A question only the core development team can answer definitively, but I’ll take a guess:
It may be included in the telemetry information sent back to the core development team. It gives them visibility into how many so-called “unsupported” functions are hosted on users’ systems.
EDIT
I’m running 0.113.1 with Supervisor 234 and here’s what it reports:
20-08-15 16:33:53 ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.docker] Docker logging driver json-file is not supported!
20-08-15 16:34:06 ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.core] Using ‘Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS’ as the OS is not supported
20-08-15 16:34:07 CRITICAL (MainThread) [supervisor.core] System running in a unsupported environment!
FWIW, it’s running just fine so “ERROR” and “CRITICAL” are a bit alarmist (“WARNING” would be sufficient).
The term ‘unsupported’, in this context, means if you report a bug in the GitHub repo, the developers may not investigate/fix it because you’re using an ‘unsupported environment’. Your only recourse will be to switch to a ‘supported environment’ (and see if the bug disappears) or ask the community for assistance.
NOTE
Francisp explained in this post how to eliminate the message “logging driver json-file is not supported”. You must change docker’s logging driver to journald.
Oh yes ! right. I get it. My bad.
But my question is now how it will handle future updates ? Like before this , there was installed version and available version. But now no button to check or update ! Can you clarify about this ?
And How to update HA Supervisor With Docker On Raspbian using shell ? If i dont get access to HA Web UI ?
I just went through this process earlier today. Running a Raspi 4 4gb with a 500gb SSD. Installation went perfect, went to HA Url in my browser, made a new profile, set home location, then went to cloud and signed into my cloud account. After a reboot now my fresh install of HA with no integrations or devices, says something along the lines of cloud service config error and HA hangs while booting and just sits there and says “HA is booting, not everything will be available until it finishes.”
I have tried rebooting the host, rebooting HA and even pulling the power and waiting. Ideas?
The rauc warnings are regarding your OS. You aren’t running HA OS so OTA updates for the OS are disabled. This is not related to updates to HA or any other parts.
