Search head license violations

I'm using the forwarder license on my search head. I've disabled all inputs, and any extra apps. Yet I still get license violations. 7.1MB was indexed yesterday, for example.

What's the magic to make this stop happening?

Splunk 4.1.4 x64 on SuSE Linux.

Hi, maybe you can run

>splunk list monitor 

on search head, to get all active monitored inputs

Do you happen to have any summary indexes?

I had the same issue where I had a summary index that wasn't named "summary", and it counted against my license..

I ended up setting up my search head as a forwarder to my two indexers and it seemed to resolve the issue.
