Mass Export Service Manager 2012 [SCSM2012] Management Packs

Backup All Unsealed Management Packs

In preparation to upgrade our instance from SCSM 2012 R2 to SCSM 2016, I wanted to backup all management packs in the current instance.

Here is a PowerShell script to export all of the management packs to a backup directory. Alter at your pleasure.

Import-Module smlets

Get-SCManagementPack|where-object {! $_.Sealed}|Export-SCManagementPack -TargetDirectory c:\backup

This script requires smlets. You can get smlets from here: http://smlets.codeplex.com/

Use at your own risk, I take no responsibility or infer any warranty on this code.

SCSM Data Warehouse Cube / Dimensions do not process - Event 33573 / 35574

Recently I received an alert from our SQL server "OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC Error: Operation Cancelled HY008.

SQl Upgrade Error - Access to the Path C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\License Terms\SQLServer2012_License_SQLBI_1033.rtf is denied

SQL Upgrade Error - Access to License Denied Ahh a wonderful time to experience an error, when you are upgrading SQL, during a limited window for downtime. Sop much for the weekend plans eh? No worries, this one is easy. In my case I received the following when downgrading an edition for a reporting Server that houses several instances. After the first one processed, I received this error: If I browse to that path, we notice the file is set to read only. Easy enough, lets un-check read only and try again. Success! I had to do this for each instance install. So if you have multiple instances be prepared to set the file to read/write each time.
