# Preparation

There are some things we need to do in preparation to install this service.

## Volumes

<details id="bkmrk-media-folders-radarr"><summary>Persistent Data</summary>

This is where the service will store its own application data and ensures we can quickly update the service image.

<p class="callout warning">Ensure your user has permissions to access the folder.</p>

</details><details id="bkmrk-dbus-socket-this-ser"><summary>Dbus Socket</summary>

This service needs access to the Linux Dbus, or [Desktop Bus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Bus#:~:text=D%2DBus%20(short%20for%20%22,such%20as%20GNOME%20and%20KDE.), in order to access Bluetooth, audio and other hardware devices. We will only be providing "read-only" access meaning it cannot make changes.

<p class="callout warning">This is required and the service will fail to start without access.</p>
