So I guess I know what a hardlink is, but I’m confused by the value of it in Sonarr (and am now realising that I’ve got the settings.
If we hardlink a file that has successfully downloaded, and later the torrent is deleted from the torrent client - wont the hardlink die too? Realising that I’ve set hardlinks ON what I guess is going to happen now is that when I go through and purge some old torrents in a couple of weeks, media will start disappearing too?
I’m having trouble wrapping my head around how to logically configure the two (torrent client, deluge, and sonarr) around a private tracker that requires seeding. Any torrent that comes down with the media not in an archive (eg: file.mkv) will stay in whatever destination folder Deluge leaves it in (either the download location or a ‘move to’ folder I designate), any torrent that comes down is set to auto-extracted (via Deluge) to a folder being watched by Sonarr Drone Factory.
If I set Deluge to not move torrents on completion (except for the auto-extract from rar when archives detected) is it as simple as me turning off the Hardlink setting?
I normally credit myself with being able to sort through little things like this, but I’m a bit lost.
