Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/12323

What is the issue?

After about a couple of days running, Ollama v0.11.11 stops running models in GPU and switchs to using only CPU while "ollama ps" shows models as still 100% in GPU.

I find that simply restarting the ollama container makes things work again, but it is concerning that Ollama gets into that state:

$ docker compose -f docker-compose-gpu.yaml down ollama
$ docker compose -f docker-compose-gpu.yaml up -d ollama

My system configuration:

  • OS: Host and Docker: Ubuntu Linux 22.04.5 LTS
  • CPU: Intel i5-6500
  • RAM: 40GB
  • GPU NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB VRAM
  • Ollama version: 0.11.11

Thank you for your time.

Ah! Thanks for the reference!

It just so happens my Docker host already has /etc/docker/daemon.json, so I can make this change, and test it out.
