grep doesn't do that, you need a language which can remember things, like awk.

RS="" tells awk to process text in blocks separated by two newlines.

!/Service is disabled/ prints every block which doesn't contain "Service is disabled".

Code:
$ awk -v RS="" -v ORS="\n\n" '!/Service is disabled/' data

Service name: Bot_Serv2
Service is enabled
Preferred instances: botqa2,botqa3

app::nopaste::service

App::Nopaste::Service(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				App::Nopaste::Service(3pm)

NAME

       App::Nopaste::Service - base class for nopaste services

SYNOPSIS

	   package App::Nopaste::Service::Shadowcat;
	   use base 'App::Nopaste::Service';

	   sub uri { "http://paste.scsys.co.uk/" }

DESCRIPTION

       "App::Nopaste::Service" defines a generic interface for uploading to nopaste sites. It provides a default interface to that of the POE
       Pastebot.

METHODS

   nopaste
       This is the outermost method called by App::Nopaste and other clients. You should not override this method, as it will (XXX: eventually)
       perform canonicalization of arguments (such as "lang") for you.

   run args -> (OK, message)
       This is the outermost method you should override. You'll be passed a hash of arguments. The only arguments you should pay attention to are:

       text
	   The body of text to paste.

       desc
	   A short (one-line) summary of the paste.

       nick
	   The name of the person performing the paste.

       chan
	   The IRC channel to which the paste belongs.

       lang
	   The programming language of the body of text.

       private
	   If false, the paste will be public (default).

   get mech, args
       This should "get" the form to paste using the provided WWW::Mechanize object. By default it does just that. See "uri" below.

   uri
       If you only need to call "mech->get(uri)" then you may define this method to provide the URI of the nopaste service.

   fill_form mech, args
       This should have the WWW::Mechanize fill in the form using the arguments, and submit it.

   return mech, args
       This should look at "WWW::Mechanize->content" to find the URI to the pasted text.
