I get this warning in vdsm logs with ovirt 3.6 installed on CentOS

The service is effectively running but disabled in systemd. In
/etc/lvm/lvm.conf I have :
use_lvmetad = 1
Can someone please advise on how to solve this?
You see lvm warnings in vdsm debug logs, this is not a warning, and
you can safely
ignore it.
If you like to stop these warnings, you can stop and mask lvm2-lvmetad
and disable
it in lvm.conf:
systemctl stop lvm2-lvmetad.service lvm2-lvmetad.socket
systemctl mask lvm2-lvmetad.service lvm2-lvmetad.socket
And disable it in lvm.conf:
use_lvmetad = 0
This has no effect on vdsm, which already ignore lvmetad using command line
configuration (look for --config in vdsm.log).
We are considering adding this to vdsm installation.
