I would like to delete the log file from occasionally.

When I recreate the nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer it shows Nextloud_Mount is set. But the nextcloud-aio-nextcloud container doesnt have anything set in Nextcloud_Mount when inspecting the container.
If Nextcloud_Mount is set in nextcloud-aio-nextcloud will the option local be listed automatically in External Storage again?
I have spend quite some time reading threw posts and the documentation but I dont understand what Iam doing wrong.
So hopefully this post can help me understand things more regarding nextcloud-aio.
