Failed to start Proxmox VE replication runner while no replication set

[Sasha]

Hi, guys.

Every reboot of host shows Aug 28 08:07:05 hq systemd[1]: Failed to start Proxmox VE replication runner. But I don't use any replications,
So is it possible to disable that tries of starting that service?

Hi,
what is the output of pveversion -v and systemctl status pvesr.service pvesr.timer? That service shouldn't even exist anymore since Proxmox VE 7.1, as it got replaced by pvescheduler.service.

I guess I should remove it /etc/systemd/system/pvesr.timer Right?

 

[fiona]

Yes, IIRC you can also use systemctl disable pvesr.timer to do so.
