Uninstalling the HP IMP for MOM 2000

If the HP IMP for MOM 2000 has been installed in a MOM 2005 environment, it must be removed
before installing the HP Management Packs 1.3 for MOM 2005. Failure to do so can lead to duplicate

event and group entries and inoperative functionality under MOM 2005.
The current architecture for MOM management packs does not allow for the easy removal of an imported
management pack. HP has documented the following procedures to remove the graphical and database

entries associated with the HP IMP for MOM 2000.
Several elements of the HP IMP for MOM 2000, such as computer groups, computer attributes, tasks,
scripts, and views, can easily be deleted from the MOM administrator or operator console tree manually.

The processing rules and other database elements that might link to outstanding alerts cannot be removed
immediately.

NOTE:

Database elements linked to outstanding alerts cannot be removed until MOM

Database Grooming completes. By default, Database Grooming has a grace period of four

days. You can verify this period by selecting Administration>Global Settings>Database
Grooming. Database Grooming might take longer than the specified time to complete.

To uninstall the HP IMP for MOM 2000:

1.

Open the MOM Operator Console.

2.

Verify that no pending alerts are displayed, and exit the MOM Operator Console. Resolve any
pending alert listed in the MOM 2005 Operator Console before proceeding to step 3.
