Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/14254

My use case:

ollama pull qwen3:14b
pulling manifest
pulling a8cc1361f314:  67% ▕██████████████████████████████████████                    ▏ 6.2 GB/9.3 GB   11 MB/s   4m28s
Error: write /usr/share/ollama/.ollama/models/blobs/sha256-a8cc1361f3145dc01f6d77c6c82c9116b9ffe3c97b34716fe20418455876c40e-partial: no space left on device

So I cleared some disk space and ollama had to restart from the beginning. It would save bandwidth if a model pull could restart from where it left off.

Ollama will restart a pull if the server has not been restarted. If you want to restart interrupted pulls and also want to be able to restart the server, set OLLAMA_NOPRUNE in the server environment.

If you want to restart interrupted pulls and also want to be able to restart the server, set [`OLLAMA_NOPRUNE`](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/d18dcd77755b55c9d761e483abee17d1e2b6c58c/envconfig/config.go#L295) in the server environment.

Good... This information should be more visible then.

And.... the "OLLAMA_NOPRUNE" naming is not really obvious.
