Function Export-SqlSpConfigure
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
 Exports advanced sp_configure global configuration options to sql file.

.DESCRIPTION
Exports advanced sp_configure global configuration options to sql file.

.PARAMETER SqlCredential
Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use:

$scred = Get-Credential, this pass $scred object to the param.

Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user.

.PARAMETER SqlServer
The SQL Server that you're connecting to.

.PARAMETER Path
The Path to the SQL File

.PARAMETER WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.

.PARAMETER Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command.

.EXAMPLE
Export-SqlSpConfigure $sourceserver -Path C:\temp\sp_configure.sql

Exports the SPConfigure on sourceserver to the file C:\temp\sp_configure.sql

.OUTPUTS
File to disk, and string path.

.SYNOPSIS
 Updates sp_configure settings on destination server.

.DESCRIPTION
Updates sp_configure settings on destination server.

.PARAMETER Source
Source SQL Server.You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or greater.

.PARAMETER Destination
Destination SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or greater.

.PARAMETER SourceSqlCredential
Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use:

$scred = Get-Credential, this pass $scred object to the param.

Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user.

.PARAMETER DestinationSqlCredential
Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use:

$dcred = Get-Credential, this pass this $dcred to the param.

Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user.

.PARAMETER SqlServer
The SQL Server that you're connecting to.

.PARAMETER Path
The Path to the SQL File

.PARAMETER Force
Overrides Major Version Check

.PARAMETER WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.

.PARAMETER Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command.

.EXAMPLE
Import-SqlSpConfigure sqlserver sqlcluster $SourceSqlCredential $DestinationSqlCredential

Imports the spconfigure settings from the source server sqlserver and sets them on the sqlcluster server
using the SQL credentials stored in the variables

.EXAMPLE
Import-SqlSpConfigure -SqlServer sqlserver -Path .\spconfig.sql -SqlCredential $SqlCredential

Imports the spconfigure settings from the file .\spconfig.sql and sets them on the sqlcluster server
using the SQL credential stored in the variables

.OUTPUTS
    $true if success
