# Server Arguments

This page provides a list of server arguments used in the command line to configure the behavior
and performance of the language model server during deployment. These arguments enable users to
customize key aspects of the server, including model selection, parallelism policies,
memory management, and optimization techniques.
You can find all arguments by `python3 -m sglang.launch_server --help`

## Common launch commands

- To enable multi-GPU tensor parallelism, add `--tp 2`. If it reports the error "peer access is not supported between these two devices", add `--enable-p2p-check` to the server launch command.

  ```bash
  python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct --tp 2
  ```

- To enable multi-GPU data parallelism, add `--dp 2`. Data parallelism is better for throughput if there is enough memory. It can also be used together with tensor parallelism. The following command uses 4 GPUs in total. We recommend [SGLang Router](../advanced_features/router.md) for data parallelism.

  ```bash
  python -m sglang_router.launch_server --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct --dp 2 --tp 2
  ```

- If you see out-of-memory errors during serving, try to reduce the memory usage of the KV cache pool by setting a smaller value of `--mem-fraction-static`. The default value is `0.9`.

  ```bash
  python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct --mem-fraction-static 0.7
  ```

- See [hyperparameter tuning](hyperparameter_tuning.md) on tuning hyperparameters for better performance.
- For docker and Kubernetes runs, you need to set up shared memory which is used for communication between processes. See `--shm-size` for docker and `/dev/shm` size update for Kubernetes manifests.
- If you see out-of-memory errors during prefill for long prompts, try to set a smaller chunked prefill size.

  ```bash
  python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct --chunked-prefill-size 4096
  ```

- To enable `torch.compile` acceleration, add `--enable-torch-compile`. It accelerates small models on small batch sizes. By default, the cache path is located at `/tmp/torchinductor_root`, you can customize it using environment variable `TORCHINDUCTOR_CACHE_DIR`. For more details, please refer to [PyTorch official documentation](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/recipes/torch_compile_caching_tutorial.html) and [Enabling cache for torch.compile](https://docs.sglang.ai/backend/hyperparameter_tuning.html#enabling-cache-for-torch-compile).
- To enable torchao quantization, add `--torchao-config int4wo-128`. It supports other [quantization strategies (INT8/FP8)](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/blob/v0.3.6/python/sglang/srt/server_args.py#L671) as well.
- To enable fp8 weight quantization, add `--quantization fp8` on a fp16 checkpoint or directly load a fp8 checkpoint without specifying any arguments.
- To enable fp8 kv cache quantization, add `--kv-cache-dtype fp8_e5m2`.
- If the model does not have a chat template in the Hugging Face tokenizer, you can specify a [custom chat template](../references/custom_chat_template.md).
- To run tensor parallelism on multiple nodes, add `--nnodes 2`. If you have two nodes with two GPUs on each node and want to run TP=4, let `sgl-dev-0` be the hostname of the first node and `50000` be an available port, you can use the following commands. If you meet deadlock, please try to add `--disable-cuda-graph`

  ```bash
  # Node 0
  python -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct \
    --tp 4 \
    --dist-init-addr sgl-dev-0:50000 \
    --nnodes 2 \
    --node-rank 0

  # Node 1
  python -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct \
    --tp 4 \
    --dist-init-addr sgl-dev-0:50000 \
    --nnodes 2 \
    --node-rank 1
  ```

## Model and tokenizer

| Arguments | Description | Defaults |
|-----------|-------------|----------|
| `--model-path` | The path of the model weights. This can be a local folder or a Hugging Face repo ID. | None |
| `--tokenizer-path` | The path of the tokenizer. | None |
| `--tokenizer-mode` | Tokenizer mode. 'auto' will use the fast tokenizer if available, and 'slow' will always use the slow tokenizer. | auto |
| `--skip-tokenizer-init` | If set, skip init tokenizer and pass input_ids in generate request. | False |
| `--load-format` | The format of the model weights to load. 'auto' will try to load the weights in the safetensors format and fall back to the pytorch bin format if safetensors format is not available. 'pt' will load the weights in the pytorch bin format. 'safetensors' will load the weights in the safetensors format. 'npcache' will load the weights in pytorch format and store a numpy cache to speed up the loading. 'dummy' will initialize the weights with random values, which is mainly for profiling. 'gguf' will load the weights in the gguf format. 'bitsandbytes' will load the weights using bitsandbytes quantization. 'layered' loads weights layer by layer so that one can quantize a layer before loading another to make the peak memory envelope smaller. | auto |
| `--trust-remote-code` | Whether or not to allow for custom models defined on the Hub in their own modeling files. | False |
| `--context-length` | The model's maximum context length. Defaults to None (will use the value from the model's config.json instead). | None |
| `--is-embedding` | Whether to use a CausalLM as an embedding model. | False |
| `--enable-multimodal` | Enable the multimodal functionality for the served model. If the model being served is not multimodal, nothing will happen. | None |
| `--revision` | The specific model version to use. It can be a branch name, a tag name, or a commit id. If unspecified, will use the default version. | None |
| `--model-impl` | Which implementation of the model to use. 'auto' will try to use the SGLang implementation if it exists and fall back to the Transformers implementation if no SGLang implementation is available. 'sglang' will use the SGLang model implementation. 'transformers' will use the Transformers model implementation. | auto |

## HTTP server

| Arguments | Description | Defaults |

## Quantization and data type

| Arguments | Description | Defaults |
|-----------|-------------|----------|
| `--dtype` | Data type for model weights and activations. 'auto' will use FP16 precision for FP32 and FP16 models, and BF16 precision for BF16 models. 'half' for FP16. Recommended for AWQ quantization. 'float16' is the same as 'half'. 'bfloat16' for a balance between precision and range. 'float' is shorthand for FP32 precision. 'float32' for FP32 precision. | auto |
| `--quantization` | The quantization method. | None |
| `--quantization-param-path` | Path to the JSON file containing the KV cache scaling factors. This should generally be supplied, when KV cache dtype is FP8. Otherwise, KV cache scaling factors default to 1.0, which may cause accuracy issues. | None |
