Applies To: System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager, System Center 2012 - Operations Manager, System Center 2012 SP1 - Operations Manager
When you upgrade to System Center 2012 – Operations Manager, there are optional features, such as a stand-alone operations console, web console, Reporting server, and ACS collector that you might want to upgrade. If they were not already installed in the System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 management group, you might want to install the System Center 2012 – Operations Manager versions after you have completed upgrade.
Important
If you have a Reporting server installed on a root management server (RMS) that does not meet the supported configuration for System Center 2012 – Operations Manager, you will not be able to upgrade it. Instead, you can install a System Center 2012 – Operations Manager Reporting server after you have upgraded your management group.
