You could either

• disable the Empty Logger Enabled Administrative monitor editing the $JENKINS_HOME/config.xml file adding

<string>com.cloudbees.jenkins.support.impl.cloudbees.EmptyLoggerAdministrativeMonitor</string>

inside the <disabledAdministrativeMonitors> node.
* or upgrade Support Core Plugin to 2.45.1.
* or upgrade CloudBees Support plugin to 3.16 or higher.
