||
|
||
Streaming can be disabled by providing `{"stream": false}` in the request body for any endpoint that support streaming. This will cause responses to be returned in the `application/json` format instead:
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{"model":"gemma3","created_at":"2025-10-26T17:15:24.166576Z","response":"That's a fantastic question!","done":true}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## When to use streaming vs non-streaming
|
||
|
||
**Streaming (default)**:
|
||
|
||
* Real-time response generation
|
||
* Lower perceived latency
|
||
* Better for long generations
|
||
|
||
**Non-streaming**:
|
||
|
||
* Simpler to process
|
||
* Better for short responses, or structured outputs
|
||
* Easier to handle in some applications
|
||
|
||
|
||
# List models
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/tags
|
||
|
||
openapi.yaml get /api/tags
|
||
Fetch a list of models and their details
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
# Usage
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/api/usage
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ollama's API responses include metrics that can be used for measuring performance and model usage:
|
||
|
||
* `total_duration`: How long the response took to generate
|
||
* `load_duration`: How long the model took to load
|
||
* `prompt_eval_count`: How many input tokens were processed
|
||
* `prompt_eval_duration`: How long it took to evaluate the prompt
|
||
* `eval_count`: How many output tokens were processes
|
||
* `eval_duration`: How long it took to generate the output tokens
|
||
|
||
All timing values are measured in nanoseconds.
|
||
|
||
## Example response
|
||
|
||
For endpoints that return usage metrics, the response body will include the usage fields. For example, a non-streaming call to `/api/generate` may return the following response:
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{
|
||
"model": "gemma3",
|
||
"created_at": "2025-10-17T23:14:07.414671Z",
|
||
"response": "Hello! How can I help you today?",
|
||
"done": true,
|
||
"done_reason": "stop",
|
||
"total_duration": 174560334,
|
||
"load_duration": 101397084,
|
||
"prompt_eval_count": 11,
|
||
"prompt_eval_duration": 13074791,
|
||
"eval_count": 18,
|
||
"eval_duration": 52479709
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For endpoints that return **streaming responses**, usage fields are included as part of the final chunk, where `done` is `true`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
# Embeddings
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/embeddings
|
||
|
||
Generate text embeddings for semantic search, retrieval, and RAG.
|
||
|
||
Embeddings turn text into numeric vectors you can store in a vector database, search with cosine similarity, or use in RAG pipelines. The vector length depends on the model (typically 384–1024 dimensions).
|
||
|
||
## Recommended models
|
||
|
||
* [embeddinggemma](https://ollama.com/library/embeddinggemma)
|
||
* [qwen3-embedding](https://ollama.com/library/qwen3-embedding)
|
||
* [all-minilm](https://ollama.com/library/all-minilm)
|

# Streaming
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/streaming
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Streaming allows you to render text as it is produced by the model.
|
||
|
||
Streaming is enabled by default through the REST API, but disabled by default in the SDKs.
|
||
|
||
To enable streaming in the SDKs, set the `stream` parameter to `True`.
|
||
|
||
## Key streaming concepts
|
||
|
||
1. Chatting: Stream partial assistant messages. Each chunk includes the `content` so you can render messages as they arrive.
|
||
2. Thinking: Thinking-capable models emit a `thinking` field alongside regular content in each chunk. Detect this field in streaming chunks to show or hide reasoning traces before the final answer arrives.
|
||
3. Tool calling: Watch for streamed `tool_calls` in each chunk, execute the requested tool, and append tool outputs back into the conversation.
|
||
|
||
## Handling streamed chunks
|
||
|
||
<Note> It is necessary to accumulate the partial fields in order to maintain the history of the conversation. This is particularly important for tool calling where the thinking, tool call from the model, and the executed tool result must be passed back to the model in the next request. </Note>

model: 'gpt-oss',
|
||
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Tell me about Canada.' }],
|
||
format: zodToJsonSchema(Country),
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
const country = Country.parse(JSON.parse(response.message.content))
|
||
console.log(country)
|

```
|

</Tab>
|
||
</Tabs>
|
||
|
||
## Example: Extract structured data
|
||
|
||
Define the objects you want returned and let the model populate the fields:
|
||
|
||
```python theme={"system"}
|
||
from ollama import chat
|
||
from pydantic import BaseModel
|
||
|
||
class Pet(BaseModel):
|
||
name: str
|
||
animal: str
|
||
age: int
|
||
color: str | None
|
||
favorite_toy: str | None
|
||
|
||
class PetList(BaseModel):
|
||
pets: list[Pet]
|
||
|
||
response = chat(
|
||
model='gpt-oss',
|
||
messages=[{'role': 'user', 'content': 'I have two cats named Luna and Loki...'}],
|
||
format=PetList.model_json_schema(),
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
pets = PetList.model_validate_json(response.message.content)
|
||
print(pets)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Example: Vision with structured outputs
|
||
|
||
Vision models accept the same `format` parameter, enabling deterministic descriptions of images:
|
||
|
||
```python theme={"system"}
|
||
from ollama import chat
|
||
from pydantic import BaseModel
|
||
from typing import Literal, Optional
|
||
|
||
class Object(BaseModel):
|
||
name: str
|
||
confidence: float
|
||
attributes: str
|
||
|
||
class ImageDescription(BaseModel):
|
||
summary: str
|
||
objects: list[Object]
|
||
scene: str
|
||
colors: list[str]
|
||
time_of_day: Literal['Morning', 'Afternoon', 'Evening', 'Night']
|
||
setting: Literal['Indoor', 'Outdoor', 'Unknown']
|
||
text_content: Optional[str] = None
|
||
|
||
response = chat(
|
||
model='gemma3',
|
||
messages=[{
|
||
'role': 'user',
|
||
'content': 'Describe this photo and list the objects you detect.',
|
||
'images': ['path/to/image.jpg'],
|
||
}],
|
||
format=ImageDescription.model_json_schema(),
|
||
options={'temperature': 0},
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
image_description = ImageDescription.model_validate_json(response.message.content)
|
||
print(image_description)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Tips for reliable structured outputs
|
||
|
||
* Define schemas with Pydantic (Python) or Zod (JavaScript) so they can be reused for validation.
|
||
* Lower the temperature (e.g., set it to `0`) for more deterministic completions.
|
||
* Structured outputs work through the OpenAI-compatible API via `response_format`

# Thinking
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/thinking
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Thinking-capable models emit a `thinking` field that separates their reasoning trace from the final answer.
|
||
|
||
Use this capability to audit model steps, animate the model *thinking* in a UI, or hide the trace entirely when you only need the final response.
|
||
|
||
## Supported models
|
||
|
||
* [Qwen 3](https://ollama.com/library/qwen3)
|
||
* [GPT-OSS](https://ollama.com/library/gpt-oss) *(use `think` levels: `low`, `medium`, `high` — the trace cannot be fully disabled)*
|
||
* [DeepSeek-v3.1](https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-v3.1)
|
||
* [DeepSeek R1](https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1)
|
||
* Browse the latest additions under [thinking models](https://ollama.com/search?c=thinking)
|
||
|
||
## Enable thinking in API calls
|
||
|
||
Set the `think` field on chat or generate requests. Most models accept booleans (`true`/`false`).
|
||
|
||
GPT-OSS instead expects one of `low`, `medium`, or `high` to tune the trace length.
|
||
|
||
The `message.thinking` (chat endpoint) or `thinking` (generate endpoint) field contains the reasoning trace while `message.content` / `response` holds the final answer.

## Stream the reasoning trace
|

Thinking streams interleave reasoning tokens before answer tokens. Detect the first `thinking` chunk to render a "thinking" section, then switch to the final reply once `message.content` arrives.

## CLI quick reference
|

* Enable thinking for a single run: `ollama run deepseek-r1 --think "Where should I visit in Lisbon?"`
|
||
* Disable thinking: `ollama run deepseek-r1 --think=false "Summarize this article"`
|
||
* Hide the trace while still using a thinking model: `ollama run deepseek-r1 --hidethinking "Is 9.9 bigger or 9.11?"`
|
||
* Inside interactive sessions, toggle with `/set think` or `/set nothink`.
|
||
* GPT-OSS only accepts levels: `ollama run gpt-oss --think=low "Draft a headline"` (replace `low` with `medium` or `high` as needed).

# Tool calling
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/tool-calling
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports tool calling (also known as function calling) which allows a model to invoke tools and incorporate their results into its replies.
|
||
|
||
## Calling a single tool
|
||
|
||
Invoke a single tool and include its response in a follow-up request.
|
||
|
||
Also known as "single-shot" tool calling.

## Multi-turn tool calling (Agent loop)
|
||
|
||
An agent loop allows the model to decide when to invoke tools and incorporate their results into its replies.
|
||
|
||
It also might help to tell the model that it is in a loop and can make multiple tool calls.

# Vision
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/vision
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Vision models accept images alongside text so the model can describe, classify, and answer questions about what it sees.
|
||
|
||
## Quick start
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama run gemma3 ./image.png whats in this image?
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Usage with Ollama's API
|
||
|
||
Provide an `images` array. SDKs accept file paths, URLs or raw bytes while the REST API expects base64-encoded image data.

# Web search
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/web-search
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Ollama's web search API can be used to augment models with the latest information to reduce hallucinations and improve accuracy.
|
||
|
||
Web search is provided as a REST API with deeper tool integrations in the Python and JavaScript libraries. This also enables models like OpenAI’s gpt-oss models to conduct long-running research tasks.
|
||
|
||
## Authentication
|
||
|
||
For access to Ollama's web search API, create an [API key](https://ollama.com/settings/keys). A free Ollama account is required.
|
||
|
||
## Web search API
|
||
|
||
Performs a web search for a single query and returns relevant results.
|
||
|
||
### Request
|
||
|
||
`POST https://ollama.com/api/web_search`
|
||
|
||
* `query` (string, required): the search query string
|
||
* `max_results` (integer, optional): maximum results to return (default 5, max 10)
|
||
|
||
### Response
|
||
|
||
Returns an object containing:
|
||
|
||
* `results` (array): array of search result objects, each containing:
|
||
* `title` (string): the title of the web page
|
||
* `url` (string): the URL of the web page
|
||
* `content` (string): relevant content snippet from the web page
|
||
|
||
### Examples
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
Ensure OLLAMA\_API\_KEY is set or it must be passed in the Authorization header.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
#### cURL Request
|
||
|
||
```bash theme={"system"}
|
||

## Building a search agent
|
||
|
||
Use Ollama’s web search API as a tool to build a mini search agent.
|
||
|
||
This example uses Alibaba’s Qwen 3 model with 4B parameters.
|
||
|
||
```bash theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama pull qwen3:4b
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```python theme={"system"}
|
||
from ollama import chat, web_fetch, web_search
|
||
|
||
available_tools = {'web_search': web_search, 'web_fetch': web_fetch}
|
||
|
||
messages = [{'role': 'user', 'content': "what is ollama's new engine"}]
|
||
|
||
while True:
|
||
response = chat(
|
||
model='qwen3:4b',
|
||
messages=messages,
|
||
tools=[web_search, web_fetch],
|
||
think=True
|
||
)
|
||
if response.message.thinking:
|
||
print('Thinking: ', response.message.thinking)
|
||
if response.message.content:
|
||
print('Content: ', response.message.content)
|
||
messages.append(response.message)
|
||
if response.message.tool_calls:
|
||
print('Tool calls: ', response.message.tool_calls)
|
||
for tool_call in response.message.tool_calls:
|
||
function_to_call = available_tools.get(tool_call.function.name)
|
||
if function_to_call:
|
||
args = tool_call.function.arguments
|
||
result = function_to_call(**args)
|
||
print('Result: ', str(result)[:200]+'...')
|
||
# Result is truncated for limited context lengths
|
||
messages.append({'role': 'tool', 'content': str(result)[:2000 * 4], 'tool_name': tool_call.function.name})
|
||
else:
|
||
messages.append({'role': 'tool', 'content': f'Tool {tool_call.function.name} not found', 'tool_name': tool_call.function.name})
|
||
else:
|
||
break
|
||
```
|
||
|

Thinking: Okay, the user is asking about Ollama's new engine. I need to figure out what they're referring to. Ollama is a company that develops large language models, so maybe they've released a new model or an updated version of their existing engine....
|
||

||

|
||
Result: results=[WebSearchResult(content='# New model scheduling\n\n## September 23, 2025\n\nOllama now includes a significantly improved model scheduling system. Ahead of running a model, Ollama’s new engine
|
||
|
||
Thinking: Okay, the user asked about Ollama's new engine. Let me look at the search results.
|
||
|
||
First result is from September 23, 2025, talking about new model scheduling. It mentions improved memory management, reduced crashes, better GPU utilization, and multi-GPU performance. Examples show speed improvements and accurate memory reporting. Supported models include gemma3, llama4, qwen3, etc...
|
||
|
||
Content: Ollama has introduced two key updates to its engine, both released in 2025:
|
||
|
||
1. **Enhanced Model Scheduling (September 23, 2025)**
|
||
- **Precision Memory Management**: Exact memory allocation reduces out-of-memory crashes and optimizes GPU utilization.
|
||
- **Performance Gains**: Examples show significant speed improvements (e.g., 85.54 tokens/s vs 52.02 tokens/s) and full GPU layer utilization.
|
||
- **Multi-GPU Support**: Improved efficiency across multiple GPUs, with accurate memory reporting via tools like `nvidia-smi`.
|
||
- **Supported Models**: Includes `gemma3`, `llama4`, `qwen3`, `mistral-small3.2`, and more.
|
||
|
||
2. **Multimodal Engine (May 15, 2025)**
|
||
- **Vision Support**: First-class support for vision models, including `llama4:scout` (109B parameters), `gemma3`, `qwen2.5vl`, and `mistral-small3.1`.
|
||
- **Multimodal Tasks**: Examples include identifying animals in multiple images, answering location-based questions from videos, and document scanning.
|
||
|
||
These updates highlight Ollama's focus on efficiency, performance, and expanded capabilities for both text and vision tasks.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Context length and agents
|
||
|
||
Web search results can return thousands of tokens. It is recommended to increase the context length of the model to at least \~32000 tokens. Search agents work best with full context length. [Ollama's cloud models](https://docs.ollama.com/cloud) run at the full context length.
|
||
|
||
## MCP Server
|
||
|
||
You can enable web search in any MCP client through the [Python MCP server](https://github.com/ollama/ollama-python/blob/main/examples/web-search-mcp.py).
|
||
|
||
### Cline
|
||
|
||
Ollama's web search can be integrated with Cline easily using the MCP server configuration.
|
||
|
||
`Manage MCP Servers` > `Configure MCP Servers` > Add the following configuration:
|
||
|
||
```json theme={"system"}
|
||
{
|
||
"mcpServers": {
|
||
"web_search_and_fetch": {

<Info>Ollama's cloud is currently in preview.</Info>
|
||
|
||
## Cloud Models
|
||
|
||
Ollama's cloud models are a new kind of model in Ollama that can run without a powerful GPU. Instead, cloud models are automatically offloaded to Ollama's cloud service while offering the same capabilities as local models, making it possible to keep using your local tools while running larger models that wouldn't fit on a personal computer.
|
||
|
||
Ollama currently supports the following cloud models, with more coming soon:
|
||
|
||
* `deepseek-v3.1:671b-cloud`
|
||
* `gpt-oss:20b-cloud`
|
||
* `gpt-oss:120b-cloud`
|
||
* `kimi-k2:1t-cloud`
|
||
* `qwen3-coder:480b-cloud`
|
||
* `glm-4.6:cloud`
|
||
* `minimax-m2:cloud`
|
||
|
||
### Running Cloud models
|
||
|
||
Ollama's cloud models require an account on [ollama.com](https://ollama.com). To sign in or create an account, run:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ollama signin
|
||
```

|
||
|
||
## Cloud API access
|
||
|
||
Cloud models can also be accessed directly on ollama.com's API. In this mode, ollama.com acts as a remote Ollama host.
|
||
|
||
### Authentication
|
||
|
||
For direct access to ollama.com's API, first create an [API key](https://ollama.com/settings/keys).
|
||
|
||
Then, set the `OLLAMA_API_KEY` environment variable to your API key.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
export OLLAMA_API_KEY=your_api_key
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Listing models
|
||
|
||
For models available directly via Ollama's API, models can be listed via:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
curl https://ollama.com/api/tags
|
||
```

# Context length
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/context-length
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Context length is the maximum number of tokens that the model has access to in memory.
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
The default context length in Ollama is 4096 tokens.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
Tasks which require large context like web search, agents, and coding tools should be set to at least 32000 tokens.
|
||
|
||
## Setting context length
|
||
|
||
Setting a larger context length will increase the amount of memory required to run a model. Ensure you have enough VRAM available to increase the context length.
|
||
|
||
Cloud models are set to their maximum context length by default.
|
||
|
||
### App
|
||
|
||
Change the slider in the Ollama app under settings to your desired context length.

|
||
|
||
### CLI
|
||
|
||
If editing the context length for Ollama is not possible, the context length can also be updated when serving Ollama.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=32000 ollama serve
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Check allocated context length and model offloading
|
||
|
||
For best performance, use the maximum context length for a model, and avoid offloading the model to CPU. Verify the split under `PROCESSOR` using `ollama ps`.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ollama ps
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```

## Nvidia GPU
|
||
|
||
Install the [NVIDIA Container Toolkit](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/latest/install-guide.html#installation).
|
||
|
||
### Install with Apt
|
||
|
||
1. Configure the repository
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey \
|
||
| sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg
|
||
curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/deb/nvidia-container-toolkit.list \
|
||
| sed 's#deb https://#deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg] https://#g' \
|
||
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.list
|
||
sudo apt-get update
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit packages
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-container-toolkit
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Install with Yum or Dnf
|
||
|
||
1. Configure the repository
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/rpm/nvidia-container-toolkit.repo \
|
||
| sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.repo
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit packages
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo yum install -y nvidia-container-toolkit
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Configure Docker to use Nvidia driver
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo nvidia-ctk runtime configure --runtime=docker
|
||
sudo systemctl restart docker
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Start the container
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
docker run -d --gpus=all -v ollama:/root/.ollama -p 11434:11434 --name ollama ollama/ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
If you're running on an NVIDIA JetPack system, Ollama can't automatically discover the correct JetPack version.
|
||
Pass the environment variable `JETSON_JETPACK=5` or `JETSON_JETPACK=6` to the container to select version 5 or 6.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
## AMD GPU
|
||
|
||
To run Ollama using Docker with AMD GPUs, use the `rocm` tag and the following command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
docker run -d --device /dev/kfd --device /dev/dri -v ollama:/root/.ollama -p 11434:11434 --name ollama ollama/ollama:rocm
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Run model locally
|
||
|
||
Now you can run a model:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
docker exec -it ollama ollama run llama3.2
|
||
```
|
||
|

# FAQ
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/faq
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## How can I upgrade Ollama?
|
||
|
||
Ollama on macOS and Windows will automatically download updates. Click on the taskbar or menubar item and then click "Restart to update" to apply the update. Updates can also be installed by downloading the latest version [manually](https://ollama.com/download/).
|
||
|
||
On Linux, re-run the install script:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How can I view the logs?
|
||
|
||
Review the [Troubleshooting](./troubleshooting.md) docs for more about using logs.
|
||
|
||
## Is my GPU compatible with Ollama?
|
||
|
||
Please refer to the [GPU docs](./gpu.md).
|
||
|
||
## How can I specify the context window size?
|
||
|
||
By default, Ollama uses a context window size of 2048 tokens.
|
||
|
||
This can be overridden with the `OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH` environment variable. For example, to set the default context window to 8K, use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=8192 ollama serve
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To change this when using `ollama run`, use `/set parameter`:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
/set parameter num_ctx 4096
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When using the API, specify the `num_ctx` parameter:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
|
||
"model": "llama3.2",
|
||
"prompt": "Why is the sky blue?",
|
||
"options": {
|
||
"num_ctx": 4096
|
||
}
|
||
}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How can I tell if my model was loaded onto the GPU?
|
||
|
||
Use the `ollama ps` command to see what models are currently loaded into memory.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama ps
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<Info>
|
||
**Output**: `NAME ID SIZE PROCESSOR UNTIL llama3:70b bcfb190ca3a7 42 GB
|
||
100% GPU 4 minutes from now`
|
||
</Info>
|
||
|
||
The `Processor` column will show which memory the model was loaded in to:
|
||
|
||
* `100% GPU` means the model was loaded entirely into the GPU
|
||
* `100% CPU` means the model was loaded entirely in system memory
|
||
* `48%/52% CPU/GPU` means the model was loaded partially onto both the GPU and into system memory
|
||
|
||
## How do I configure Ollama server?
|
||
|
||
Ollama server can be configured with environment variables.
|
||
|
||
### Setting environment variables on Mac
|
||
|
||
If Ollama is run as a macOS application, environment variables should be set using `launchctl`:
|
||
|
||
1. For each environment variable, call `launchctl setenv`.
|
||
|
||
```bash theme={"system"}
|
||
launchctl setenv OLLAMA_HOST "0.0.0.0:11434"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Restart Ollama application.
|
||
|
||
### Setting environment variables on Linux
|
||
|
||
If Ollama is run as a systemd service, environment variables should be set using `systemctl`:
|
||
|
||
1. Edit the systemd service by calling `systemctl edit ollama.service`. This will open an editor.
|
||
|
||
2. For each environment variable, add a line `Environment` under section `[Service]`:
|
||
|
||
```ini theme={"system"}
|
||
[Service]
|
||
Environment="OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0:11434"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. Save and exit.
|
||
|
||
4. Reload `systemd` and restart Ollama:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
systemctl daemon-reload
|
||
systemctl restart ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Setting environment variables on Windows
|
||
|
||
On Windows, Ollama inherits your user and system environment variables.
|
||
|
||
1. First Quit Ollama by clicking on it in the task bar.
|
||
|
||
2. Start the Settings (Windows 11) or Control Panel (Windows 10) application and search for *environment variables*.
|
||
|
||
3. Click on *Edit environment variables for your account*.
|
||
|
||
4. Edit or create a new variable for your user account for `OLLAMA_HOST`, `OLLAMA_MODELS`, etc.
|
||
|
||
5. Click OK/Apply to save.
|
||
|
||
6. Start the Ollama application from the Windows Start menu.
|
||
|
||
## How do I use Ollama behind a proxy?
|
||
|
||
Ollama pulls models from the Internet and may require a proxy server to access the models. Use `HTTPS_PROXY` to redirect outbound requests through the proxy. Ensure the proxy certificate is installed as a system certificate. Refer to the section above for how to use environment variables on your platform.
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
Avoid setting `HTTP_PROXY`. Ollama does not use HTTP for model pulls, only
|
||
HTTPS. Setting `HTTP_PROXY` may interrupt client connections to the server.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
### How do I use Ollama behind a proxy in Docker?
|
||
|
||
The Ollama Docker container image can be configured to use a proxy by passing `-e HTTPS_PROXY=https://proxy.example.com` when starting the container.
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, the Docker daemon can be configured to use a proxy. Instructions are available for Docker Desktop on [macOS](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/settings/mac/#proxies), [Windows](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/settings/windows/#proxies), and [Linux](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/settings/linux/#proxies), and Docker [daemon with systemd](https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/systemd/#httphttps-proxy).
|
||
|
||
Ensure the certificate is installed as a system certificate when using HTTPS. This may require a new Docker image when using a self-signed certificate.
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM ollama/ollama
|
||
COPY my-ca.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/my-ca.crt
|
||
RUN update-ca-certificates
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Build and run this image:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
docker build -t ollama-with-ca .
|
||
docker run -d -e HTTPS_PROXY=https://my.proxy.example.com -p 11434:11434 ollama-with-ca
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Does Ollama send my prompts and answers back to ollama.com?
|
||
|
||
No. Ollama runs locally, and conversation data does not leave your machine.
|
||
|
||
## How can I expose Ollama on my network?
|
||
|
||
Ollama binds 127.0.0.1 port 11434 by default. Change the bind address with the `OLLAMA_HOST` environment variable.
|
||
|
||
Refer to the section [above](#how-do-i-configure-ollama-server) for how to set environment variables on your platform.
|
||
|
||
## How can I use Ollama with a proxy server?
|
||
|
||
Ollama runs an HTTP server and can be exposed using a proxy server such as Nginx. To do so, configure the proxy to forward requests and optionally set required headers (if not exposing Ollama on the network). For example, with Nginx:
|
||
|
||
```nginx theme={"system"}
|
||
server {
|
||
listen 80;
|
||
server_name example.com; # Replace with your domain or IP
|
||
location / {
|
||
proxy_pass http://localhost:11434;
|
||
proxy_set_header Host localhost:11434;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How can I use Ollama with ngrok?
|
||
|
||
Ollama can be accessed using a range of tools for tunneling tools. For example with Ngrok:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ngrok http 11434 --host-header="localhost:11434"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How can I use Ollama with Cloudflare Tunnel?
|
||
|
||
To use Ollama with Cloudflare Tunnel, use the `--url` and `--http-host-header` flags:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:11434 --http-host-header="localhost:11434"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How can I allow additional web origins to access Ollama?
|
||
|
||
Ollama allows cross-origin requests from `127.0.0.1` and `0.0.0.0` by default. Additional origins can be configured with `OLLAMA_ORIGINS`.
|
||
|
||
For browser extensions, you'll need to explicitly allow the extension's origin pattern. Set `OLLAMA_ORIGINS` to include `chrome-extension://*`, `moz-extension://*`, and `safari-web-extension://*` if you wish to allow all browser extensions access, or specific extensions as needed:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# Allow all Chrome, Firefox, and Safari extensions
|
||
OLLAMA_ORIGINS=chrome-extension://*,moz-extension://*,safari-web-extension://* ollama serve
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Refer to the section [above](#how-do-i-configure-ollama-server) for how to set environment variables on your platform.
|
||
|
||
## Where are models stored?
|
||
|
||
* macOS: `~/.ollama/models`
|
||
* Linux: `/usr/share/ollama/.ollama/models`
|
||
* Windows: `C:\Users\%username%\.ollama\models`
|
||
|
||
### How do I set them to a different location?
|
||
|
||
If a different directory needs to be used, set the environment variable `OLLAMA_MODELS` to the chosen directory.
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
On Linux using the standard installer, the `ollama` user needs read and write access to the specified directory. To assign the directory to the `ollama` user run `sudo chown -R ollama:ollama <directory>`.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
Refer to the section [above](#how-do-i-configure-ollama-server) for how to set environment variables on your platform.
|
||
|
||
## How can I use Ollama in Visual Studio Code?
|
||
|
||
There is already a large collection of plugins available for VSCode as well as other editors that leverage Ollama. See the list of [extensions & plugins](https://github.com/ollama/ollama#extensions--plugins) at the bottom of the main repository readme.
|
||
|
||
## How do I use Ollama with GPU acceleration in Docker?
|
||
|
||
The Ollama Docker container can be configured with GPU acceleration in Linux or Windows (with WSL2). This requires the [nvidia-container-toolkit](https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit). See [ollama/ollama](https://hub.docker.com/r/ollama/ollama) for more details.
|
||
|
||
GPU acceleration is not available for Docker Desktop in macOS due to the lack of GPU passthrough and emulation.
|
||
|
||
## Why is networking slow in WSL2 on Windows 10?
|
||
|
||
This can impact both installing Ollama, as well as downloading models.
|
||
|
||
Open `Control Panel > Networking and Internet > View network status and tasks` and click on `Change adapter settings` on the left panel. Find the `vEthernel (WSL)` adapter, right click and select `Properties`.
|
||
Click on `Configure` and open the `Advanced` tab. Search through each of the properties until you find `Large Send Offload Version 2 (IPv4)` and `Large Send Offload Version 2 (IPv6)`. *Disable* both of these
|
||
properties.
|
||
|
||
## How can I preload a model into Ollama to get faster response times?
|
||
|
||
If you are using the API you can preload a model by sending the Ollama server an empty request. This works with both the `/api/generate` and `/api/chat` API endpoints.
|
||
|
||
To preload the mistral model using the generate endpoint, use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{"model": "mistral"}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To use the chat completions endpoint, use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/chat -d '{"model": "mistral"}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To preload a model using the CLI, use the command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama run llama3.2 ""
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## How do I keep a model loaded in memory or make it unload immediately?
|
||
|
||
By default models are kept in memory for 5 minutes before being unloaded. This allows for quicker response times if you're making numerous requests to the LLM. If you want to immediately unload a model from memory, use the `ollama stop` command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama stop llama3.2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you're using the API, use the `keep_alive` parameter with the `/api/generate` and `/api/chat` endpoints to set the amount of time that a model stays in memory. The `keep_alive` parameter can be set to:
|
||
|
||
* a duration string (such as "10m" or "24h")
|
||
* a number in seconds (such as 3600)
|
||
* any negative number which will keep the model loaded in memory (e.g. -1 or "-1m")
|
||
* '0' which will unload the model immediately after generating a response
|
||
|
||
For example, to preload a model and leave it in memory use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{"model": "llama3.2", "keep_alive": -1}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To unload the model and free up memory use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{"model": "llama3.2", "keep_alive": 0}'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, you can change the amount of time all models are loaded into memory by setting the `OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE` environment variable when starting the Ollama server. The `OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE` variable uses the same parameter types as the `keep_alive` parameter types mentioned above. Refer to the section explaining [how to configure the Ollama server](#how-do-i-configure-ollama-server) to correctly set the environment variable.
|
||
|
||
The `keep_alive` API parameter with the `/api/generate` and `/api/chat` API endpoints will override the `OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE` setting.
|
||
|
||
## How do I manage the maximum number of requests the Ollama server can queue?
|
||
|
||
If too many requests are sent to the server, it will respond with a 503 error indicating the server is overloaded. You can adjust how many requests may be queue by setting `OLLAMA_MAX_QUEUE`.
|
||
|
||
## How does Ollama handle concurrent requests?
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports two levels of concurrent processing. If your system has sufficient available memory (system memory when using CPU inference, or VRAM for GPU inference) then multiple models can be loaded at the same time. For a given model, if there is sufficient available memory when the model is loaded, it is configured to allow parallel request processing.
|
||
|
||
If there is insufficient available memory to load a new model request while one or more models are already loaded, all new requests will be queued until the new model can be loaded. As prior models become idle, one or more will be unloaded to make room for the new model. Queued requests will be processed in order. When using GPU inference new models must be able to completely fit in VRAM to allow concurrent model loads.
|
||
|
||
Parallel request processing for a given model results in increasing the context size by the number of parallel requests. For example, a 2K context with 4 parallel requests will result in an 8K context and additional memory allocation.
|
||
|
||
The following server settings may be used to adjust how Ollama handles concurrent requests on most platforms:
|
||
|
||
* `OLLAMA_MAX_LOADED_MODELS` - The maximum number of models that can be loaded concurrently provided they fit in available memory. The default is 3 \* the number of GPUs or 3 for CPU inference.
|
||
* `OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL` - The maximum number of parallel requests each model will process at the same time. The default will auto-select either 4 or 1 based on available memory.
|
||
* `OLLAMA_MAX_QUEUE` - The maximum number of requests Ollama will queue when busy before rejecting additional requests. The default is 512
|
||
|
||
Note: Windows with Radeon GPUs currently default to 1 model maximum due to limitations in ROCm v5.7 for available VRAM reporting. Once ROCm v6.2 is available, Windows Radeon will follow the defaults above. You may enable concurrent model loads on Radeon on Windows, but ensure you don't load more models than will fit into your GPUs VRAM.
|
||
|
||
## How does Ollama load models on multiple GPUs?
|
||
|
||
When loading a new model, Ollama evaluates the required VRAM for the model against what is currently available. If the model will entirely fit on any single GPU, Ollama will load the model on that GPU. This typically provides the best performance as it reduces the amount of data transferring across the PCI bus during inference. If the model does not fit entirely on one GPU, then it will be spread across all the available GPUs.
|
||
|
||
## How can I enable Flash Attention?
|
||
|
||
Flash Attention is a feature of most modern models that can significantly reduce memory usage as the context size grows. To enable Flash Attention, set the `OLLAMA_FLASH_ATTENTION` environment variable to `1` when starting the Ollama server.
|
||
|
||
## How can I set the quantization type for the K/V cache?
|
||
|
||
The K/V context cache can be quantized to significantly reduce memory usage when Flash Attention is enabled.
|
||
|
||
To use quantized K/V cache with Ollama you can set the following environment variable:
|
||
|
||
* `OLLAMA_KV_CACHE_TYPE` - The quantization type for the K/V cache. Default is `f16`.
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
Currently this is a global option - meaning all models will run with the
|
||
specified quantization type.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
The currently available K/V cache quantization types are:
|
||
|
||
* `f16` - high precision and memory usage (default).
|
||
* `q8_0` - 8-bit quantization, uses approximately 1/2 the memory of `f16` with a very small loss in precision, this usually has no noticeable impact on the model's quality (recommended if not using f16).
|
||
* `q4_0` - 4-bit quantization, uses approximately 1/4 the memory of `f16` with a small-medium loss in precision that may be more noticeable at higher context sizes.
|
||
|
||
How much the cache quantization impacts the model's response quality will depend on the model and the task. Models that have a high GQA count (e.g. Qwen2) may see a larger impact on precision from quantization than models with a low GQA count.
|
||
|
||
You may need to experiment with different quantization types to find the best balance between memory usage and quality.
|
||
|
||

For building locally to support older GPUs, see [developer.md](./development.md#linux-cuda-nvidia)
|
||
|
||
### GPU Selection
|
||
|
||
If you have multiple NVIDIA GPUs in your system and want to limit Ollama to use
|
||
a subset, you can set `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES` to a comma separated list of GPUs.
|
||
Numeric IDs may be used, however ordering may vary, so UUIDs are more reliable.
|
||
You can discover the UUID of your GPUs by running `nvidia-smi -L` If you want to
|
||
ignore the GPUs and force CPU usage, use an invalid GPU ID (e.g., "-1")
|
||
|
||
### Linux Suspend Resume
|
||
|
||
On linux, after a suspend/resume cycle, sometimes Ollama will fail to discover
|
||
your NVIDIA GPU, and fallback to running on the CPU. You can workaround this
|
||
driver bug by reloading the NVIDIA UVM driver with `sudo rmmod nvidia_uvm &&
|
||
sudo modprobe nvidia_uvm`
|
||
|
||
## AMD Radeon
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports the following AMD GPUs:
|
||
|
||
### Linux Support

### Windows Support
|
||
|
||
With ROCm v6.1, the following GPUs are supported on Windows.
|
||
|
||
| Family | Cards and accelerators |
|
||
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| AMD Radeon RX | `7900 XTX` `7900 XT` `7900 GRE` `7800 XT` `7700 XT` `7600 XT` `7600` `6950 XT` `6900 XTX` `6900XT` `6800 XT` `6800` |

|
||
|
||
### Overrides on Linux
|
||
|
||
Ollama leverages the AMD ROCm library, which does not support all AMD GPUs. In
|
||
some cases you can force the system to try to use a similar LLVM target that is
|
||
close. For example The Radeon RX 5400 is `gfx1034` (also known as 10.3.4)
|
||
however, ROCm does not currently support this target. The closest support is
|
||
`gfx1030`. You can use the environment variable `HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION` with
|
||
`x.y.z` syntax. So for example, to force the system to run on the RX 5400, you
|
||
would set `HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION="10.3.0"` as an environment variable for the
|
||
server. If you have an unsupported AMD GPU you can experiment using the list of
|
||
supported types below.
|
||
|
||
If you have multiple GPUs with different GFX versions, append the numeric device

||
number to the environment variable to set them individually. For example,
|
||
`HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION_0=10.3.0` and `HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION_1=11.0.0`
|
||
|
||
At this time, the known supported GPU types on linux are the following LLVM Targets.
|
||
This table shows some example GPUs that map to these LLVM targets:
|
||
|
||
| **LLVM Target** | **An Example GPU** |
|
||
| --------------- | --------------------- |
|
||
| gfx900 | Radeon RX Vega 56 |
|
||
| gfx906 | Radeon Instinct MI50 |
|
||
| gfx908 | Radeon Instinct MI100 |
|
||
| gfx90a | Radeon Instinct MI210 |
|
||
| gfx940 | Radeon Instinct MI300 |
|
||
| gfx941 | |
|
||
| gfx942 | |
|
||
| gfx1030 | Radeon PRO V620 |
|
||
| gfx1100 | Radeon PRO W7900 |
|
||
| gfx1101 | Radeon PRO W7700 |
|
||
| gfx1102 | Radeon RX 7600 |
|
||
|
||
AMD is working on enhancing ROCm v6 to broaden support for families of GPUs in a
|
||
future release which should increase support for more GPUs.
|
||
|
||
Reach out on [Discord](https://discord.gg/ollama) or file an
|
||
[issue](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues) for additional help.
|
||
|
||
### GPU Selection
|
||
|
||
If you have multiple AMD GPUs in your system and want to limit Ollama to use a
|
||
subset, you can set `ROCR_VISIBLE_DEVICES` to a comma separated list of GPUs.
|
||
You can see the list of devices with `rocminfo`. If you want to ignore the GPUs
|
||
and force CPU usage, use an invalid GPU ID (e.g., "-1"). When available, use the
|
||
`Uuid` to uniquely identify the device instead of numeric value.
|
||
|
||
### Container Permission
|
||
|
||
In some Linux distributions, SELinux can prevent containers from
|
||
accessing the AMD GPU devices. On the host system you can run
|
||
`sudo setsebool container_use_devices=1` to allow containers to use devices.
|
||
|
||
### Metal (Apple GPUs)
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports GPU acceleration on Apple devices via the Metal API.

|
||
|
||
## Importing a fine tuned adapter from Safetensors weights
|
||
|
||
First, create a `Modelfile` with a `FROM` command pointing at the base model you used for fine tuning, and an `ADAPTER` command which points to the directory with your Safetensors adapter:
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM <base model name>
|
||
ADAPTER /path/to/safetensors/adapter/directory
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Make sure that you use the same base model in the `FROM` command as you used to create the adapter otherwise you will get erratic results. Most frameworks use different quantization methods, so it's best to use non-quantized (i.e. non-QLoRA) adapters. If your adapter is in the same directory as your `Modelfile`, use `ADAPTER .` to specify the adapter path.
|
||
|
||
Now run `ollama create` from the directory where the `Modelfile` was created:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama create my-model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Lastly, test the model:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama run my-model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports importing adapters based on several different model architectures including:
|
||
|
||
* Llama (including Llama 2, Llama 3, Llama 3.1, and Llama 3.2);
|
||
* Mistral (including Mistral 1, Mistral 2, and Mixtral); and
|
||
* Gemma (including Gemma 1 and Gemma 2)
|
||
|
||
You can create the adapter using a fine tuning framework or tool which can output adapters in the Safetensors format, such as:
|
||
|
||
* Hugging Face [fine tuning framework](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/training)
|
||
* [Unsloth](https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth)
|
||
* [MLX](https://github.com/ml-explore/mlx)
|
||
|
||
## Importing a model from Safetensors weights
|
||
|
||
First, create a `Modelfile` with a `FROM` command which points to the directory containing your Safetensors weights:
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM /path/to/safetensors/directory
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you create the Modelfile in the same directory as the weights, you can use the command `FROM .`.
|
||
|
||
Now run the `ollama create` command from the directory where you created the `Modelfile`:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama create my-model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Lastly, test the model:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama run my-model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Ollama supports importing models for several different architectures including:
|
||
|
||
* Llama (including Llama 2, Llama 3, Llama 3.1, and Llama 3.2);
|
||
* Mistral (including Mistral 1, Mistral 2, and Mixtral);
|
||
* Gemma (including Gemma 1 and Gemma 2); and
|
||
* Phi3
|
||
|
||
This includes importing foundation models as well as any fine tuned models which have been *fused* with a foundation model.
|
||
|
||
## Importing a GGUF based model or adapter
|
||
|
||
If you have a GGUF based model or adapter it is possible to import it into Ollama. You can obtain a GGUF model or adapter by:
|
||
|
||
* converting a Safetensors model with the `convert_hf_to_gguf.py` from Llama.cpp;
|
||
* converting a Safetensors adapter with the `convert_lora_to_gguf.py` from Llama.cpp; or
|
||
* downloading a model or adapter from a place such as HuggingFace
|
||
|
||
To import a GGUF model, create a `Modelfile` containing:
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM /path/to/file.gguf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For a GGUF adapter, create the `Modelfile` with:
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM <model name>
|
||
ADAPTER /path/to/file.gguf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When importing a GGUF adapter, it's important to use the same base model as the base model that the adapter was created with. You can use:
|
||
|
||
* a model from Ollama
|
||
* a GGUF file
|
||
* a Safetensors based model
|
||
|
||
Once you have created your `Modelfile`, use the `ollama create` command to build the model.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama create my-model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Quantizing a Model
|
||
|
||
Quantizing a model allows you to run models faster and with less memory consumption but at reduced accuracy. This allows you to run a model on more modest hardware.
|
||
|
||
Ollama can quantize FP16 and FP32 based models into different quantization levels using the `-q/--quantize` flag with the `ollama create` command.
|
||
|
||
First, create a Modelfile with the FP16 or FP32 based model you wish to quantize.
|
||
|
||
```dockerfile theme={"system"}
|
||
FROM /path/to/my/gemma/f16/model
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Use `ollama create` to then create the quantized model.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
$ ollama create --quantize q4_K_M mymodel
|
||
transferring model data
|
||
quantizing F16 model to Q4_K_M
|
||

## Sharing your model on ollama.com
|
||
|
||
You can share any model you have created by pushing it to [ollama.com](https://ollama.com) so that other users can try it out.
|
||
|
||
First, use your browser to go to the [Ollama Sign-Up](https://ollama.com/signup) page. If you already have an account, you can skip this step.

|
||
|
||
The `Username` field will be used as part of your model's name (e.g. `jmorganca/mymodel`), so make sure you are comfortable with the username that you have selected.
|
||
|
||
Now that you have created an account and are signed-in, go to the [Ollama Keys Settings](https://ollama.com/settings/keys) page.
|
||
|
||
Follow the directions on the page to determine where your Ollama Public Key is located.

|
||
|
||
Click on the `Add Ollama Public Key` button, and copy and paste the contents of your Ollama Public Key into the text field.
|
||
|
||
To push a model to [ollama.com](https://ollama.com), first make sure that it is named correctly with your username. You may have to use the `ollama cp` command to copy
|
||
your model to give it the correct name. Once you're happy with your model's name, use the `ollama push` command to push it to [ollama.com](https://ollama.com).
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama cp mymodel myuser/mymodel
|
||
ollama push myuser/mymodel
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Once your model has been pushed, other users can pull and run it by using the command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama run myuser/mymodel
|
||
```

# Codex
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/integrations/codex
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Install
|
||
|
||
Install the [Codex CLI](https://developers.openai.com/codex/cli/):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
npm install -g @openai/codex
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Usage with Ollama
|
||
|
||
<Note>Codex requires a larger context window. It is recommended to use a context window of at least 32K tokens.</Note>
|
||
|
||
To use `codex` with Ollama, use the `--oss` flag:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
codex --oss
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Changing Models
|
||
|
||
By default, codex will use the local `gpt-oss:20b` model. However, you can specify a different model with the `-m` flag:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
codex --oss -m gpt-oss:120b
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Cloud Models
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
codex --oss -m gpt-oss:120b-cloud
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Connecting to ollama.com
|
||
|
||
Create an [API key](https://ollama.com/settings/keys) from ollama.com and export it as `OLLAMA_API_KEY`.

|
||
To use ollama.com directly, edit your `~/.codex/config.toml` file to point to ollama.com.
|
||
|
||
```toml theme={"system"}
|
||
model = "gpt-oss:120b"
|
||
model_provider = "ollama"
|
||
|
||
[model_providers.ollama]
|
||
name = "Ollama"
|
||
base_url = "https://ollama.com/v1"
|
||
env_key = "OLLAMA_API_KEY"
|
||
```
|

|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Install
|
||
|
||
To install Ollama, run the following command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Manual install
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
If you are upgrading from a prior version, you should remove the old libraries
|
||
with `sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/ollama` first.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
Download and extract the package:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64.tgz \
|
||
| sudo tar zx -C /usr
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Start Ollama:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama serve
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In another terminal, verify that Ollama is running:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama -v
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### AMD GPU install
|
||
|
||
If you have an AMD GPU, also download and extract the additional ROCm package:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64-rocm.tgz \
|
||
| sudo tar zx -C /usr
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### ARM64 install
|
||
|
||
Download and extract the ARM64-specific package:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-arm64.tgz \
|
||
| sudo tar zx -C /usr
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Adding Ollama as a startup service (recommended)
|
||
|
||
Create a user and group for Ollama:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo useradd -r -s /bin/false -U -m -d /usr/share/ollama ollama
|
||
sudo usermod -a -G ollama $(whoami)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Create a service file in `/etc/systemd/system/ollama.service`:
|
||
|
||
```ini theme={"system"}
|
||
[Unit]
|
||
Description=Ollama Service
|
||
After=network-online.target
|
||
|
||
[Service]
|
||
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ollama serve
|
||
User=ollama
|
||
Group=ollama
|
||
Restart=always
|
||
RestartSec=3
|
||
Environment="PATH=$PATH"
|
||
|
||
[Install]
|
||
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then start the service:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
||
sudo systemctl enable ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Install CUDA drivers (optional)
|
||
|
||
[Download and install](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) CUDA.
|
||
|
||
Verify that the drivers are installed by running the following command, which should print details about your GPU:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
nvidia-smi
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Install AMD ROCm drivers (optional)
|
||
|
||
[Download and Install](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/install-on-linux/en/latest/tutorial/quick-start.html) ROCm v6.
|
||
|
||
### Start Ollama
|
||
|
||
Start Ollama and verify it is running:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo systemctl start ollama
|
||
sudo systemctl status ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
While AMD has contributed the `amdgpu` driver upstream to the official linux
|
||
kernel source, the version is older and may not support all ROCm features. We
|
||
recommend you install the latest driver from
|
||
[https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers](https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers) for best support of your Radeon
|
||
GPU.
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
## Customizing
|
||
|
||
To customize the installation of Ollama, you can edit the systemd service file or the environment variables by running:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo systemctl edit ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, create an override file manually in `/etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.d/override.conf`:
|
||
|
||
```ini theme={"system"}
|
||
[Service]
|
||
Environment="OLLAMA_DEBUG=1"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Updating
|
||
|
||
Update Ollama by running the install script again:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Or by re-downloading Ollama:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64.tgz \
|
||
| sudo tar zx -C /usr
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Installing specific versions
|
||
|
||
Use `OLLAMA_VERSION` environment variable with the install script to install a specific version of Ollama, including pre-releases. You can find the version numbers in the [releases page](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases).
|
||
|
||
For example:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.5.7 sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Viewing logs
|
||
|
||
To view logs of Ollama running as a startup service, run:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
journalctl -e -u ollama
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Uninstall
|
||
|
||
Remove the ollama service:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo systemctl stop ollama
|
||
sudo systemctl disable ollama
|
||
sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Remove ollama libraries from your lib directory (either `/usr/local/lib`, `/usr/lib`, or `/lib`):
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo rm -r $(which ollama | tr 'bin' 'lib')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Remove the ollama binary from your bin directory (either `/usr/local/bin`, `/usr/bin`, or `/bin`):
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo rm $(which ollama)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Remove the downloaded models and Ollama service user and group:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
sudo userdel ollama
|
||
sudo groupdel ollama
|
||
sudo rm -r /usr/share/ollama
|
||
```

# macOS
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/macos
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## System Requirements
|
||
|
||
* MacOS Sonoma (v14) or newer
|
||
* Apple M series (CPU and GPU support) or x86 (CPU only)
|
||
|
||
## Filesystem Requirements
|
||
|
||
The preferred method of installation is to mount the `ollama.dmg` and drag-and-drop the Ollama application to the system-wide `Applications` folder. Upon startup, the Ollama app will verify the `ollama` CLI is present in your PATH, and if not detected, will prompt for permission to create a link in `/usr/local/bin`
|
||
|
||
Once you've installed Ollama, you'll need additional space for storing the Large Language models, which can be tens to hundreds of GB in size. If your home directory doesn't have enough space, you can change where the binaries are installed, and where the models are stored.
|
||
|
||
### Changing Install Location
|
||
|
||
To install the Ollama application somewhere other than `Applications`, place the Ollama application in the desired location, and ensure the CLI `Ollama.app/Contents/Resources/ollama` or a sym-link to the CLI can be found in your path. Upon first start decline the "Move to Applications?" request.
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
Ollama on MacOS stores files in a few different locations.
|
||

## Examples
|
||
|
||
### Basic `Modelfile`
|
||
|
||
An example of a `Modelfile` creating a mario blueprint:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM llama3.2
|
||
# sets the temperature to 1 [higher is more creative, lower is more coherent]
|
||
PARAMETER temperature 1
|
||
# sets the context window size to 4096, this controls how many tokens the LLM can use as context to generate the next token
|
||
PARAMETER num_ctx 4096
|
||
|
||
# sets a custom system message to specify the behavior of the chat assistant
|
||
SYSTEM You are Mario from super mario bros, acting as an assistant.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To use this:
|
||
|
||
1. Save it as a file (e.g. `Modelfile`)
|
||
2. `ollama create choose-a-model-name -f <location of the file e.g. ./Modelfile>`
|
||
3. `ollama run choose-a-model-name`
|
||
4. Start using the model!
|
||
|
||
To view the Modelfile of a given model, use the `ollama show --modelfile` command.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
ollama show --modelfile llama3.2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# Modelfile generated by "ollama show"
|
||
# To build a new Modelfile based on this one, replace the FROM line with:
|
||
# FROM llama3.2:latest
|
||
FROM /Users/pdevine/.ollama/models/blobs/sha256-00e1317cbf74d901080d7100f57580ba8dd8de57203072dc6f668324ba545f29

|
||
|
||

||
## Instructions
|
||
|
||
### FROM (Required)
|
||
|
||
The `FROM` instruction defines the base model to use when creating a model.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM <model name>:<tag>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Build from existing model
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM llama3.2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

||
</Card>
|
||
|
||
#### Build from a Safetensors model
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM <model directory>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The model directory should contain the Safetensors weights for a supported architecture.
|
||
|
||
Currently supported model architectures:
|
||
|
||
* Llama (including Llama 2, Llama 3, Llama 3.1, and Llama 3.2)
|
||
* Mistral (including Mistral 1, Mistral 2, and Mixtral)
|
||
* Gemma (including Gemma 1 and Gemma 2)
|
||
* Phi3
|
||
|
||
#### Build from a GGUF file
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
FROM ./ollama-model.gguf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The GGUF file location should be specified as an absolute path or relative to the `Modelfile` location.
|
||
|
||
### PARAMETER
|
||
|
||
The `PARAMETER` instruction defines a parameter that can be set when the model is run.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
PARAMETER <parameter> <parametervalue>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Valid Parameters and Values
|
||
|
||
| Parameter | Description | Value Type | Example Usage |
|
||
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- | -------------------- |
|
||
| mirostat | Enable Mirostat sampling for controlling perplexity. (default: 0, 0 = disabled, 1 = Mirostat, 2 = Mirostat 2.0) | int | mirostat 0 |
|
||
| mirostat\_eta | Influences how quickly the algorithm responds to feedback from the generated text. A lower learning rate will result in slower adjustments, while a higher learning rate will make the algorithm more responsive. (Default: 0.1) | float | mirostat\_eta 0.1 |
|
||
| mirostat\_tau | Controls the balance between coherence and diversity of the output. A lower value will result in more focused and coherent text. (Default: 5.0) | float | mirostat\_tau 5.0 |
|
||
| num\_ctx | Sets the size of the context window used to generate the next token. (Default: 2048) | int | num\_ctx 4096 |
|
||
| repeat\_last\_n | Sets how far back for the model to look back to prevent repetition. (Default: 64, 0 = disabled, -1 = num\_ctx) | int | repeat\_last\_n 64 |
|
||
| repeat\_penalty | Sets how strongly to penalize repetitions. A higher value (e.g., 1.5) will penalize repetitions more strongly, while a lower value (e.g., 0.9) will be more lenient. (Default: 1.1) | float | repeat\_penalty 1.1 |
|
||
| temperature | The temperature of the model. Increasing the temperature will make the model answer more creatively. (Default: 0.8) | float | temperature 0.7 |
|
||
| seed | Sets the random number seed to use for generation. Setting this to a specific number will make the model generate the same text for the same prompt. (Default: 0) | int | seed 42 |
|
||
| stop | Sets the stop sequences to use. When this pattern is encountered the LLM will stop generating text and return. Multiple stop patterns may be set by specifying multiple separate `stop` parameters in a modelfile. | string | stop "AI assistant:" |
|
||
| num\_predict | Maximum number of tokens to predict when generating text. (Default: -1, infinite generation) | int | num\_predict 42 |
|
||
| top\_k | Reduces the probability of generating nonsense. A higher value (e.g. 100) will give more diverse answers, while a lower value (e.g. 10) will be more conservative. (Default: 40) | int | top\_k 40 |
|
||
| top\_p | Works together with top-k. A higher value (e.g., 0.95) will lead to more diverse text, while a lower value (e.g., 0.5) will generate more focused and conservative text. (Default: 0.9) | float | top\_p 0.9 |
|
||
| min\_p | Alternative to the top*p, and aims to ensure a balance of quality and variety. The parameter \_p* represents the minimum probability for a token to be considered, relative to the probability of the most likely token. For example, with *p*=0.05 and the most likely token having a probability of 0.9, logits with a value less than 0.045 are filtered out. (Default: 0.0) | float | min\_p 0.05 |
|
||
|
||
### TEMPLATE
|
||
|
||
`TEMPLATE` of the full prompt template to be passed into the model. It may include (optionally) a system message, a user's message and the response from the model. Note: syntax may be model specific. Templates use Go [template syntax](https://pkg.go.dev/text/template).
|
||
|
||
#### Template Variables
|
||
|
||
| Variable | Description |
|
||
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| `{{ .System }}` | The system message used to specify custom behavior. |
|
||
| `{{ .Prompt }}` | The user prompt message. |
|
||
| `{{ .Response }}` | The response from the model. When generating a response, text after this variable is omitted. |
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
TEMPLATE """{{ if .System }}<|im_start|>system
|
||
{{ .System }}<|im_end|>
|
||
{{ end }}{{ if .Prompt }}<|im_start|>user
|
||
{{ .Prompt }}<|im_end|>
|
||
{{ end }}<|im_start|>assistant
|
||
"""
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### SYSTEM
|
||
|
||
The `SYSTEM` instruction specifies the system message to be used in the template, if applicable.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
SYSTEM """<system message>"""
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### ADAPTER
|
||
|
||
The `ADAPTER` instruction specifies a fine tuned LoRA adapter that should apply to the base model. The value of the adapter should be an absolute path or a path relative to the Modelfile. The base model should be specified with a `FROM` instruction. If the base model is not the same as the base model that the adapter was tuned from the behaviour will be erratic.
|
||
|
||
#### Safetensor adapter
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ADAPTER <path to safetensor adapter>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Currently supported Safetensor adapters:
|
||
|
||
* Llama (including Llama 2, Llama 3, and Llama 3.1)
|
||
* Mistral (including Mistral 1, Mistral 2, and Mixtral)
|
||
* Gemma (including Gemma 1 and Gemma 2)
|
||
|
||
#### GGUF adapter
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ADAPTER ./ollama-lora.gguf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### LICENSE
|
||
|
||
The `LICENSE` instruction allows you to specify the legal license under which the model used with this Modelfile is shared or distributed.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
LICENSE """
|
||
<license text>
|
||
"""
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### MESSAGE
|
||
|
||
The `MESSAGE` instruction allows you to specify a message history for the model to use when responding. Use multiple iterations of the MESSAGE command to build up a conversation which will guide the model to answer in a similar way.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
MESSAGE <role> <message>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Valid roles
|
||
|
||
| Role | Description |
|
||
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
||
| system | Alternate way of providing the SYSTEM message for the model. |
|
||
| user | An example message of what the user could have asked. |
|
||
| assistant | An example message of how the model should respond. |
|
||
|
||
#### Example conversation
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
MESSAGE user Is Toronto in Canada?
|
||
MESSAGE assistant yes
|
||
MESSAGE user Is Sacramento in Canada?
|
||
MESSAGE assistant no
|
||
MESSAGE user Is Ontario in Canada?
|
||
MESSAGE assistant yes
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Notes
|
||
|
||
* the **`Modelfile` is not case sensitive**. In the examples, uppercase instructions are used to make it easier to distinguish it from arguments.
|
||
* Instructions can be in any order. In the examples, the `FROM` instruction is first to keep it easily readable.

# Troubleshooting
|
||
Source: https://docs.ollama.com/troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
How to troubleshoot issues encountered with Ollama
|
||
|
||
Sometimes Ollama may not perform as expected. One of the best ways to figure out what happened is to take a look at the logs. Find the logs on **Mac** by running the command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
cat ~/.ollama/logs/server.log
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
On **Linux** systems with systemd, the logs can be found with this command:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
journalctl -u ollama --no-pager --follow --pager-end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When you run Ollama in a **container**, the logs go to stdout/stderr in the container:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
docker logs <container-name>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(Use `docker ps` to find the container name)
|
||
|
||
If manually running `ollama serve` in a terminal, the logs will be on that terminal.
|
||
|
||
When you run Ollama on **Windows**, there are a few different locations. You can view them in the explorer window by hitting `<cmd>+R` and type in:
|
||
|
||
* `explorer %LOCALAPPDATA%\Ollama` to view logs. The most recent server logs will be in `server.log` and older logs will be in `server-#.log`
|
||
* `explorer %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Ollama` to browse the binaries (The installer adds this to your user PATH)
|
||
* `explorer %HOMEPATH%\.ollama` to browse where models and configuration is stored
|
||
* `explorer %TEMP%` where temporary executable files are stored in one or more `ollama*` directories
|
||
|
||
To enable additional debug logging to help troubleshoot problems, first **Quit the running app from the tray menu** then in a powershell terminal
|
||
|
||
```powershell theme={"system"}
|
||
$env:OLLAMA_DEBUG="1"
|
||
& "ollama app.exe"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Join the [Discord](https://discord.gg/ollama) for help interpreting the logs.
|
||
|
||
## LLM libraries
|
||
|
||
Ollama includes multiple LLM libraries compiled for different GPUs and CPU vector features. Ollama tries to pick the best one based on the capabilities of your system. If this autodetection has problems, or you run into other problems (e.g. crashes in your GPU) you can workaround this by forcing a specific LLM library. `cpu_avx2` will perform the best, followed by `cpu_avx` an the slowest but most compatible is `cpu`. Rosetta emulation under MacOS will work with the `cpu` library.
|
||
|
||
In the server log, you will see a message that looks something like this (varies from release to release):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Dynamic LLM libraries [rocm_v6 cpu cpu_avx cpu_avx2 cuda_v11 rocm_v5]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Experimental LLM Library Override**
|
||
|
||
You can set OLLAMA\_LLM\_LIBRARY to any of the available LLM libraries to bypass autodetection, so for example, if you have a CUDA card, but want to force the CPU LLM library with AVX2 vector support, use:
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
OLLAMA_LLM_LIBRARY="cpu_avx2" ollama serve
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can see what features your CPU has with the following.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
cat /proc/cpuinfo| grep flags | head -1
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Installing older or pre-release versions on Linux
|
||
|
||
If you run into problems on Linux and want to install an older version, or you'd like to try out a pre-release before it's officially released, you can tell the install script which version to install.
|
||
|
||
```shell theme={"system"}
|
||
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.5.7 sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Linux tmp noexec
|
||
|
||
If your system is configured with the "noexec" flag where Ollama stores its temporary executable files, you can specify an alternate location by setting OLLAMA\_TMPDIR to a location writable by the user ollama runs as. For example OLLAMA\_TMPDIR=/usr/share/ollama/
|
||
|
||
## Linux docker
|
||
|
||
If Ollama initially works on the GPU in a docker container, but then switches to running on CPU after some period of time with errors in the server log reporting GPU discovery failures, this can be resolved by disabling systemd cgroup management in Docker. Edit `/etc/docker/daemon.json` on the host and add `"exec-opts": ["native.cgroupdriver=cgroupfs"]` to the docker configuration.
|
||
|
||
## NVIDIA GPU Discovery
|
||
|
||
When Ollama starts up, it takes inventory of the GPUs present in the system to determine compatibility and how much VRAM is available. Sometimes this discovery can fail to find your GPUs. In general, running the latest driver will yield the best results.
|
||
|
||
### Linux NVIDIA Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
If you are using a container to run Ollama, make sure you've set up the container runtime first as described in [docker.md](./docker.md)
|
||
|
||
Sometimes the Ollama can have difficulties initializing the GPU. When you check the server logs, this can show up as various error codes, such as "3" (not initialized), "46" (device unavailable), "100" (no device), "999" (unknown), or others. The following troubleshooting techniques may help resolve the problem
|
||
|
||
* If you are using a container, is the container runtime working? Try `docker run --gpus all ubuntu nvidia-smi` - if this doesn't work, Ollama won't be able to see your NVIDIA GPU.
|
||
* Is the uvm driver loaded? `sudo nvidia-modprobe -u`
|
||
* Try reloading the nvidia\_uvm driver - `sudo rmmod nvidia_uvm` then `sudo modprobe nvidia_uvm`
|
||
* Try rebooting
|
||
* Make sure you're running the latest nvidia drivers
|
||
|
||
If none of those resolve the problem, gather additional information and file an issue:
|
||
|
||
* Set `CUDA_ERROR_LEVEL=50` and try again to get more diagnostic logs
|
||
* Check dmesg for any errors `sudo dmesg | grep -i nvrm` and `sudo dmesg | grep -i nvidia`
|
||
|
||
## AMD GPU Discovery
|
||
|
||
On linux, AMD GPU access typically requires `video` and/or `render` group membership to access the `/dev/kfd` device. If permissions are not set up correctly, Ollama will detect this and report an error in the server log.
|
||
|
||
When running in a container, in some Linux distributions and container runtimes, the ollama process may be unable to access the GPU. Use `ls -lnd /dev/kfd /dev/dri /dev/dri/*` on the host system to determine the **numeric** group IDs on your system, and pass additional `--group-add ...` arguments to the container so it can access the required devices. For example, in the following output `crw-rw---- 1 0 44 226, 0 Sep 16 16:55 /dev/dri/card0` the group ID column is `44`
|
||
|
||
If you are experiencing problems getting Ollama to correctly discover or use your GPU for inference, the following may help isolate the failure.
|
||
|
||
* `AMD_LOG_LEVEL=3` Enable info log levels in the AMD HIP/ROCm libraries. This can help show more detailed error codes that can help troubleshoot problems
|
||
* `OLLAMA_DEBUG=1` During GPU discovery additional information will be reported
|
||
* Check dmesg for any errors from amdgpu or kfd drivers `sudo dmesg | grep -i amdgpu` and `sudo dmesg | grep -i kfd`
|
||
|
||
## Multiple AMD GPUs
|
||
|
||
If you experience gibberish responses when models load across multiple AMD GPUs on Linux, see the following guide.

## Windows Terminal Errors
|
||
|
||
Older versions of Windows 10 (e.g., 21H1) are known to have a bug where the standard terminal program does not display control characters correctly. This can result in a long string of strings like `←[?25h←[?25l` being displayed, sometimes erroring with `The parameter is incorrect` To resolve this problem, please update to Win 10 22H1 or newer.

|
||
|
||
Ollama runs as a native Windows application, including NVIDIA and AMD Radeon GPU support.
|
||
After installing Ollama for Windows, Ollama will run in the background and
|
||
the `ollama` command line is available in `cmd`, `powershell` or your favorite
|
||
terminal application. As usual the Ollama [API](/api) will be served on
|
||
`http://localhost:11434`.
|
||
|
||
## System Requirements
|
||
|
||
* Windows 10 22H2 or newer, Home or Pro
|
||
* NVIDIA 452.39 or newer Drivers if you have an NVIDIA card
|
||
* AMD Radeon Driver [https://www.amd.com/en/support](https://www.amd.com/en/support) if you have a Radeon card
|
||
|
||
Ollama uses unicode characters for progress indication, which may render as unknown squares in some older terminal fonts in Windows 10. If you see this, try changing your terminal font settings.
|
||
|
||
## Filesystem Requirements
|
||
|
||
The Ollama install does not require Administrator, and installs in your home directory by default. You'll need at least 4GB of space for the binary install. Once you've installed Ollama, you'll need additional space for storing the Large Language models, which can be tens to hundreds of GB in size. If your home directory doesn't have enough space, you can change where the binaries are installed, and where the models are stored.
|
||
|
||
### Changing Install Location
|
||
|
||
To install the Ollama application in a location different than your home directory, start the installer with the following flag
|
||
|
||
```powershell theme={"system"}
|
||
OllamaSetup.exe /DIR="d:\some\location"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Changing Model Location
|
||
|
||
To change where Ollama stores the downloaded models instead of using your home directory, set the environment variable `OLLAMA_MODELS` in your user account.
|
||
|
||
1. Start the Settings (Windows 11) or Control Panel (Windows 10) application and search for *environment variables*.
|
||
|
||
2. Click on *Edit environment variables for your account*.
|
||
|
||
3. Edit or create a new variable for your user account for `OLLAMA_MODELS` where you want the models stored
|
||
|
||
4. Click OK/Apply to save.
|
||
|
||
If Ollama is already running, Quit the tray application and relaunch it from the Start menu, or a new terminal started after you saved the environment variables.
|
||
|
||
## API Access
|
||
|
||
Here's a quick example showing API access from `powershell`
|
||
|
||
```powershell theme={"system"}
|
||
(Invoke-WebRequest -method POST -Body '{"model":"llama3.2", "prompt":"Why is the sky blue?", "stream": false}' -uri http://localhost:11434/api/generate ).Content | ConvertFrom-json
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
Ollama on Windows stores files in a few different locations. You can view them in
|
||
the explorer window by hitting `<Ctrl>+R` and type in:
|
||
|
||
* `explorer %LOCALAPPDATA%\Ollama` contains logs, and downloaded updates
|
||
* *app.log* contains most resent logs from the GUI application
|
||
* *server.log* contains the most recent server logs
|
||
* *upgrade.log* contains log output for upgrades
|
||
* `explorer %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Ollama` contains the binaries (The installer adds this to your user PATH)
|
||
* `explorer %HOMEPATH%\.ollama` contains models and configuration
|
||
* `explorer %TEMP%` contains temporary executable files in one or more `ollama*` directories
|
||
|
||
## Uninstall
|
||
|
||
The Ollama Windows installer registers an Uninstaller application. Under `Add or remove programs` in Windows Settings, you can uninstall Ollama.
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
If you have [changed the OLLAMA\_MODELS location](#changing-model-location), the installer will not remove your downloaded models
|
||
</Note>
|
||
|
||
## Standalone CLI
|
||
|
||
The easiest way to install Ollama on Windows is to use the `OllamaSetup.exe`
|
||
installer. It installs in your account without requiring Administrator rights.
|
||
We update Ollama regularly to support the latest models, and this installer will
|
||
help you keep up to date.
|
||
|
||
If you'd like to install or integrate Ollama as a service, a standalone
|
||
`ollama-windows-amd64.zip` zip file is available containing only the Ollama CLI
|
||
and GPU library dependencies for Nvidia. If you have an AMD GPU, also download
|
||
and extract the additional ROCm package `ollama-windows-amd64-rocm.zip` into the
|
||
same directory. This allows for embedding Ollama in existing applications, or
|
||
running it as a system service via `ollama serve` with tools such as
|
||
[NSSM](https://nssm.cc/).
|
||
|
||
<Note>
|
||
If you are upgrading from a prior version, you should remove the old directories first.
