Function Restore-DbaFromDatabaseSnapshot { <# .SYNOPSIS Restores databases from snapshots .DESCRIPTION Restores the database from the snapshot, discarding every modification made to the database NB: Restoring to a snapshot will result in every other snapshot of the same database to be dropped It also fixes some long-standing bugs in SQL Server when restoring from snapshots .PARAMETER SqlInstance The SQL Server that you're connecting to .PARAMETER Credential Credential object used to connect to the SQL Server as a different user .PARAMETER Databases Restores from the last snapshot databases with this names only NB: you can pass either Databases or Snapshots .PARAMETER Snapshots Restores databases from snapshots with this names only NB: you can pass either Databases or Snapshots .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. .PARAMETER Force If restoring from a snapshot involves dropping any other shapshot, you need to explicitly use -Force to let this command delete the ones not involved in the restore process. .NOTES Tags: DisasterRecovery, Snapshot, Backup, Restore Author: niphlod dbatools PowerShell module (https://dbatools.io) 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.
