Child services (Kiwix, Ollama, Qdrant, Flatnotes, Kolibri) are created via the
Docker socket, so their bind mounts use a HOST path. That path was baked into
the services table at seed time from NOMAD_STORAGE_PATH (default
/opt/project-nomad/storage) — and NOMAD_STORAGE_PATH wasn't even present in
management_compose.yaml, so it always fell back to the default.
Result: relocating the admin storage volume in compose (e.g.
/mnt/big/storage:/app/storage) moved the admin's own data but left child apps
mounting the old, now-empty /opt/project-nomad/storage. Kiwix would come up
with no content. (#938)
- Add _resolveHostStorageRoot(): inspect the admin's own container, find the
bind backing /app/storage, and use its host Source as the single source of
truth (cached). Falls back to NOMAD_STORAGE_PATH/default if it can't be
inspected.
- Add _applyHostStorageRoot(): rewrite the host-side prefix of each storage bind
to that root. No-op when it already matches the seeded prefix, so default
installs are unaffected.
- Apply it in _createContainer (covers installs + dependency recursion) and in
the Kiwix library-mode recreate path.
- management_compose.yaml: add an explicit NOMAD_STORAGE_PATH knob and rewrite
the comments so the admin volume, env var, and disk-collector volume that must
agree are spelled out.
