Proxmox or Docker?

Reply in thread

What did you find to be incompatible between proxmox and docker? I get that it's essentially an extra layer of complexity if all you're doing is running docker containers, but I don't see how that makes them incompatible.

I also started off with a converted gaming PC. I went with unraid because there was a simple path to upgrading my drives. I started off with 1 and 2 TB drives and eventually upgraded over the years to 12+ TB drives.

From my brief research back then growing a pool in freenas was a headache where upgrading in unraid was easy.

Someone help me understand the sonarr to jellyfin workflow

It basically creates a second pointer to the same inode which makes file moves instant. So instead of copying the data to a new location and deleting it from the old it points to the existing inode immediately. You can't do it across filesystems though so that's why trash guides recommends using /data/media/tv and /data/torrents instead of the /tv and /downloads paths the lsio setup suggests since docker treats top level folders as different file systems.

It's mostly useful for torrents in my experience when you need to reseed stuff but also don't want to point Jellyfin/Plex to a live downloads directory for security reasons.
