Since the swarm-NFS migration two chains copied the same bytes: svc-bkp-nfs-2-local
reads the export from the NFS server's own filesystem, while baudolo on the manager
copied the same files again THROUGH the NFS mount. That was a migration leftover -
svc-bkp-nfs-2-local arrived in adb8bcf69 (2026-07-10) and nobody taught the older role
to step back - and the role README already forbade it as a rule nobody enforced. In the
DR drill the duplicate costs three times over: the pulled tree, the device copy and the
restore root.

swarm_nfs_backed() in utils/storage/nfs.py is now the single answer to "does the swarm
NFS rewrite back this volume". plugins/filter/compose_volumes.py (which performs the
rewrite) and this role's backup_volume lookup (which feeds baudolo's
--volumes-no-backup-required) both call it, so the two cannot drift. On the current tree
that excludes 83 of 158 type: volume entries.

Four conditions keep the exclusion from ever dropping a volume nobody else captures:

  * a manager-pinned role's volumes are not on the export (web-app-seaweedfs holds
    Nextcloud's object store, deliberately node-local per its meta/services.yml)
  * a role forcing another mode via compose_mode_force is not on the export either.
    That override is per role (roles/sys-svc-compose/defaults/main.yml:3), so it is
    resolved per role inside the predicate from roles/<id>/vars/main.yml, not read once
    from ambient scope. web-app-bigbluebutton pins compose statically;
    web-app-matrix computes it, and a value the predicate cannot resolve counts as
    forcing - unknown mode keeps the volume backed up
  * an entry opting out with nfs: false stays node-local
  * the exclusion applies at all only when the svc-bkp-nfs-2-local inventory group is
    populated. That role enters a play by group membership alone
    (tasks/groups/svc-bkp-roles.yml:19-22) and svc-storage-nfs-server ships a variant
    with nfs_backup: {enabled: false}, so without the gate an export whose repository
    nobody deployed would lose 83 volumes from both capture paths

Every condition fails toward the old double capture: wasted space, never lost data.
Compose mode is untouched - the exclusion cannot fire without swarm and an nfs backend.

DEPLOYMENT_MODE and storage are templated through the lookup's templar, because
group_vars/all/18_swarm.yml:2 defines the mode as a Jinja expression; comparing the raw
source string would silently disable the whole exclusion.

Twelve new tests pin the contract, including the two failure modes that would be
invisible in production: an untemplated mode, and an exclusion without an export
repository. Both were verified by mutation - removing either guard makes its test fail.
