Description
Start Nexus and leave it for some time. Nexus logs will contain redundant lines about "unsupported" repositories, like this example below:

As M1 repo is unsupported, it's prefix list will be un-initialised, and that will be considered as "error" by logic, hence, every hour (every "tick") auto-routing will try to update it, but will write out this log above instead. Check the log timestamps, and you can see it was nagging every hour.
Note: affects version set to 2.5 but 2.4 might be affected too.
