BUG: Force Refresh All metadata causes server to report Indirect Access

Server Version#: Version 1.25.3.5409
Player Version#: Version 4.72.0

This has been happening for a while so decided to report it here. I weekly force refresh all my libraries metadata 1 by 1 doing my TV library first and then my Movie library as I like to get the latest and greatest metadata on my server. They are mid sized libraries with 500+ shows and 3000+ movies.

When I do this my server almost immediately reports a yellow icon for it and indirect access, see screenshot below.

Once metadata refresh is complete it then reports direct access as normal again.

Is anyone else seeing this ? I suspect the plex media server service is just under pressure although my underlining OS is not. Plex is running on dedicated hardware (not a VM) running ubuntu 20.04 with Intel i7-9750H (12) @ 4.500GHz and 32GB RAM and my media is on a NAS with direct mounts to it over a wired network link.

As I say, this only happening when a force metadata refresh on the libraries is happening. Logs can be provided via a DM if needed.
