I see nothing wrong with those steps.

As long as you do not change the Author or Title metadata, calibre only writes to the DB (and updates metadata.opf in the book folder). Viewing should not cause issues.

Having the Content server active, does not cause Calibre issues.

ext4? wasn't there some quirks? (I use ext3)
