How to get monitor threshods for Management Packs

Question
-
Hello,
I'm not administering SCOM but I need to get all information relating to monitoring, and more specifically, thresholds information.
I've run the PS scripts I've found in several forum discussions such us:

http://blog.theinfraguys.com/2012/02/retrieving-scom-monitor-thresholds-by.html
I all the cases the script returns an empty value for the threshold field. Has anybody tried those scripts before?
I can see alerts in the Operations Console like this:
Available megabytes of memory is too low: "The threshold for the Memory\Available MBytes performance counter has been exceeded. The value that exceeded the threshold is: 495."
But, how could I get all defined thresholds?
Thanks in advance.

Will you gain a lot of value by being able to view all of the monitor thresholds at once? Instead, I would recommend pulling up an override view for a monitor that you were curious about. The override view will list all of the default values for the monitor, including thresholds.

I've done some research on this and the article I would recommend to review as a reference: http://www.scomnifties.com/powershell-snippets-scom2007r2-2012/
From what I saw above in the links, you could try to edit the script from here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/boris_yanushpolsky/archive/2007/08/07/so-what-thresholds-do-my-monitors-have.aspx but you could use get-scommonitor instead, and see which of the switches from here could apply: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh918469(v=sc.20).aspx
hope this helps,
Jose
