Function Read-DbaBackupHeader { <# .SYNOPSIS Reads and displays detailed information about a SQL Server backup .DESCRIPTION Reads full, differential and transaction log backups. An online SQL Server is required to parse the backup files and the path specified must be relative to that SQL Server. .PARAMETER SqlServer The SQL Server instance. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. .PARAMETER Path Path to SQL Server backup file. This can be a full, differential or log backup file. .PARAMETER Simple Returns fewer columns for an easy overview .PARAMETER FileList Returns detailed information about the files within the backup .NOTES Tags: DisasterRecovery, Backup, Restore 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.

If you are running this command on a workstation and connecting remotely, remember that sql2016 cannot access files on your own workstation. .EXAMPLE Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer sql2016 -Path \\nas\sql\backups\mydb\mydb.bak, \\nas\sql\backups\otherdb\otherdb.bak Logs into sql2016 and reads two backup files - mydb.bak and otherdb.bak. The SQL Server service account must have rights to read this file. .EXAMPLE Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer . -Path C:\temp\myfile.bak -Simple Logs into the local workstation (or computer) and shows simplified output about C:\temp\myfile.bak. The SQL Server service account must have rights to read this file. .EXAMPLE $backupinfo = Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer . -Path C:\temp\myfile.bak $backupinfo.FileList Displays detailed information about each of the datafiles contained in the backupset. .EXAMPLE Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer . -Path C:\temp\myfile.bak -FileList Also returns detailed information about each of the datafiles contained in the backupset. .EXAMPLE "C:\temp\myfile.bak", "\backupserver\backups\myotherfile.bak" | Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer sql2016 Similar to running Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer sql2016 -Path "C:\temp\myfile.bak", "\backupserver\backups\myotherfile.bak" .EXAMPLE Get-ChildItem \\nas\sql\*.bak | Read-DbaBackupHeader -SqlServer sql2016 Gets a list of all .bak files on the \\nas\sql share and reads the headers using the server named "sql2016". This means that the server, sql2016, must have read access to the \\nas\sql share. #> [CmdletBinding()] Param ( [parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlInstance")] [object]$SqlServer, [object]$SqlCredential, [parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipeline = $true)] [object[]]$Path, [switch]$Simple, [switch]$FileList ) BEGIN { $LoopCnt = 1 $FunctionName = $FunctionName = (Get-PSCallstack)[0].Command try { if ($sqlServer -isnot [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.SqlSmoObject]) { Write-Verbose "$FunctionName - Connecting to $SqlServer" $server = Connect-SqlServer -SqlServer $SqlServer -SqlCredential $SqlCredential -ErrorVariable ConnectError } else { Write-Verbose "$FunctionName - Reusing connection to $SqlServer" $server = $sqlServer } } catch { Write-Warning $_ continue } } PROCESS { $PathCount = $path.length Write-verbose "$FunctionName - $pathcount files to scan" foreach ($file in $path) { if ($file.FullName -ne $null) { $file = $file.FullName } Write-Progress -Id 1 -Activity Updating -Status 'Progress' -CurrentOperation "Scanning Restore headers on File $LoopCnt - $file" Write-Verbose "$FunctionName - Scanning file $file" $restore = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Restore $device = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.BackupDeviceItem $file, FILE $restore.Devices.Add($device) if (Test-SqlPath -SqlServer $server -Path $file) { <# try { $allfiles = $restore.ReadFileList($server) } catch { $shortname = Split-Path $file -Leaf if (!(Test-SqlPath -SqlServer $server -Path $file)) { Write-Warning "File $shortname does not exist or access denied.
