Is there a way to suppress logging when running an OpenVPN client?

I get these messages every hour or so:

Log level can be reduced on the webui, same page where you configure the OpenVPN client. Make sure you are also not overriding it with a "verb x" entry in the custom config section - remove it if there is one.
