Use the General tab of the Configuration Manager 2007 Status Reporting Properties dialog box to specify status reporting settings for server and client components.
 Caution |
|---|
| The default reporting settings are appropriate for most environments and should be changed with caution. Increasing the level of status reporting by choosing to report all status details can increase the load on the Configuration Manager 2007 site. Decreasing the level of status reporting can limit the usefulness of the status summarizers. |
