Why CSF is showing these as errors?

/usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log:
==> cpsrvd 11.48.0.11 started
==> cpsrvd: loading security policy....Done
==> cpsrvd: Setting up native SSL support ... Done
==> cpsrvd: transferred port bindings
==> cpsrvd: bound to ports
==> cpsrvd 11.48.0.11 started
==> cpsrvd: loading security policy....Done
==> cpsrvd: Setting up native SSL support ... Done
==> cpsrvd: transferred port bindings

Started getting these as well with WHM 11.60. Don't know exactly why but definitely annoying.

Adding this to csf.logignore seems to do the job:

^==> cpsrvd.*

Cheers,

they are not errors, they are informative messages
Cpanel / WHM by default adds cpsrvd to the Dormant services [?]

Use of the dormant service feature will decrease memory use. When a service is idle for 5 minutes, it will unload itself from memory, leaving a tiny “listening” service in place. The reduction in memory consumption is offset by a delay in fulfilling the initial request when dormant since full service must then be activated.
the way to stop them is to whm/server configuration /tweak settings / software & uncheck cpsrvd in dormant services section.
You only get the "warning" message because someone/something is accessing Cpanel / whm
