After installing UR2, the SCOM console crashes on startup. Anyone else have this problem?
Due to a new addition in UR2 console for Azure Migrate, the console will crash if the customer removed all the UNIX/Linux MP’s from SCOM. Reimporting the “UNIX/Linux Core Library” (Microsoft.Unix.Library) management pack will resolve this issue.
