You should get a summary daily report emailed every day and a detailed network report emailed every week. These give simple high-level points as to where you should focus any maintenance work on your SBS 2008 system. While there will often be nothing to worry about, keeping an eye on the gauges of the engine is worthwhile.
The data in the emailed reports is available and can be updated at any time from the Windows SBS Console in the Reports tab. Click on Generate report to create a new report and Generate and e-mail report to also send it via email. In the following example, there are some security alerts that will require attention. Looking at the detailed report will provide more information.
Tip
The daily reports are just that—which means that they are generated each day. The detailed report is only generated once a week, which means that you will need to generate it as it can be up to 6 days old when you are reading it in the console.
