Authoring Console and Management Pack References after CU3

Author: Brody Kilpatrick | Created: November 24, 2010

If you have updated to Service Manager CU3, you will notice warnings in the event logs that show management pack mismatches between. *.0 and *.216. This is a bug, and it will be fixed in the next release. However, if you are working in the Authoring console the referenced management packs will not necessarily be *.216. To successfully import the management pack, you will have to manually change the references back to *.0 first. After making the changes, you will be able to open the MP in the authoring console until you change the references back.

Changing the Authored Management Pack References for Import into Service Manager.

1. Make a copy of your authored management pack.
2. Open the MP using an editor.
3. Find the references section.
4. Perform a Find and Replace. Find .216. Replace with .0.
5. Import the MP into Service Manager
