Fail2Ban management in Ver 21.3

Hi,

The foll. note has been sent to me reg Fail2Ban mgmt:
========
Please note:
Your server still uses parts of the old firewall/fail2ban system. Support for the old firewall management was dropped with KeyHelp 21.1.
To keep your fail2ban configuration compatible with upcoming KeyHelp updates, either enable the current firewall management introduced with KeyHelp 20.3 or remove the following configuration directives from the top of the file /etc/fail2ban/jail.d/keyhelp.local and add them back in another appropriate fail2ban configuration file. Restart the fail2ban service afterwards.
---
[DEFAULT]
chain = fail2ban
========

Even after moving the existing (one) config directive from /etc/fail2ban/jail.d/keyhelp.local to /etc/fail2ban/jail.local and emptying the keyhelp.local file, the UI still doesn't show the blocks. Do I need to do anything else to make the new UI work?

Thank you,
Kumar
