*************************************************

There are nine affected Microsoft Management Packs.

They are:

The only changes made to these management packs are the updates to the report schema. If you already have the management pack installed and are not experiencing problems there is no need to reinstall the management pack. There are no new features or reports.

A KB article documenting this will be released shortly.
