# vllm-omni serve
## Stage-based CLI quickstart
The stage-based CLI is designed for deployments that require launching each pipeline stage in an isolated process
(e.g., across separate operating system processes, distinct GPUs, or distributed hosts).
- For **migrated models** that utilize the bundled deployment YAML configurations located in
`vllm_omni/deploy/`, the `--deploy-config` flag is only required to override the default configuration. By default, executing `vllm serve MODEL --omni ...`
automatically loads the bundled deployment configuration.
- For custom legacy `stage_args` YAMLs, pass the file with `--stage-configs-path`.
Example: Initializing Stage 0 (Orchestrator and API Server):
The commands below show a common device mapping where Stage 0 uses GPU 0 and
worker stages use GPU 1 via `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`.
```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --omni \
--port 8091 \
--stage-id 0 \
--omni-master-address 127.0.0.1 \
--omni-master-port 26000
```
Example: Initializing a Headless Worker Stage (Stage 1):
```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1 vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --omni \
--stage-id 1 \
--headless \
--omni-master-address 127.0.0.1 \
--omni-master-port 26000
```
When utilizing a custom deployment YAML based on the new schema, append `--deploy-config /path/to/override.yaml` to each command execution. Conversely, for legacy models, substitute this parameter with `--stage-configs-path /path/to/stage_configs.yaml`.
In the standard execution paradigm, the `--stage-overrides` argument is utilized to apply stage-specific configurations from a single CLI command.
However, under the **stage-based CLI** paradigm, where each process strictly encapsulates a single stage, it is recommended to specify tuning parameters directly via discrete command-line flags for the respective stage, rather than constructing a composite `--stage-overrides` JSON string.
For example, as an alternative to the following composite configuration:
```bash
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --omni --port 8091 \
--stage-overrides '{"1": {"gpu_memory_utilization": 0.5}}'
```
the stage-based CLI permits the direct initialization of Stage 1 with explicit parameters:
```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1 vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --omni \
--stage-id 1 \
--headless \
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.5 \
--omni-master-address 127.0.0.1 \
--omni-master-port 26000
```
