This month we have fewer doc updates but they do contain some important additional information or corrections to help you be more successful when you download and test the Release Candidate. We will continue to add more information for Configuration Manager as we get that information from the product group and in response to customer feedback. To help you find the right information, use the search portal for System Center 2012 Configuration Manager. Note that we are writing for the released product, rather than for any prerelease version, such as Beta 2 or the Release Candidate. As such, there might be some discrepancies with the prerelease version that you are testing and the documentation. If you are testing a prerelease version, remember to check the release notes (link from Setup and Help) for any issues that are specific to that version. We value customer feedback and try to incorporate it when possible. Although we can’t promise to make the docs perfect for everybody, we are committed to continual improvement.
