Is there a way to 'uninstall' a management pack cleanly? I can't find a way
to remove all of the rules, groups, objects etc. once you have imported a
management pack and then determine that it needs to be removed. Exporting
only exports the definitions without removing the entire 'pack'.
Thanks

No there isn't. You have to do it all manually :(

Great! That means I have to parse a dozen different containers to clear out
the rules, groups, attributes, events..........
It seems like there should be a utility to 'clean' up after a management
pack has become obsolete in an environment.
Thanks for you help Arie.......Anyone else care to comment?

MSFT may address this in the next version of MOM. There was a lot of
feedback about this.

This won't be an easy task, you have to remember also the Scripts and
Providers installed by this Managent pack.
