[Koha] Question on Cronjob for building holds queue

OK, I found out a difference between this and the other instances: The
parameter RealTimeHoldsQueue was set to enable, whereas in the instances
without the error message it was set to disable.

Should I try to disable the setting here as well to avoid the error message?

Best regards,
Anke
