Disabling multistore, with no vfilers?

We have an HA pair we just upgraded to 8.1.4, multistore is enabled  but I don't see any vfilers besides vfiler0. I'd like to turn multistore off, if only to stop these syslog entries that are filling up our logs:

Mon May  5 15:41:01 PDT [acp-vfiler@filer1b:kern.cli.cmd:debug]: Command line input: the command is 'vfiler run acp-vfiler'. The full command line is 'vfiler run acp-vfiler arp -s 192.168.3.239 0:50:cc:65:3b:ef'. ^M

.... [every few seconds]

Has anyone disabled multistore to stop these messages? Will disabling multistore disrupt vfiler0?

Our ACP cabling has some minor issues, although all shelves can be reached with at least one path:

I think this is what any filer normally looks like with multistore enabled and no vfilers in use (vfiler0 is the "root/dom0/etc" vfiler):

vfiler0                          running
   ipspace: default-ipspace

Hi Wiley,

In if you have FAS 3040, 3070, 31xx, 60xx then you need to remove the license of multistore using command:

license delete multistore

For all other filers please disable below option:

licensed_feature.multistore.enable off

Hope this will address your issue.

Thanks,

Amit
