Noticing a number of warnings relating to LMDirective, not sure what these are related to and how to remedy.

This is a harmless message and is caused by mismatched versions of Splunk on the license server and peers. You can either update Splunk to the same versions or update the log level on each indexer with "./splunk set log-level LMDirective -level ERROR”

Thanks @aaronkorn this is the correct answer. this should be marked as answered.
This message popped up after I went from 6.1.1 to 6.20 across my internal splunk infrastructure.
My indexers, search head, deploy server, master are all 6.2.0.
My heavy forwarders are still a mix of 6.1.1, 6.1.5, and 6.2.0.
The heavy forwarders all report this error. It is really chatty.
Getting the same issue. But it is months ago, I upgraded the indexer and search head to 6.2 and now this problem comes up. Hope upgrading the heavy forwarders will solve the problem.
I am getting this same issue. I think it has to do with the fact that some of my search heads are ant 6.2 and my indexers are not. this may be a feature that is not backwards compatible????
