Share SMB/CFIS storage between several lxc

[alaso13]

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie with proxmox and I'm making slow progress with everything I want to set up on the minipc. For now I have HA and adguard set up and it is working fine.
The next step I want to achieve is to set up a simple -arr stack with prowlarr, sonarr, radarr, jellyseerr and transmission as a torrent client. So far I have installed all the lxc's but my problem comes when it comes to selecting the storage for the movie and series libraries.

I have a Synology NAS server and I have managed to add a folder to the node as SMB/CFIS, but I don't know how to make so that sonarr and radarr can read and write in that folder without having to create an independent moint point in each one. I dont find this information in the forum.

Thanks a lot and sorry if this is a stupid question

I don't believe you can mount shares in an unprivileged LXC container directly. You need to create a mount point on the host then bind mount it to the LXC container. Someone wrote a tutorial on this https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/tutorial-unprivileged-lxcs-mount-cifs-shares.101795/

You can also google search for more details.

I can confirm that this tutorial DOES work - BIG thanks to the author!
