Trying to send an alert email, why am I getting error "status=skipped, reason="maxconcurrent limit reached"?

[renanprado96]

I found this error in Scheduler.log.
I was trying to send an email in an alert.

07-07-2016 06:29:06.697 -0300 INFO SavedSplunker - savedsearch_id="admin;search;lab_real 1", user="admin", app="search", savedsearch_name="lab_real 1", status=skipped, reason="maxconcurrent limit reached", scheduled_time=1467883740, window_time=0

Thank you!!

We started seeing this after we recently upgraded to 6.4.2, but not before. Is there any correlation between the two?
