Will exporting an MP delete or disable the original MP in Ops console (SCOM 2012 R2)? Is it worth the effort to import SCOM 2012 R2 unsealed MPs into SCOM 2019?

Will exporting an MP delete or disable the original MP in Ops console (SCOM 2012 R2)?

Considering exporting unsealed MP from SCOM 2012 R2 to import into SCOM 2019?,... would this be worth the effort to import these or is it better to import the latest MPs?

    No, that won't disable them

    Depends on your environment and on what is inside these MPs, we can't answer to that question for you

    When you say it depends on your environment? Can you give me an example?

    Do you have any other information- links, documents,... which may assist in whether to keep unsealed MPs?
    Sorry if I am asking a difficult question.

    It depends on what is inside these Management Packs and if you want to keep this...
    It's not difficult to answer you because of a technical difficulty but more because I can't decide for you what you want/need to keep.

    So what you need to do is open those management packs, check their content and decide if you need it or not.
