Is there an Upgrade Path from MOM 2000 SP1 to MOM 2005?

We have done a large amount of filtering on certain rules and would not like to have to start all over again. Would we just be able to export our filtering rules and export then back in?

Yes, you can either upgrade your existing server to 2005 or create a new server and import your old MP's.

We have changed the new MP's pretty significantly so you might want to throw them into a test environment and look at them compared to what you've got. We've had customers in your situation that just decided to ditch the old tuned MP for the new one.

If you've tuned the old MOM MP, it won't work against the new agents (the service name has changed). We have a transition MP to use if you want to monitor new agents with the old server while you upgrade (works in a multihoming situation where you can upgrade one config group and the agents, but not another config group that the agents are also reporting to).
