function Set-DbaDbRecoveryModel { <# .SYNOPSIS Set-DbaDbRecoveryModel sets the Recovery Model. .DESCRIPTION Set-DbaDbRecoveryModel sets the Recovery Model for user databases. .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server instance or instances. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins instead of Windows Authentication (AKA Integrated or Trusted). To use: $scred = Get-Credential, then pass $scred object to the -SqlCredential parameter. Windows Authentication will be used if SqlCredential 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 Database The database(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. if unspecified, all databases will be processed. .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase The database(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server .PARAMETER AllDatabases This is a parameter that was included for safety, so you don't accidentally set options on all databases without specifying .PARAMETER RecoveryModel Recovery Model to be set. Valid options are 'Simple', 'Full', 'BulkLogged' Details about the recovery models can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/backup-restore/recovery-models-sql-server .PARAMETER WhatIf If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run. .PARAMETER Confirm Prompts for confirmation. For example: Are you sure you want to perform this action? Performing the operation "ALTER DATABASE [model] SET RECOVERY Full" on target "[model] on WERES14224". [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"): .PARAMETER EnableException By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message. This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting. Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch. .PARAMETER DatabaseCollection A collection of databases (such as returned by Get-DbaDatabase) .NOTES Tags: Recovery, RecoveryModel, Simple, Full, Bulk, BulkLogged Author: Viorel Ciucu (@viorelciucu), https://www.cviorel.com Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Set-DbaDbRecoveryModel .EXAMPLE Set-DbaDbRecoveryModel -SqlInstance sql2014 -RecoveryModel BulkLogged -Database model -Confirm:$true -Verbose Sets the Recovery Model to BulkLogged for database [model] on SQL Server instance sql2014.
