I was told this community might be able to help me....I’ve spent my entire day setting up sonarr/radarr on my Synology DS423+ NAS within docker. I got most of it figured out on my own but I’m stumped on how sonarr/radarr takes the files from my torrent client downloads folder and moves them to my media folder for plex/jellyfin to view.

I’ve followed this guide for how my folder structure is setup: https://wiki.servarr.com/docker-guide

Could someone point me in the direction of what I need to do so that when a file is finished downloading it automatically moves to my media folder?

Great, thank you. I will spend some time and go through this.

Good luck, don't be afraid to ask questions. It's a lot to take in the first time you go through it all, especially if you're not familiar with Docker and the concepts of containerisation but once you crack it, it's seamless.

Since I was already set up with docker I didn't want to start from scratch using compose. I went through the guide and set up my folder structure and set my volumes to the exact same variables he did. I've followed some other peoples suggestions too and I have got it to work but now radarr is copying my files instead of hardlinking even though it is set to hardlink in the settings.

Does RADAR's logs say anything around the file copy about why it couldn't hardlink?

[–] ScoobyDoo27@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Nope, I'm not seeing anything in the logs referring to the copying/hardlinking
