The following unsealed management packs are included in Operations Manager:
Client Monitoring Overrides Management Pack
Default Management Pack
Microsoft SystemCenter Virtualization Network Management Pack
Network Discovery Internal Management Pack
Don't save any settings, views, or overrides to these management packs. You should create your own local pack, which is an unsealed management pack in which to store your customizations. As a best practice, you should create a separate local pack for each sealed management pack you customize.
