+# Ollama - A Command Line LLM Tool
+## What is Ollama?
+[Ollama](https://github.com/ollama/ollama) is a developing command line tool designed to run large language models.
+
+## Ollama Installation Instructions
+Create an Ollama directory in your /scratch directory, then download the ollama files:
+```
+curl -L https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64.tgz -o ollama-linux-amd64.tgz
+tar -vxzf ollama-linux-amd64.tgz
+```
+### Use High-Performance SCRATCH Storage
+There are several environment variables that can be changed:
+```
+ollama serve --help
+#Environment Variables:
+#OLLAMA_HOST The host:port to bind to (default "127.0.0.1:11434")
+#OLLAMA_ORIGINS A comma separated list of allowed origins.
+#OLLAMA_MODELS The path to the models directory (default is "~/.ollama/models")
+#OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE The duration that models stay loaded in memory (default is "5m")
+```
+LLMs require very fast storage. On Torch, the SCRATCH filesystem is an all-flash system designed for AI workloads, providing excellent performance. You should change your model download directory to your scratch space:
+```
+export OLLAMA_MODELS=/scratch/$USER/ollama_models
+```
+You should run this to configure ollama to always use your SCRATCH storage for consistent use:
+```
+echo "export OLLAMA_MODELS=/scratch/$USER/ollama_models" >> ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+## Run Ollama
+### Batch Style Jobs
+You can run ollama on a random port:
+```
+export OLPORT=$(python3 -c "import socket; sock=socket.socket(); sock.bind(('',0)); print(sock.getsockname()[1])")
+OLLAMA_HOST=127.0.0.1:$OLPORT ./bin/ollama serve
+```
+You can use the above as part of a Slurm batch job like the example below:
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+#SBATCH --job-name=ollama
+#SBATCH --output=ollama_%j.log
+#SBATCH --ntasks=1
+#SBATCH --mem=8gb
+#SBATCH --gres=gpu:a100:1
+#SBATCH --time=01:00:00
+
+export OLPORT=$(python3 -c "import socket; sock=socket.socket(); sock.bind(('',0)); print(sock.getsockname()[1])")
+export OLLAMA_HOST=127.0.0.1:$OLPORT 
+
+./bin/ollama serve > ollama-server.log 2>&1 &&
+wait 10
+./bin/ollama pull mistral
+python my_ollama_python_script.py >> my_ollama_output.txt
+```
+In the above example, your python script will be able to talk to the ollama server.
+### Interactive Ollama Sessions
+If you want to run Ollama and chat with it, open a Desktop session on a GPU node via Open Ondemand (https://ood.hpc.nyu.edu/) and launch two terminals, one to start the ollama server and the other to chat with LLMs.
+
+**In Terminal 1:**
+
+Start ollama
+```
+export OLPORT=$(python3 -c "import socket; sock=socket.socket(); sock.bind(('',0)); print(sock.getsockname()[1])")
+echo $OLPORT #so you know what port Ollama is running on
+OLLAMA_HOST=127.0.0.1:$OLPORT ./bin/ollama serve
+```
+**In Terminal 2:**
+
+Pull a model and begin chatting
+```
+export OLLAMA_HOST=127.0.0.1:$OLPORT 
+./bin/ollama pull llama3.2
+./bin/ollama run llama3.2
+```
+Note that you may have to redefine OLPORT in the second terminal, if you do, make sure you manually set it to the same port as the other terminal window.
