Radarr on ReadyNAS 104

[azraeluknas]

Hi all,

I've got a ReadyNAS 104 with firmware 6.8.1. Does anyone know of a community addon for radarr or is otherwise able to point to to some info in getting radarr working on my NAS?

many thanks

He wants radarr ( https://radarr.video/ )

There are a couple of posts from folks who manually installed it on their NAS, but they don't provide any guidance on exactly what they did.

Thanks JohnM_S, but StephenB is right, radarr not raidar 🙂

Not being very happy with results from Couchpotato I thought I would investgate Radarr and found this step by step installation guide LINK

This worked for me last night and I am not very Debian aware, it has increased my root usage by around 8-9% to 27%, perhaps I could have reduced this if I knew what I was doing 

[azraeluknas]

Thanks Bedlam1 - am I right that if it isn't a proper app it'll be wiped every time there's a firmware update? (not even sure what I base that on other than expecting the worst 🙂 )

[bedlam1]

Sorry I don't know the answer to that (I guess a Factory Default would though)

No.  OS reinstalls and firmware updates won't normally wipe it, unless the system detects a library conflict with the update.

A factory reset of course wipes everything.

Just an update, my root usage is holding steady, in fact it has dropped from 27% to 25% today 

[StephenB]

25% full isn't a problem.

If radarr is just installed on the OS partition, it might well be stable.  But perhaps look for it's database.  You could move that to /data, and replace the database with a link (look up the ln command).  Then if the database grows, it won't affect OS disk space.

Another option is that you can move its folder(s) to /apps, and then use ln to replace the original folder(s) with a link.

I avoided placing anything concerning my data in root folders, it is all in "data" (including it's database and jpg files etc.), I just wasn't sure what would happen with a large number of files Radarr downloaded into Debian, but that seems OK too.

Is there a way to put a link into the NAS GUI to open Radarr @StephenB, am currently using a browser "favourite I created.

It sounds like you are ok as far as OS partition space goes.

I don't know of one.
