> # Disabling Intelligent Storage Services

> ## Detailed Steps

> To disable Intelligent Storage Services in DCNM-SAN for an SSM and free up a group of ports that use these services, follow these steps:

> 1. Expand End Devices and then select SSM Features in the Physical Attributes pane.

> You see the Intelligent Storage Services configuration in the Information pane.

> 2. Click the SSM tab.

> You see the set of configured services in the Information pane.

> 3. Select the row in the table that you want to disable.
> 4. (Optional) Check the Reboot Module on Delete check box if you want to force the card to reboot after disabling the service. This is equivalent to the CLI force option.
> 5. Click Delete Row. The ports that were provisioned for this service become available for provisioning in another service.

> Note If Reboot Module on Delete was checked, then the SSM module reboots.
