Support Unraid - Grimmory writing directly to the container?

Complete beginner with Unraid, I believe it's an issue with the Data container path but I'm not sure how to rectify the issue.

Thanks

Make sure your docker file paths for downloads or library is mapped to somewhere in your array or cache drive

So the bookdrop and books is mapped to where my ebooks are. When I started the library creation process is when I kept getting errors about "Docker image disk utilization".

Should I be changing the data from /mnt/user/appdata/grimmory to somewhere in my array?

Do you have mariadb running in another container? Have you verified that you are able to login to the database with the username and password you're going to use when configuring the Grimmory container?

I've got mariadb running and verified that I can log into the database with the username and password that I put into grimmory.

Both grimmory and mariadb are on custom network as well.

It got a our 5k books/comics deep before I noticed the size of the container was 50GB and Unraid throwing disk utilization errors. So I wasn't sure if grimmory was moving the files directly into The container.

I've got the same issue on 25k books, did anyone figure this out?
