FUNCTION Set-DbaSpConfigure { <# .SYNOPSIS Changes the server level system configuration (sys.configuration/sp_configure) value for a given configuration .DESCRIPTION This function changes the configured value for sp_configure settings. If the setting is dynamic this setting will be used, otherwise the user will be warned that a restart of SQL is required. This is designed to be safe and will not allow for configurations to be set outside of the defined configuration min and max values. While it is possible to set below the min, or above the max this can cause serious problems with SQL Server (including startup failures), and so is not permitted. .PARAMETER SqlInstance SQLServer name or SMO object representing the SQL Server to connect to. This can be a collection and recieve pipeline input .PARAMETER SqlCredential PSCredential object to connect as. If not specified, current Windows login will be used. .PARAMETER Configs The name of the configuration to be set -- Configs is autopopulated for tabbing convenience. .PARAMETER Value The new value for the configuration .PARAMETER WhatIf Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed. .PARAMETER Silent Use this switch to disable any kind of verbose messages .PARAMETER Confirm Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command. .NOTES Original Author: Nic Cain, https://sirsql.net/ Tags: Config 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.
