+Below the models directory you will find a structure similar to the following:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```shell
|
|
|
+.
|
|
|
+├── blobs
|
|
|
+└── manifests
|
|
|
+ └── registry.ollama.ai
|
|
|
+ ├── f0rodo
|
|
|
+ ├── library
|
|
|
+ ├── mattw
|
|
|
+ └── saikatkumardey
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+There is a `manifests/registry.ollama.ai/namespace` path. In example above, the user has downloaded models from the official `library`, `f0rodo`, `mattw`, and `saikatkumardey` namespaces. Within each of those directories, you will find directories for each of the models downloaded. And in there you will find a file name representing each tag. Each tag file is the manifest for the model.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The manifest lists all the layers used in this model. You will see a `media type` for each layer, along with a digest. That digest corresponds with a file in the `models/blobs directory`.

### How can I change where Ollama stores models?
|
|
|
|
|
|
To modify where models are stored, you can use the `OLLAMA_MODELS` environment variable. Note that on Linux this means defining `OLLAMA_MODELS` in a drop-in `/etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.d` service file, reloading systemd, and restarting the ollama service.
