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.
