LinuxQuestions.org - How to silence sysstat-collect.service?

Good afternoon!

The sar tool collects load values every 10 minutes on my Oracle Linux 8.3 via the service sysstat-collect.service. It fills /var/log/messages with

Quote:

systemd[1]: sysstat-collect.service: Succeeded.
systemd[1]: Started system activity accounting tool.

every 10 minutes. That's annoying, I want to silence it. I've already tried three possible solutions which did not work:

1. Adding the override

Code:

[Service]

StandardOutput=null

to the systemd unit

2. Adding the override

Code:

[Service]

LogLevelMax=warning

to the systemd unit

3. Changing the command to

Code:

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c '/usr/lib64/sa/sa1 1 1 > /var/log/sysstat-collect'

in the systemd unit

Any ideas?

Thanks,
SH
