Solution

To disable a service so that it will no longer be monitored on a single device, follow these steps:
  1. Click on the All Devices view in the navigation pane to the left.
  2. Click on the device you want to modify.
  3. Click on the Monitoring tab to display the list of service monitors.
  4. Click on the ON/OFF toggle switch to the right under the Monitored heading.
  5. Select the check box for that service. Click the SERVICE MONITORING button from the top bar and click Scan Now.
The service will show as Disabled within a few seconds.
 

Alternatively, if you don't want a service being monitored on your devices, you can disable it under Service Management. See how to Disable services.

To remove services from a set of devices that fall into a specific filter, you may use a Service Template.
