Importing Management Packs

Hello,
We have SCOM 2012 SP1 on our live environment and we are in the process of trying to mirror it in our test environment. I have installed SCOM in the test environment and I want to copy our management packs from live.
When I try to import the xml files I am getting the following errors;
This management pack cannot be imported.
: XSD verification failed for the management pack. [Line: 6, Position: 8]
The element 'Identity' has invalid child element 'PublicKeyToken'.
Can anyone offer advice?
Downloading the latest versions isn't an option as we need to mirror our live setup.
Many thanks

Incorrect strings when importing Management Pack

I have created a Management Pack for Operations Manager 2012 R2 using the Visual Studio Authoring Extensions. When I import my MP into Operations Manager, I see incorrect strings and my Group Views display incorrectly. I've tried completely uninstalling
my MP, restarting the SCOM instance and nothing makes this problem go away.
If I use Powershell and get-scomgroups I see groups with incorrect names, names that do not exist in my MP. These groups go away when I uninstall the MP so there is some connection. I'm at the point where I feel like re-initializing the SCOM SQL databases
is my best route. Is there any way to figure out where these orphaned text strings and groups are coming from and delete them?
Thanks,
Mike Markley

Yes, VSAE won't let you reuse an ID. It is quite strange, if I run get-scomgroups from a PowerShell prompt I get a response that doesn't make any sense.

Had a same problem. Fresh 2012 R2 Server & SCOM install. SCOM UR4 installed before importing any MP:s.
When I tried to import Core OS MP:s I got same error message:

Adding a Relationship to a Group of a Imported Management Pack using PowerShell

I want to add a relationship to a existing group in SCOM so that more types of object can be added to the group. How to do this? I've managed to do this but don't know how to specify the "containment" relation in powershell. Please advise. Thanks!

$sourceClass = Get-SCOMClass -Name "GroupPopulation.TestNewVerTemplateGroup"
$targetClass = Get-SCOMClass -NAme "Microsoft.Windows.Computer"
$relationshipClass.Abstract = $false;
$relationshipClass.Base = ???
# There is some existing relationship in the group. If it is used, then the script works.
# $relationshipClass.Base = $MP.GetRelationships()[0].Base;
$relationshipClass.DisplayName = "sample relationship";

Reporting Looking for Management Packs

Hello,
I am running SCOM 2012 R2 UR4. I wanted to setup a scheduled report to show me a list of computers in a critical health state. But when I go to the Reporting tab, it is asking me to import management packs. Which MP's do I need for Reporting?

I got this issue once. I had installed SCOM reporting components but the reports were not showing up.
If you disable the Windows Firewall on reporting server, reports will populate in the SCOM operations console. Another way is by creating a new inbound rule on the Reporting server, allowing communication for TCP port # 80 and 443. see if that helps.

Uninstall all management packs related to System Center Virtual Machine Manager and then run Setup again.

I uninstalled all System Center VVM related management Packs, but still received "Uninstall all management packs related to System Center Virtual Machine Manager and then run Setup again.".
Think I got them all. But how can I figure out which Management pack is still installed and has to be removed.
Thanks for your reply

The selected management pack cannot be deleted.

I'm having problems deleting a custom management pack in SCOM 2012. The error is the following:
The selected management pack cannot be deleted. This might be because it is currently being deleted or it has already been deleted. If you think this message is in error, try again later.
Any ideas?

I face the same problem in SCOM 2012 SP1
The selected management pack cannot be deleted. This might be because it is currently being deleted or it has already been deleted. If you think this message is in error, try again later.
I only have the problem with one unsealed MP.
I can delete other sealed MPs and import them again. So I hope my environment with DB is working well.
I also have deleted all overrides for this pack (in the same MP/xml because it is unsealed), restarted the DB-Server and the SCOM Management Server and also started the SCOM console with switch "/clearcache". All without success
Any idea how I can remove this MP from my SCOM environment.
Remark:
I tried the idea from AndreasZuckerhut
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/166c3560-c3ae-4510-8e25-1b6f1b57e3bc/unable-to-delete-mp-in-scom-2012?forum=operationsmanagermgmtpacks
created an own MP with the same ID but a newer version and started the "Import Management Pack" from the SCOM -Management GUI.
This time I got the Import-error called "The transaction log for database 'OperationsManager' is full due to 'ACTIVE_TRANSACTION'. I also see the same eventlog entry 9002 on the SQL-Server System. Could this be also an hint to
the upper problem of an failed deletion of an MP? A guide how to solve this is on
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/380879/About-transaction-log-and-its-truncation-in-SQL-Se . But I not tried it yet whether it solves the problem. I will ask an SQL expert first and will note the result here later.

SCOM management packs upgrade

Hi,
When we upgrade a management pack in SCOM e.g. the OS management packs, Does it retains the overrides applied on rules and monitors in the previous version or we had to apply the overrides again on the latest imported management pack? Please advice.
Thanks
Daya Ram

Just keep in mind when you upgrade a management pack to read the management pack guide which is bundled with it.
Your overrides will be kept in a different management pack so no worries there but the creator of the MP can change the standard overrides in it's pack which could have an impact on your monitoring.
When upgrading an MP always check the MP guide and especially the "What's new" section to get a quick overview of the different changes in the MP.
It's doing common things uncommonly well that brings succes. Check out my SCOM link blog:

Where do the Management Pack Files go once you import them

Hello
Hopefully this is a simple question, I may just be missing some thing obvious
I have SCOM 2007 R2
When I download and run the MSI to unpack he MP, I understand where it extract the files. I then go to SCOM Console and Import the MP, not problems so far.
However I would expect the MP import process to also place a copy of the MP in the "C:\Program Files\System Center Operations Manager 2007" folder. However on several occasion when I have needed to point/find a Management Pack for various reasons, the
MP or MPs do not appear to be in this folder. I guess I could always go back to the location where the MP is extracted from the MSI and reference them there. However I thought they should all reside in the "C:\Program Files\System
Center Operations Manager 2007" folder as a matter of course.
Any advice, most welcome please
Thanks
AanotherUser

Hi AanotherUser,
It depends on a management pack, some of them place a copy of .mp files to C: drive, some don't.

Cannot import sealed management pack from unsealed management pack

We have unsealed management pack imported to our scsm 2012. It has an additional dropdown list with list. But now we are now going to seal it but when we are going to import it now, it says it cannot be imported because there is already unsealed management
pack with the same name. If we are going to delete that unsealed managmeent pack, we may lost are data for that field. Is there any way for this?

As workaround you can export data to temp location (XML or something like this), remove unsealed, import new sealed and import data back from temp location. This can be easy done with SMLets
SCSMSolutions
email: freemanru (at) gmail (dot) com
I'm having the same issue as the original poster. I foolishly have been working with an unsealed management pack in our SCSM 2012 SP1, UR2 environment that contains a list of "Locations") We need this to be sealed so it will not only sync to
the DW, but also so we can reference it with new templates/workflows.
I'm hoping for an answer from Anton on more detailed instructions for this workaround, to help a newbie to SCSM and SMLets.

Exported SCSM Default ServiceManager.RunbookActivity.Configuration Sealed management pack but unable to import later

Hi,
I exported SCSM default ServiceManager.RunbookActivity.Configuration Sealed management pack and remove it from SCSM. Later when I tried to import back the xml file it shows me this error.
Is there anyway to reinstate the original Sealed management pack?
Thanks
Jeron@Microsoft Technet

This error message is often related to missing the tag ManagementPublicKeyToken within the category tag. If you seal a MP but without defined the token then Service Manager will complain like this. And obviously the token and key must match.
What happens if you insert your keytoken value into the MP, seal it with your own key and then import it?
Somewhat like below:
<Categories>
<Category>
<ManagementPackVersion>xxx</ManagementPackVersion>
<ManagementPublicKeyToken>tokenhere</ManagementPublicKeyToken>
