I am trying to disable the daily report that is sent out at midnight.
In the GUI I have set "Send daily reports" to No but that didn't help. Any ideas?
 
Hi,

you disabled with that option the admin report.
To disable the daily quarantine reports go to: Configuration/Spam Detector/Quarantine: Report Style and set "No Reports".

No, I am talking about
Proxmox Status Report with cluster status, incoming mail, etc.
 
As mentioned by Sommer, it is the admin report I want disabled. However the setting doesn't seem to work.
 
oh and also
Code:
systemctl stop pmgreport.timer

Bug created. Thanks. I worked around the problem by renaming the pmgreport binary.

Use at your OWN discretion.


I wanted to help those who need something more prescriptive.

I've now placed the following entries within a script called "stopdailyreport", placing it within the directory "/usr/local/bin". The script consists of three (3) cmd lines:

systemctl stop pmgreport.timer
systemctl disable pmgreport.timer
systemctl mask --now pmgreport.timer


This *should* work - bug or no bug - to ensure that your Daily Report(s) does not initiate.

Confirm after performing the abovementioned commands.
Follow by using the command "reboot"; confirm using "systemctl status pmgreport.timer".

Output should look like this:

root@proxmox:~# systemctl status pmgreport.timer
* pmgreport.timer
Loaded: masked (Reason: Unit pmgreport.timer is masked.)
Active: inactive (dead)
Trigger: n/a


If you feel that you want to ensure that these commands are performed at startup each and every time, use the attached files.

Place both files under the "/usr/local/bin" directory; enter "chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/stopdaily*".
Confirm files through the following commands:

root@proxmox:/etc/rc3.d# ls -alF /usr/local/bin
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 28 10:54 ./
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Jul 15 2021 ../
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 346 Mar 28 10:54 stopdaily*

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 123 Mar 28 10:51 stopdaily.t*

Execute the command "/usr/local/bin/stopdaily", and should see the following output:

root@proxmox:/usr/local/bin# ./stopdaily
Begin task 'stopdaily'...
** Removing files
** Copying files
Task is complete.
