Bind suddenly starts responding clients with servfail

Hello List,

I'm running a few BIND servers, but lately one of my servers suddenly starts responding to clients with servfail for every request from the clients, and BIND doesn't respond to the rndc or statistics interface anymore.

My logs for client-channel show me this:
25-Apr-2020 21:52:04.501 client @XX XX.37#2921 (google.dk<http://google.dk/>): no more recursive clients (1000/900/1000): quota reached

I've removed all the dns traffic from the server, and the quota is still reached after 6+ hours?

Do you guys have some clue what all this is about? - Or any suggestions where to look for any further information?

I'm running BIND 9.16.1 on CentOS 7:
