Not an issue.
Server administrators need to be part of the view-only administrator group to have access to global configuration rights. What you are seeing is a warning if the shell finds someone that has full control over a server object, but is not in the view-only group.

If you grant a machine account full control on a server object,
get-ExchangeAdministrator will think of it as a server administrator and return it in the list of Exchange Administrators. However since the machine account is not in the view-only group, the warning that you mentioned is given. This warning is informational and can be ignored for machine accounts. You will always see this for the passive node of a CCR Cluster as well.

Thanks
