Use this query to find online documentation in the TechNet Library for System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
This customized Bing search query scopes your search on TechNet so that you see results from the Documentation Library for System Center 2012 Configuration Manager only. For example, search results do not include topics from Configuration Manager 2007 or from community resources. It uses the placeholder search text Configuration Manager, which you can replace in the search bar with your own search string or strings, and choice of search operators, to help you narrow the search results.
Use the Find information online link and customize the search by using the following examples.
-
Single search string: To search for topics that contain the search string Endpoint Protection, replace Configuration Manager with Endpoint Protection:
("Endpoint Protection") site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library meta:search.MSCategory(gg682056) -
Combining search strings: To search for topics that contain the search strings Endpoint Protection and monitoring, use the AND operator:
("Endpoint Protection") AND ("monitoring") site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library meta:search.MSCategory(gg682056) -
Alternative search strings: To search for topics that contain the search string Endpoint Protection or monitoring, use the OR operator:
("Endpoint Protection" OR "monitoring") site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library meta:search.MSCategory(gg682056) -
Exclude search strings: To search for topics that contain the search string Endpoint Protection and exclude topics about monitoring, use the NOT operator:
("Endpoint Protection)" NOT ("monitoring") site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library meta:search.MSCategory(gg682056)
Use the following search tips to help you find the information that you need:
-
When you search on a page in TechNet or in the help file (for example, press Ctrl-F1, and enter search terms in the Find box), the results exclude text that is in collapsed sections. To search for text in collapsed sections, expand the sections before you search on the page.
-
Whenever possible, use the TechNet online library rather than downloaded documentation. TechNet contains the most up-to-date information and the information that you are searching for might not be in the downloaded documentation or there might be corrections or additional information online.
-
If you find it easier and faster to search documentation when it is stored locally, you can select multiple topics on TechNet and save them locally. For more information, see the following instructions on the TechNet wiki: How to Build Your Own Custom TechNet Documentation.
The Configuration Manager product group and partner teams use the System Center Configuration Manager Team Blog to provide you with technical information and other news about Configuration Manager and related technologies. Our blog posts supplement the product documentation and support information.
