Not sure why but when clicking on the link in the reply I got a Jive error

Cause
Resolution
1. Log onto FMS console 2. Navigate to Administration | Agents | Agent Status dashboard 3. Highlight all Active Directory Agents and Click on Deactivate button at the bottom 4. Navigate to Administration | Agents | Agent Properties dashboard 5. Expand Active Directory folder under Namespace > Type and select ActiveDirectory 6. On the Properties page click on Clone button in Monitored Services section 7. Type in a name for Clone and click on OK button 8. From the Monitored Services drop down list, select the the name from the previous step and click on Edit button 9. Highlight the services for which you do not want the alarm notifications 10. Click on Delete Selected Row(s) button 11. Click on Save Changes button 12. Click on Save button at the bottom in the Properties page to save the changes 13. Navigate to Administration | Agents | Agent Status dashboard 14. Highlight Active Directory Agent and click on Edit Properties button 15.

Click on Start Data Collection button, if necessary, to enable data collection
Repeat steps 14 - 20 for each Active Directory Agent
It turns out that it was a Firefox thing and it wasn't showing all the services because the scroll bar wouldn't work. We had to stretch out the window to see everything and then were able to delete the 2 services. It worked in IE and support said IE is where they have the most issues. He also said Chrome works good and Firefox normally works good.
