qbittorrent-mam

MAM (MyAnonamouse) torrent client. Image: linuxserver/qbittorrent:4.6.7.

WebUI: 192.168.2.190:8080, creds: admin / 32Ab0321!!
Volume: /mnt/tank/media:/data (only — bookingest accessible as /data/bookingest via this mount; separate mount breaks hardlinks)
Config: /mnt/tank/appdata/qbittorrent/

Tuned settings (4-core Xeon E5-1620 v2, 8 GB RAM, 1 Gbps):

max_active_downloads: 70
disk_cache: 512 MB
max_connec: 1000, max_connec_per_torrent: 200

Category	Save Path	Used By
`MAM`	`/data/content/books-seeds`	Direct MAM ebook downloads
`audiobooks`	`/data/content/audiobooks`	Audiobookshelf library
`books-shelfmark`	`/data/bookingest` (default)	Shelfmark ebooks

On-completion Hook

Script: /mnt/tank/appdata/qbittorrent/scripts/hardlink-to-ingest.sh — fires only for MAM category. Hardlinks by extension, preserving directory structure:

.epub/.mobi/.azw3/.pdf etc. → /data/bookingest (CWA ingest)
.m4b/.mp3/.m4a/.aax etc. → /data/content/audiobooks (Audiobookshelf)
.cbz/.cbr/.cb7/.cbt etc. → /data/content/comics (Komga)

Hardlinks work because bookingest and books-seeds are both on the tank/media ZFS dataset.

Fixing Incorrect Save Paths

The API setLocation returns 200 but silently fails. Reliable method:

docker kill --signal SIGKILL qbittorrent-mam
Patch qBt-savePath AND save_path in /mnt/tank/appdata/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/BT_backup/<hash>.fastresume
Delete all *.fastresume.* stale backup files
docker start qbittorrent-mam
Force-recheck the affected torrents

qbittorrent-vpn + gluetun-proton

VPN-routed torrents. qbittorrent-vpn uses network_mode: "service:gluetun" — both containers excluded from Watchtower (com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=false).

Compose: /root/stacks/bittorrent-vpn/docker-compose.yml on PCT 101
WebUI: 192.168.2.190:8081 (internal), qbittorrent-vpn.carr-family.org (external)
VPN: ProtonVPN via gluetun
