By default the Managed Availability is looking for a service MsMpSvc which is Forefront Endpoint Protection, but cannot find it becuase it is not installed. One of my customers has Exchange 2013 deployed and is having this issue. How can I disable the check for FEP ? We are using a different antivirus and antimalware vendor than Forefront.
