For the System Center Operations Manager configuration item (CI) connector to function correctly, you have to import a set of management packs into System Center 2012 – Service Manager. The management packs and the Windows PowerShell script that you need to import the management packs are in the Service Manager installation folder. The default installation folder is \Program Files\Microsoft System Center\Service Manager 2012\Operations Manager Management Packs and System Center 2012 - Operations Manager Management Packs. Use the following procedures to import the management packs into Service Manager.
