    Hi @jason tan,

    Thank you for posting in this community.

    1.I know you don't need InfoPath forms services, but InfoPath forms services will not be supported until after July 14, 2024, when support will end.

    (Reference: Support update for InfoPath Forms Services in Microsoft 365)

    We don't have a way to shut down this service at the moment. I note that this error message is just a warning, and if you don't use InfoPath forms services and it doesn't affect you much, you can choose to ignore it and not worry about it.

    If you really need to hide this information, you can try to configure a state service to solve this problem.

    2.Maybe you have already tried this, but you can follow the steps below to start the Net.Pipe Listener Adapter service on the server again:

    Then click on the problem in the Review problems and solutions page to go to the problem details page, and then re-analyze the problem to see if it still exists.

    3.You can create new content databases and move certain site collections to new content databases to alleviate the problem of some content databases being too large.

    However, we recommend a maximum of 500 content databases in a farm.

    Before you create a new content database, I recommend that you be clear about the limitations of content databases.

    In this article are the steps to create a new content database: Add content databases in SharePoint Server.

    In this post are the steps to move a site collection to a new content database: Move site collections between databases in SharePoint Server.

    This message: "Some content databases are growing too large." is a reminder that some of your content databases are over 100GB and most likely have not reached the 200GB limit. You can follow the steps below to resolve this issue.

    In short, you don't have to worry too much about the information in your SharePoint health analyzer. As long as your SharePoint is doing its business and these issues don't affect you too much, you can choose to ignore them. Relax!
