    How big is the volume/partition for that target? What filesystem are you using? I ran into an issue earlier this year/late last year where my volume exceeded 18TB which EXT4 doesn’t support on my setup.

    There’s some setting in sonarr/radarr, I think it’s called “remote path mapping” or something. If you have different mounted volume paths between the torrent container and sonarr, you need to set this:

    Suppose:

    • Baremetal host has directory /mnt/myfiles

    • Your torrent container mounts /mnt/myfiles/torrent_downloads to /downloads

    • Your sonarr container mounts /mnt/myfiles/torrent_downloads to /data/torrent_downloads and /mnt/myfiles/shows is mounted to /data/shows (for copying completed files)

    You need a directory mapping to tell sonarr that the path in the torrent container is different from the path sonarr should look. Torrent client says “I have a new show to copy, it’s in /downloads”. Sonarr doesn’t have /downloads, but if you set up the path mapping, it knows that /downloads on the torrent client is actually equivalent to /data/torrent_downloads in sonarr. Thus, in the sonarr container, it copies the file from /data/torrent_downloads to /data/shows.
