vh 5007ec1236 docs(catalog): archive decommissioned + arbo refreshed (502 G post-migration)
storetank archive fully resolved (919 G -> 0): ~739 G killed (superseded/niche),
177 G migrated into arbo, rest dupes. Rewrite the archive doc as a decommission
record; refresh the arbo catalog to its post-migration 502 G state (+ SDXL/Pony
stack + 9 gen-agnostic utility categories).

Storetank image-models archive — curation / migration / decommission record

Host: irv-ml1 · Former path: /storetank/image-models/comfy/models (was the native /opt/ComfyUI/models symlink target). Status: DECOMMISSIONED 2026-06-13 — emptied of all models (919 G → 0). The active model tree is arbo's /storetank/arbo/models — see arbo-comfyui-model-catalog.md.

Historical record of how the 919 G CivitAI-managed pile was resolved on 2026-06-13: ~739 G killed (superseded / niche), 177 G migrated into the arbo set, the remainder dupes arbo already had.

1. Killed — superseded by arbo's current-gen stack (~739 G)

Two principles: generation-locked LoRAs have no value without their (also-superseded) base models, and arbo already carries its own copies of the shared encoders/VAEs.

Killed Size Why
Hunyuan video (diffusion_models + unet + vae + loras) 74 G older video arch; not in arbo
WAN2.1 bases + loras 118 G superseded by arbo's WAN2.2; loras gen-locked
WAN2.1 encoders / VAE (umt5, xlm-roberta, clip_vision_h, wan VAE) 44 G dupes of arbo's own copies
FLUX.1 — everything (dev/schnell/fill + ~20 community merges + loras + flux controlnets / redux / pulid / clip-vision / FLUX.D encoder / Florence-2-Flux) 445 G superseded by arbo's FLUX.2-klein; loras gen-locked
orphaned umt5 (root umt5_xxl_fp8) 6.7 G last WAN remnant
orphaned llava_llama3 (fp16 + fp8) 23.5 G HunyuanVideo's text encoder — dead after the Hunyuan kill
Chroma v10/v11 + SD3.5-large 28 G niche generators, not in arbo
TOTAL ~739 G

2. Migrated into arbo (177 G)

Everything not superseded moved into /storetank/arbo/models (same-filesystem atomic move, skip-existing so arbo's production copies were never clobbered; 652 files moved, 37 skipped as dupes):

  • Gen-agnostic utilities: Aura-SR v1/v2 + the full upscale_models/ family (HAT/DAT/RealESRGAN/UltraSharp/Remacri/NMKD/Omni-SR) · Florence-2 + CogFlorence captioners (LLM/ + florence2/) · controlnet_union_promax · grounding-dino · SAM + SAM-HQ · yolo (ultralytics/) · depthanything-v2 · vitmatte · nsfw_detector · insightface (inswapper + antelopev2) · facerestore · facexlib · ip-adapter-plus_sdxl · CLIP-vision (sigclip, EVA02-CLIP-L)
  • SDXL / Pony stack: ponyRealism, cyberrealisticPony_v8, lustify, hassaku, waiNSFWIllustrious, juggernaut / dreamshaper Lightning, SUPIR + loras (dmd2_sdxl_4step, ACE++, Illustrious/PonyXL character-design)

comfy-dev owns the follow-on: per-model catalog entries + graphs + heroes that turn these files into usable arbo workflows.

3. Final state

/storetank/image-models/comfy/models (= native /opt/ComfyUI/models) holds only empty category dirs + put_*_here placeholders — 638 K, no models. Decommissioned; arbo is the single live tree.
