What is the issue?

Description

When internet connection is lost during model download, the process starts again from 0% instead of resuming from the interrupted point.

Current Behavior

  • Download fails on connection loss
  • When connection restored, download restarts from 0%
  • All previous download progress is lost

Expected Behavior

  • Download should pause when connection lost
  • Should resume from previous progress when reconnected
  • Implement proper download state tracking

Technical Considerations

  • Need download progress persistence
  • Connection state monitoring
  • Resume capability implementation

OS

Linux

GPU

Nvidia

CPU

AMD

Ollama version

Just updated now

The current behaviour is to resume from the previous point when ollama pull model is run again. However, if you restart the ollama server, one of the first things it does is do a housekeeping sweep and cleans up any extraneous files. So the expected behaviour is met if you don't restart the server.
