Applies To: System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager, System Center 2012 - Operations Manager, System Center 2012 SP1 - Operations Manager

The Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) collects information about how you use Microsoft programs and about some of the issues that you might encounter. Microsoft uses this information to improve the products and features you use most often and to help solve issues. Participation in the program is strictly voluntary.

During setup of System Center 2012 – Operations Manager Reporting, on the Operational Data Reports page, you have the option to join CEIP. If you elect to join CEIP, Operations Manager Reporting collects a summary of how Operations Manager is being used and sends reports to Microsoft on a weekly basis. Microsoft uses these reports to improve the quality of its management packs and Operations Manager. You can view the contents of these operational data reports (ODRs) by creating a Microsoft ODR Report.

Note

Before configuring operational data reports, make sure that Operations Manager Reporting is installed, and that the management server has access to the Internet so that reports can be sent to Microsoft.
