Stop the Advanced Server Access server agent
The Advanced Server Access server agent on enrolled servers checks in with the system on a regular basis. After four days of no contact from a server, Advanced Server Access hides the server in the dashboard. You can halt communications between a server and Advanced Server Access by stopping the agent on the server. If the agent is restarted before the server's authentication token expires, then it will reappear in the list of enrolled servers.
