So you will want to keep track of what you are removing. Generally we are following this process because we are removing the management pack but cannot due to these dependencies so it is not an issue. But if you are trying to clean your management packs you will want to take care. Start with an override report focused on the "Default Management Pack" This will help keep you focused.

One question: By deleting the "Reference folder", does that delete any overrides saved in the MP? Thanks, Tom Great stuff, thanks.

You have saved me a lot of time. I did try the overrides explorer first and removed all overlapping overrides, but still could not delete the management pack. Then exported the Default MP, removed the reference for the Citrix MP and boom - finally I was able to delete the Citrix MP and import the newer version (5.0.0.0). I knew that the things from the past would somehow come back and haunt me. ha ha Thanks. You have saved me a lot of time.

I had a problem importing the pack. I went back and realized I had a bunch of Overrides. Under Monitoring all of my overrides were preventing the import from working. I had to delete all references to the management pack in all nodes and then it was finally successful. You saved me a complete reinstall. Excellent write up. I had a problem importing the pack.

I'll be more careful next time! Great stuff, I found I needed to delete a custom management pack to resolve the issue, then reconfigure everything again. I’ll be more careful next time!
