disk_monitor: Got SIGALRM - What does this mean?

[Penguinapple1]

I got this message on my Asus RT-AC68U router last night - disk_monitor: Got SIGALRM - what does this mean exactly? I noticed around 20 seconds after the message in the log, my laptop connected to the network. Running latest merlin firmware.

I have this message as well, anyone seen this?

This is a check that the router does to know if there is a USB device plugged in
This is normal

normally he'll do it a few days, after the message will stop

Yes. Just ignore it.

BTW There's a search box at the top right of the page:
