ZimaOS 1.6.2 Beta 2 – Docker app data migration blocked by security policy

After updating from ZimaOS 1.6.1 to 1.6.2 beta 2, the “Change application data location” / Docker storage migration feature stopped working.

Issue description

When trying to change the storage path for Docker containers or application data via the ZimaOS UI, the operation fails immediately with the message:

“This request was blocked by security policy”

This feature worked normally in ZimaOS 1.6.1.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open ZimaOS settings

  2. Go to application data location / storage settings

  3. Select a new path for Docker/app data

  4. Confirm migration

  5. Operation is blocked with a security policy error

Environment

  • ZimaOS version: 1.6.2 beta 2

  • Previous version: 1.6.1 (working)

  • Storage: Btrfs volumes under /media

  • Docker apps managed via ZimaOS UI

Additional observations

  • /media mount points are now owned by root:root with 755 permissions

  • Non-root users cannot write to disk roots anymore

  • Storage management appears to be handled by zimaos-local-storage.service

  • Manual Docker operations still work, but UI-based migration is blocked

Impact

  • Breaks Docker application migration between disks

  • Prevents normal NAS workflow for moving app data to other drives

  • Forces manual Docker configuration outside of UI

Question

Is this a deliberate change in the storage/security policy of ZimaOS 1.6.x, or a regression introduced in 1.6.2 beta 2?
