Function Test-DbaMaxMemory { <# .SYNOPSIS Calculates the recommended value for SQL Server 'Max Server Memory' configuration setting. Works on SQL Server 2000-2014. .DESCRIPTION Inspired by Jonathan Kehayias's post about SQL Server Max memory (http://bit.ly/sqlmemcalc), this script displays a SQL Server's: total memory, currently configured SQL max memory, and the calculated recommendation. Jonathan notes that the formula used provides a *general recommendation* that doesn't account for everything that may be going on in your specific environment. .PARAMETER SqlServer Allows you to specify a comma separated list of servers to query. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use: $cred = Get-Credential, then pass $cred variable to this parameter. Windows Authentication will be used when SqlCredential is not specified. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .NOTES dbatools PowerShell module (https://dbatools.io, clemaire@gmail.com) Copyright (C) 2016 Chrissy LeMaire This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
