In that case you'll have to wait until the oldest violation falls out of the rolling 30 day window, which could take anywhere from 0-27 days, depending on when your violations occurred.</P> <P>Regardless, indexing will continue, and you might want to decrease the amount of logs that Splunk indexes, in order to not get more violations. Or consider a license upgrade.</P> <P>More info on licensing:</P> <P><A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/HowSplunklicensingworks">docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/HowSplunklicensingworks</A></P> <P>Hope this helps,</P> <P>Kristian</P> Thu, 07 Jun 2012 14:58:14 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Splunk-license-violation/m-p/69716#M13988 kristian_kolb 2012-06-07T14:58:14Z
