How to: Disable Application Components (SQL Server Management Studio)
Using the Properties dialog box for an instance of Notification Services, you can disable components of an individual application. Disabling a component stops the processing of the component.
The following procedure shows how to disable one or more components of an application by using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
To disable parts of an instance of Notification Services
In Object Explorer, expand Notification Services.
Right-click the instance of Notification Services and select Properties.
In the left pane, select the Applications page.
If the instance hosts multiple applications, select the application you want to modify from the Applications box.
The table below the Applications box lists each component of the application. The table includes the server and name for each component, which allows you to identify each component. The Status column shows the current enabled or disabled status of the component, and the Enabled column contains a check box for changing the status.
Important
Individual components can have a status of Enabled even if the instance is disabled. Disabling an instance sets a value in the instance database. Disabling application components sets values in the application database.
In the table, find the component you want to disable and clear the check box in the Enabled column. Repeat this step for each component you want to disable.
When you are finished, click OK to apply the changes.
