While mapped network drives like `X:\` are convenient, they aren't as reliable as UNC paths like `\\server\share` and they're also not available before login. Setup Sonarr and your download client(s) so that they user UNC paths as needed. If your library is on a share, you'd make sure your root folders are using UNC paths. If your download client sends to a share, that is where you'll need to configure UNC paths since Sonarr gets the download path from the download client. It is fine to keep your mapped network drives to use yourself, just don't use them for automation.
## Docker and user, group, ownership, permissions and paths
Docker adds another layer of complexity that is easy to get wrong, but still end up with a setup that functions, but has various problems. Instead of going over them here, read this wiki article [for these automation software and Docker](https://old.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/docker) which is all about user, group, ownership, permissions and paths. It isn't specific to any Docker system, instead it goes over things at a high level so that you can implement them in your own environment.

## Download Client Clearing Items
The download client should *not* be responsible for removing downloads. Usenet clients should be configured so they *don't* remove downloads from history. Torrent clients should be setup so they *don't* remove torrents when they're finished seeding (pause or stop instead). This is because Sonarr communicates with the download client to know what to import, so if they're *removed* there is nothing to be imported... even if there is a folder full of files.
