Index files are still created on my Synology DSM7 although the pkg-SynoFinder-fileindexd service is disabled and not running :
$ systemctl status pkg-SynoFinder-fileindexd
● pkg-SynoFinder-fileindexd.service - pkg-SynoFinder-fileindexd
Loaded: loaded (/usr/local/lib/systemd/system/pkg-SynoFinder-fileindexd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
$
There is also a synoindexd service which is not running :
$ systemctl status synoindexd
● synoindexd.service - synoindexd
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/synoindexd.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
$
However, there is a pkgctl-SynoFinder service running :
$ systemctl status pkgctl-SynoFinder
● pkgctl-SynoFinder.service - SynoFinder's service unit
Loaded: loaded (/usr/local/lib/systemd/system/pkgctl-SynoFinder.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: active (exited) since Thu 2022-08-25 13:04:10 CEST; 10 months 2 days ago
Main PID: 23098 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
CGroup: /SynoFinder.slice/pkgctl-SynoFinder.service
This solution here says the pkgctl-SynoFinder service is needed by the Synology Drive Service but I see NO dependency here :
$ systemctl cat pkgctl-SynoFinder | egrep -i "drive|indexd"
$ systemctl -a | grep -i drive
syno-notify-bundle-drive-update.service loaded active exited Notify bundle drive update after bootup done
syno-notify-idle-drive.service loaded active exited Notify all idle drives after bootup done
syno-notify-unsupport-drive.service loaded active exited Notify system is detected for unsupported drive
$
Therefore, can I safely stop and disable the pkgctl-SynoFinder service ?
