📁 Volume Mounts

🎛️ Smart Model Management

The ComfyUI Docker image includes an intelligent model management system that automatically downloads models based on your needs.

Model Download Modes

Control model downloading with the MODEL_DOWNLOAD environment variable:

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=default (Default)

Downloads essential model to get started:

• Stable Diffusion 1.5 - Most popular base model (4GB)

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=common

Downloads comprehensive starter set:

• Stable Diffusion 1.5 + SD 1.5 VAE
• SDXL Base 1.0 + SDXL Refiner 1.0
• ControlNet models (Canny, Depth, OpenPose)
• Real-ESRGAN upscalers (4x General + 4x Anime)
• EasyNegative embedding

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=realistic

Downloads realistic photo models:

• Realistic Vision v5.1 - High-quality realistic images
• DreamShaper 8 - Versatile realistic model
• Realistic VAE

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=photorealistic

Downloads SDXL-based photorealistic models:

• Juggernaut XL v9 - Top-tier SDXL photorealism
• RealVisXL V4.0 - Excellent SDXL realistic model

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=artistic

Downloads creative/stylized models:

• Deliberate v2 - Artistic and painterly style

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=all

Downloads everything from all model sets above (⚠️ Large download ~100GB+)

MODEL_DOWNLOAD=none

Skips all downloads - uses only existing models in volumes

Custom Model Sets

Add your own sections to models.yaml and use them:

bash
MODEL_DOWNLOAD=mycustom

Docker Usage Examples

Basic Usage (SD 1.5 only)

bash
docker run -d \
  --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri --group-add=video \
  -p 8188:8188 \
  -v ./models:/workspace/ComfyUI/models \
  corundex/comfyui-rocm:latest

Common Model Set

bash
docker run -d \
  --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri --group-add=video \
  -p 8188:8188 \
  -e MODEL_DOWNLOAD=common \
  -v ./models:/workspace/ComfyUI/models \
  corundex/comfyui-rocm:latest

All Models (Large Download)

bash
docker run -d \
  --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri --group-add=video \
  -p 8188:8188 \
  -e MODEL_DOWNLOAD=all \
  -v ./models:/workspace/ComfyUI/models \
  corundex/comfyui-rocm:latest

No Downloads (Use Existing Models)

bash
docker run -d \
  --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri --group-add=video \
  -p 8188:8188 \
  -e MODEL_DOWNLOAD=none \
  -v ./models:/workspace/ComfyUI/models \
  corundex/comfyui-rocm:latest

Smart Features

Automatic Skip Existing

• Never re-downloads existing models
• Validates file sizes - redownloads corrupted files
• Resume support - continues interrupted downloads

Model Inventory

On startup, see what's available:

[ComfyUI] Current model inventory:
  checkpoints: 3 models
  vae: 1 models
  loras: 2 models
  upscale_models: 1 models
  controlnet: 3 models
  embeddings: 1 models

Customizing Models

Edit models.yaml

Add your own model sections in YAML format:

yaml
models:
  mycustom:
    - name: "My Custom Model"
      url: "https://example.com/model.safetensors"
      path: "checkpoints/my_model.safetensors"
      min_size: 2000000000
    - name: "Another Model"
      url: "https://example.com/model2.safetensors"
      path: "checkpoints/model2.safetensors"
      min_size: 4000000000

Model Configuration Format

• name: Human-readable description
• url: Download URL
• path: Relative path from /workspace/ComfyUI/models/
• min_size: Minimum file size in bytes for validation

🧪 Tested Hardware

• AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT (16GB VRAM) ✅

⚡ Performance Notes

• Image Generation: ~30-60 seconds for 512x512 (depends on model and steps)
• Memory Usage: 4-8GB VRAM for basic operations
• Model Loading: ~30-60 seconds first time, cached afterward
• Batch Processing: Supported for multiple images

🚀 Performance Tips

1. Use Persistent Volumes: Always mount model directories to avoid re-downloading
2. Start with default: Test with basic model first
3. Upgrade to all: Download full set when ready
4. Custom Sets: Create targeted collections for specific workflows
5. External Storage: Use fast SSD for model storage

🔍 Troubleshooting

Container won't start

bash
# Check ROCm drivers
rocm-smi

# Check Docker GPU access
docker run --rm --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri rocm/pytorch:latest rocm-smi

ComfyUI shows "No GPU detected"

bash
# Verify ROCm in container
docker exec comfyui-rocm python -c "import torch; print(f'ROCm: {torch.cuda.is_available()}')"

Model Download Failures

• Check internet connection
• Verify HuggingFace/source availability
• Check disk space in mounted volumes
• Review logs for specific error messages

Model Not Found

• Ensure model downloaded successfully
• Check file permissions in mounted volumes
• Verify model file isn't corrupted (size check)

Startup Issues

• Check MODEL_DOWNLOAD value is valid
• Ensure volumes are properly mounted
• Review container logs for errors

Out of memory errors

• Reduce batch size in workflow
• Use smaller models
• Ensure sufficient VRAM (8GB minimum)
