function Remove-DbaTrace { <# .SYNOPSIS Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server. .DESCRIPTION Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server. .PARAMETER SqlInstance A SQL Server instance to connect to .PARAMETER SqlCredential A credential to use to connect to the SQL Instance rather than using Windows Authentication .PARAMETER Id A list of trace ids .PARAMETER InputObject Internal parameter for piping .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. .NOTES Tags: Security, Trace Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .EXAMPLE Remove-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 Stops all traces on sql2008 .EXAMPLE Remove-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 -Id 1 Stops all trace with ID 1 on sql2008 .EXAMPLE Get-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 | Out-GridView -PassThru | Remove-DbaTrace Stops selected traces on sql2008 #> [CmdletBinding()] Param ( [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlServer")] [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [int[]]$Id, [parameter(ValueFromPipeline)] [object[]]$InputObject, [switch]$EnableException ) process { if (-not $InputObject -and $SqlInstance) { $InputObject = Get-DbaTrace -SqlInstance $SqlInstance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential -Id $Id } foreach ($trace in $InputObject) { if (-not $trace.id -and -not $trace.Parent) { Stop-Function -Message "Input is of the wrong type.
