Good day, everyone,

First-time poster here and first-time Unraid user.
I've been going ham setting up Docker (so cool!) on my system, and I've, predictably, made the usual mistakes. Some I noticed and fixed, others I simply cannot track down even with the help of Chat GPT or previous forums replies.

I have the Jellyfin/Jellyseer/Prowler/Radarr/Sonarr/qBittorrent-vpn combo, and all was well functionality-wise except that Radarr and Sonarr appear to be dragging the torrent downloads into their vDisk /downloads instead of passing them to the disk share where they should live. (Only Sonarr is showing as a higher vDisk image rn because I tried reinstalling Radarr, but both were showing the same issue).

I have checked the paths about 6 different times, and they seem to be completely sensible to me, yet nothing seems to change, and I keep getting vDisk warnings. I understand the Local Path /donwlaods part of Radarr and Sonarr is probably the issue, but I fail to see how else they should be set up. Any help would be welcome!

Radarr

Remote Path: /data/movies
Local Path: /downloads

Sonarr

Remote Path: /data/tv
Local Path: /downloads

qBittorrent

Default Save Path: /data/Downloads

With /data/tv and data/movies paths assigned to each category.

Warnings: Share appdata set to cache-only, but files/folders exist on the array (probably suspicious :)

Not entirely clear what you mean by "remote" and "local" path. Usually we talk about container and host paths.

Post docker run for radarr

Hi trurl,

Thanks for your reply.
By local/remote paths, I am referring to the settings that need to be set within Radar and Sonarr under the Settings > Download Clients > Remote Path Mappings.

docker run
  -d
  --name='radarr'
  --net='bridge'
  --pids-limit 2048
  -e TZ="Europe/London"
  -e HOST_OS="Unraid"

  -e HOST_CONTAINERNAME="radarr"
  -e 'PUID'='99'
  -e 'PGID'='100'
  -e 'UMASK'='022'
  -l net.unraid.docker.managed=dockerman

There is no mapping for /data, so anything written to that path is internal to the container which would explain why it grows in size. Normally one would expect /data to be mapped to a location on the the host to avoid this happening.

Post a docker run output for sonarr and radarr

as you should have something similar to

Unraid users don't typically use the "remote path mappings" within sonarr/radarr. To my understanding remote path mappings are for when sonarr/radarr are ran separate from the storage media.
