Sonarr version (exact version): 3.0.10.1567
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 6.12.0.200
OS: Linux Mint
I have two instances running. sonarr.service and sonarr4k.service. Everything works as I want it to. I’m not even sure if I would gain something by upgrading (opinions welcome) in my case.
sonarr.service content is
[Unit]
Description=Sonarr Daemon
After=network.target
[Service]
User=andropovox
Group=andropovox
UMask=0002
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mono --debug /usr/lib/sonarr/bin/Sonarr.exe -nobrowser -data=/var/lib/sonarr
TimeoutStopSec=20
KillMode=process
Restart=on-failure
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
sonarr4k.service content is
[Unit]
Description=Sonarr Daemon
After=network.target
[Service]
User=andropovox
Group=andropovox

ExecStart=/usr/bin/mono --debug /usr/lib/sonarr/bin/Sonarr.exe -nobrowser -data=/home/andropovox/.var/lib/Sonarr4k/

I have
deb Index of /ubuntu/ focal main
in Software Sources, under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sonarr.list
Sonarr’s website states:
The Sonarr v4 package overwrites v3’s systemd unit if present. It’s advisable to make a backup of the v3 data first and uninstall the previous sonarr
package.
I have done backups through System/Backups of both instances. What is the suggested route here?
Ideally, I would prefer to update my existing installations instead of having to redo everything from scratch.
If you uninstall everything, how can existing data be migrated? I find the instructions provided to be quite insufficient for a non-expert user such as myself.
Thanks to anyone kind enough to help.
