Issue High Disk Throughput (vhostingmng-find)

Hi All,

I'm seeing high disk usage on my Plesk server every morning between 6:15am and about 9:30 - 9:45am, I'm trying to figure out what's causing it and how to reschedule and or deactivate it. Disk usage is around 100MiB/s until around 8:30am when it drops down to around 20-50MiB/s this standards out vs the rest of the day and my client has remarked that the WordPress admin is noticeably slower in the morning (pre 9am).

I can't see anything in the Scheduled Tasks (Cron Jobs) that runs at 6:15, after ssh'ing in and looking at htop I can see the process using the disk is `/opt/psa/admin/bin/vhostingmng-find` (and others starting with `vhostingmng-`.

My questions are, what is this? and where can I change what time it runs? (or turn it off altogether if it's not needed)
