function Copy-DbaExtendedEvent { <# .SYNOPSIS Migrates SQL Extended Event Sessions except the two default sessions, AlwaysOn_health and system_health. .DESCRIPTION By default, all non-system extended events are migrated. If the event already exists on the destination, it will be skipped unless -Force is used. The -Session parameter is auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used to copy only specific objects. .PARAMETER Source Source SQL Server.You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2008 or higher. .PARAMETER SourceSqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use: $scred = Get-Credential, then pass $scred object to the -SourceSqlCredential parameter. Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .PARAMETER Destination Destination Sql Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2008 or higher. .PARAMETER DestinationSqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. To use: $dcred = Get-Credential, then pass this $dcred to the -DestinationSqlCredential parameter. Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .PARAMETER XeSession The Extended Event Session(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all Extended Event Sessions will be processed. .PARAMETER ExcludeXeSession The Extended Event Session(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server .PARAMETER Force If sessions exists on destination server, it will be dropped and recreated. .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 Silent Use this switch to disable any kind of verbose messages .NOTES Tags: Migration, ExtendedEvent, XEvent Author: Chrissy LeMaire (@cl), netnerds.net Requires: sysadmin access on SQL Servers Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: GNU GPL v3 https://opensource.org/licenses/GPL-3.0 .LINK https://dbatools.io/Copy-DbaExtendedEvent .EXAMPLE Copy-DbaExtendedEvent -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster Copies all extended event sessions from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster, using Windows credentials. .EXAMPLE Copy-DbaExtendedEvent -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -SourceSqlCredential $cred Copies all extended event sessions from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster, using SQL credentials for sqlserver2014a and Windows credentials for sqlcluster. .EXAMPLE Copy-DbaExtendedEvent -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -WhatIf Shows what would happen if the command were executed. .EXAMPLE Copy-DbaExtendedEvent -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -XeSession CheckQueries, MonitorUserDefinedException Copies two Extended Events, CheckQueries and MonitorUserDefinedException, from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster. #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = "Default", SupportsShouldProcess = $true)] param ( [parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [DbaInstanceParameter]$Source, [parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [DbaInstanceParameter]$Destination, [PSCredential] $SourceSqlCredential, [PSCredential] $DestinationSqlCredential, [object[]]$XeSession, [object[]]$ExcludeXeSession, [switch]$Force, [switch]$Silent ) begin { $sourceServer = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $Source -SqlCredential $SourceSqlCredential -MinimumVersion 10 $destServer = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $Destination -SqlCredential $DestinationSqlCredential -MinimumVersion 10 $source = $sourceServer.DomainInstanceName $destination = $destServer.DomainInstanceName } process { $sourceSqlConn = $sourceServer.ConnectionContext.SqlConnectionObject $sourceSqlStoreConnection = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.SqlStoreConnection $sourceSqlConn $sourceStore = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.XEvent.XEStore $sourceSqlStoreConnection $destSqlConn = $destServer.ConnectionContext.SqlConnectionObject $destSqlStoreConnection = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.SqlStoreConnection $destSqlConn $destStore = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.XEvent.XEStore $destSqlStoreConnection $storeSessions = $sourceStore.Sessions | Where-Object { $_.Name -notin 'AlwaysOn_health', 'system_health' } if ($XeSession) { $storeSessions = $storeSessions | Where-Object Name -In $XeSession } if ($ExcludeXeSession) { $storeSessions = $storeSessions | Where-Object Name -NotIn $ExcludeXeSession } Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Migrating sessions" foreach ($session in $storeSessions) { $sessionName = $session.Name $copyXeSessionStatus = [pscustomobject]@{ SourceServer = $sourceServer.Name DestinationServer = $destServer.Name Name = $sessionName Status = $null DateTime = [DbaDateTime](Get-Date) } if ($destStore.Sessions[$sessionName] -ne $null) { if ($force -eq $false) { $copyXeSessionStatus.Status = "Skipped" $copyXeSessionStatus Write-Message -Level Warning -Message "Extended Event Session '$sessionName' was skipped because it already exists on $destination" Write-Message -Level Warning -Message "Use -Force to drop and recreate" continue } else { if ($Pscmdlet.ShouldProcess($destination, "Attempting to drop $sessionName")) { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Extended Event Session '$sessionName' exists on $destination" Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Force specified.
