Resizing Storage Max Sizes for Ollama

Hi. Not really sure where to put this, but I tried (Community guides + Configuration).

I am working with some ollama models and so. It is all a big gigantic, so when trying to install, I get errors saying that disk space in my VM qube is not enough. Of course I make it bigger, 200 GB. But still get errors.

So I check Settings => Basic => Disk Storage, and I see that we have two things there:

Private Storage max size
System Storage max size

I am not sure how this work, so I made system storage in the template pretty big also (200 GB again).

But then the VM cube will run a resize process (I see that in the logs). I don’t know when it ends, nor how to check it.

Is there a Community guide about these things?
(sorry if this is a bit confusing, but this is the first time that I deal with this so the concepts are not yet firm in my head).

Thanks in advance.

How and where are you trying to install it?

The “private storage” is any folder where there is persistence in the app qube. The “system storage” is the template storage.

Now I have found the problem, Ollama was installing lots of things on the system storage. I reconfigured it to use private storage. Thank you.
