Hi,

could you post the lines before this entry? The script checks your LXC containers for some old entries, maybe this is resulting from there.

Hi fba,

I had a container which had rocky os on it, I destroyed it and the error has now gone.

Thank you.
 
Following the PVE code, the message is related to LXC only. So in your case ignoring it would mostly likely be ok anyway.
But good and quick solution ;)
