Integrate OpManager with Ollama

OpManager integrates with Ollama to bring the power of local AI models into any network monitoring workflow. Infrastructure insights, alert patterns, and performance data are intelligently processed and interpreted using local language models running entirely within the organization's environment. This enables IT teams to move beyond raw metrics and act on clear, context-aware summaries — reducing troubleshooting time and strengthening overall network observability without relying on external cloud-based AI services.

To Change the Default Model

OpManager uses gpt-oss:20b as the default model for Ollama integration; ensure that this model is downloaded locally for use. If you prefer to use a different model, you can override the default by editing the server parameters configuration file:

1. Navigate to <OPM_HOME>/conf/OpManager/ on your OpManager server.
2. Open the file serverparameters.conf in a text editor.
3. Add the following entry at the bottom of the file:

   OLLAMA_GENAI_MODEL <your-model-name>

4. For example, to use llama3:

   OLLAMA_GENAI_MODEL llama3

5. Save the file and restart OpManager for the change to take effect.
