Why am I seeing "Pool Warning - Correct by midnight to avoid violation Learn more This pool contains slave(s) with 2 warnings"?

Hi Guys

I have a question regarding a pool warning. I exceeded our license twice: once of the 13th and again on the 14th. Since then, all has been fine. We're now on the 18th, so it's been 4 days since we exceeded the license, however, I'm still seeing this error:

Pool Warning - Correct by midnight to avoid violation Learn more  This pool contains slave(s) with 2 warnings  

it has said this for the last few days and nothing so far has happened, I was hoping someone could advise if this is just a bug or explain what the issue is here. We're running Splunk 6.3.0

Thanks in advance for any help received

If you exceed your licensed daily volume on any one calendar day, you will get a violation warning. The message persists for 14 days. If you have 5 or more warnings on an Enterprise license or 3 warnings on a Free license in a rolling 30-day period, you are in violation of your license, and search will be disabled for the offending pool(s). Other pools will remain searchable and be unaffected, as long as the total license usage from all pools does not exceed the total license quota for the license master.
