Thanks to this community popping up on my hot feed, I've spent my entire day setting up sonarr/radarr on my 423+ 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?

The hard linking only works of the source and destination are in the same mount, for example /data/downloads:/downloads /data/media:/media Will create copies and use double the storage on just hard linking, to make it hardlink you need to put the downloads and destination folders in the same directory so make the docker mount look like /data:/data instead. Then you just need to tell your torrent client to put the downloaded files into /data/downloads/(either sonarr or radarr) and the the arrs can look into their folders and then hardlink the files into /data/media/whatever

I have no clue if any of this is understandable, but I can post my docker compose once I get to my pc

Do you mind posting your compose file? I believe I have mine setup as you describe but radarr is still copying the files to my media folder.

Yeah sure, here's my setup including my transmission client. I essentially just give the docker containers access to the whole Torrent directory, instead of having one mount for the downloads and one for the media library. You also need to make sure that the arrs are set to hardlink which should be the default

Pastebin link because IDK how formatting works

Yup, I’ve got mine setup the same as you. Someone else explained the hardlinking to me and I believe mine is functioning correctly. Thanks.
