Search in Technet

Find the right article in the Technet website can be a painful exercise.

Often, if you try to use the search engine on the top, you will get a lot of answers especially some discussions from the technet forum (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/...). If you try to do your research with Bing or Google, nobody know what you could discover...


However, Microsoft has implemented and documented for us THE solution :

For SCCM 2012, you can use the following URL :
http://www.bing.com/search?q=%28%22My%20Search%22%29%20site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library%20meta:search.MSCategory%28gg682056%29

If Bing, is already opened, you just have to type  
("My Search") site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library meta:search.MSCategory(gg682056)


Obviously, you replace "My Search" by what you are looking for.
For example, if you are looking for a reference about application supersedence, you can use the following URL :
http://www.bing.com/search?q=%28%22Superseded%22%29%20site:technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library%20meta:search.MSCategory%28gg682056%29



To get more information and to get the search syntax for the other System Center products, just read Information and Support for System Center 2012.



See you soon !
