Management Pack Import Failing RRS feed

  • Question

  • I'm working on creating a connector with SCOM to pull UNIX devices.  When trying to Import the Microsoft.Unix.Library.mp or the Microsoft.Linux.Library.mp it's failing with the error...

    The management pack import failed. 
    Errors (1):
    Could not load management pack [ID=Microsoft.Unix.Library, KeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, Version=7.4.4515.0]. The management pack was not found in the store.
    : An error occurred while loading management pack f04cb5b9-5c49-4585-5c15-eea06e35d1a1 from the database

    I did some searching for this error but was unable to quickly find a solution.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • This is a SCOM specific Management Pack.  I already have the Service Manager Operations Manager Connector Library Management Pack imported.  What other MP would it depend on?  How can I determine what might be needed?

    The error message is telling you which management pack is missing from Service Manager. You'll need to find the Microsoft.SystemCenter.OperationsManager.Library.mp management pack (the sealed one) and import it into Service Manager. I'm afraid I don't know where you could find those MPs. In my environment, we used to grab a copy of them during a SCOM install/upgrade (the MPs were decompressed into a temporary folder)

    You may get the error more than once until you've imported all of the management packs that your management pack depends on.

  • I very, very, very recently ran into the identical issue with this management pack (although to be fair, I'm now using version 7.5.1005.0).

    Regardless - Aaron is entirely correct as this is easiest way (fortunately/unfortunately depending on your view of things) to find what the actual dependencies are is to do the export to see the References area. That said, what UR version are you on for SCSM and SCOM? In my recent troubleshooting with this exact issue, I found that UR3 contain the upgraded versions of these management packs (hence my versioning difference).

    I highly recommend getting yourself on the same UR version between both of these products as the MPs will reveal themselves during the installation and be made available in your installation directories.

    Outside of this there is always www.systemcentercore.com - which makes these sealed management packs available along with a history of versions available for download.

  • I think that the management pack has a dependency.  You won't be able to import this management pack until the management pack that it depends on is imported first.

  • Open the MP with an XML editor.  In the <Manifest> node, there is another node called <References>.  In that section, it gives you the names and versions of all the management packs that it depends on.  Check to see if the currently imported management packs match both name and versions.

  • Thanks everyone for the feedback.  I will work to determine the information and dependencies you've described and will report back.
