Homelab Academy / Modules
Independent application with evidence.
Module: Sonarr & Radarr
Activity type: Homework / independent application
Objective: Explain Radarr's role in a media automation architecture
Draw a diagram showing a browser, Radarr, an indexer manager, a download client, a staging directory, and a movie library. Label each control and file-data flow.
Write a proposed path-mapping table for a future download-client container that uses the same /downloads path as Radarr.
Compare two Radarr quality profiles in the web interface and explain how upgrade behavior and cutoff differ.
Document which parts of this deployment are configuration state, temporary transfer data, and final library data.
Propose a backup plan for /opt/lab-classroom/class45/config/ that includes backup frequency, retention, restoration testing, and secret handling.
Research how to pin the LinuxServer.io Radarr image to a reviewed version or immutable digest, but do not modify the class deployment.
