Recently ran into some trouble with a problematic Management Pack that had quite a few Manual Reset Monitors which I really didn't want to reset by hand so I went ahead and tried to find a bit more automatic solution to deal with this.
After going over quite a few Powershell options I landed on GreenMachine by Tim Helton which provides quite a few command line options to reset or recalculate in bulk.

This is a potentially dangerous operation when combined with -maint, as it can put all your monitors into maintenance mode
