Applies To: System Center 2012 - Operations Manager

Management packs include tasks that perform useful commands on the items that the management pack is designed to monitor and manage. You can use the Operations Manager class libraries to programmatically launch a task that is defined in an installed management pack. When you start the task, you can control both the criteria that are used to determine the targets of the task and the handling of the results that are returned when the task is complete.
