Export/Import Maintenance Plans

We are moving from SQL Server 2008R2 to SQL Server 2016 which is on a new server my dilemma is that i have 69 maintenance plans that I need to move to the new server. I know I can do it with SSIS by exporting modifying DTX files connection string for the new serve, but with 69 plans that is extremely tedious. Does anyone know of a tool or scripting that will accomplish this? I want to keep the as  Maintenance Plans not just Jobs.

Maintenance plans are SSIS packages which deploy under MSDB. So what we can do is go to (SQL Server 2008 R2) MSDB -> Maintenance plans  -> right click on the plan and say export and provide the path details and then we can connect to SQL Server 2016 and go to MSDB -> Maintenance plans  and we say import and provide the path of the saved Maintenance plan.

Sample steps are shown here.

or you can try the powershell script from Microsoft
# MAINTENANCE PLANS
# import OK
$debugpreference = 2
$ImportFolder = "C:\"
#"
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS") | Out-Null
$application = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application
[string[]]$DtsxFiles = Get-ChildItem -Path $ImportFolder -Filter "*.dtsx" -EA 0 | select -ExpandProperty FullName
if ($DtsxFiles) {
	$CountMP = 0
	foreach ($DtsxFile in $DtsxFiles) {
		try {
			$Package = $application.LoadPackage($DtsxFile, $Null)
			$MaintenancePlanName = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($DtsxFile)
			$application.SaveToSqlServerAs($Package, $Null, "Maintenance Plans\" + $MaintenancePlanName, '.', $Null, $Null)
			$CountMP++
		}
		catch {
			Write-Error "ERROR:" + $_.Exception.Message
		}
	}
	Write-Debug "$CountMP Maintenance Plan(s) imported from '$ImportFolder'"
}
else {
	Write-Warning "There is no Maintenance Plan"
}

	foreach ($PackageInfo in $PackageInfos) {
		$PackageName = $PackageInfo.Name

I'm wondering why do you need 69 maintenance plans in a single SQL Server instance. Wouldn't this be an excellent opportunity to review them and maybe consolidate many of those maintenance plans?

Vitor, unfortunately no, do to the nature of our business each one of these jobs has a specific function the majority of which are alerts when something goes wrong.
Pawan, Yes I know I can export/import the packages but it has to be done individually and the connection string in each package modified to the new server, this is what I wanted to avoid. I will try the powershell.
I don't think you have another option but migrate them one by one.
In all my years as DBA I never used maintenance plans. I would rather prefer to use T-SQL scripts in jobs that I can schedule. And it's much easy to migrate those jobs because they are stored in msdb database.
I also use to have a single SSIS server where I store the dtsx packages that need to be run for whatever SQL Server instance in the network. This way I have all them concentrated in a single server as they don't need to stay in the same SQL Server instance of the databases they are connecting to. Meaning that when you migrate a database you just need to update the dtsx package connection to point to the new location.
yeah... I was afraid of that. Jobs are not as easy to modify as are Maintenance plans.
Jobs are not as easy to modify as are Maintenance plans.
Maintenance plans are very static. Jobs gives you a lot of flexibility. I personally do not use maintenance plans at all.
Ok... I will look into that but how do I modify the SQL statements in a JOB?
On another note I am trying to get the Job Schedule information frequency of job running, day of the week, time, etc. I have tried the following code but when I comment out the "and smpld.line1 like '%Back Up%'" line i get the following error "Invalid length parameter passed to the RIGHT function."

Ok it didn't error but it is not displaying all the Jobs, only 11 out of 70, and they seem to be admin jobs,
Data is filtered. Please try this -

/* 
Backup information from maintenance plans - jobs, schedules, etc.

Andy Galbraith @DBA_ANDY

MSSQL 2005+

Heavily borrows from http://sqlfool.com/2009/02/view-sql-agent-jobs-tsql/ 
for the original job schedule CTE and base query - thanks Michelle!

I modified Michelle's original query slightly and then added 
the maintenance plan information to match the jobs to their 
parent maintenance plans.

The filter that makes the query relevant to backup subplans is:

"and smpld.line1 like '%Back Up%'"

Commenting out or removing this line will display information about
all maintenance plan subplans and their enabled jobs

Pawan,
Perfect, I knew it was filtered but I could find where. Where was the filter?
I removed the where clause. If not working the change all joins to full outer joins.
Ok... Almost there It seems to be only display Maintenance plans and only those enabled i removed the  "Where sched.enabled = 1" clause but that had no effect
