[3/8] Configuring inference (NIM)
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
Detected local inference option: Ollama

Inference options:
1) NVIDIA Endpoints
2) OpenAI
3) Other OpenAI-compatible endpoint
4) Anthropic
5) Other Anthropic-compatible endpoint
6) Google Gemini
7) Local Ollama (localhost:11434) — running (suggested)

Choose [1]: 7
Error: Ollama auth proxy failed to start on :11435
Containers will not be able to reach Ollama without the proxy.
Check if port 11435 is already in use: lsof -ti :11435

Reproduction Steps

1. Run NemoClaw install/onboard with option 7 " Local Ollama (localhost:11434) "
2. NemoClaw destroy/Uninstall with default flags which is to retain ollama
3. Re install NemoClaw
