function Copy-DbaSpConfigure {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Copy-DbaSpConfigure migrates configuration values from one SQL Server to another.
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            By default, all configuration values are copied. The -ConfigName parameter is auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used to copy only specific configs.
 
        .PARAMETER Source
            Source SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or higher.
 
        .PARAMETER SourceSqlCredential
            Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
        .PARAMETER Destination
            Destination SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and the server must be SQL Server 2000 or higher.
 
        .PARAMETER DestinationSqlCredential
            Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
        .PARAMETER ConfigName
            Specifies the configuration setting to process. Options for this list are auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all ConfigNames will be processed.
 
        .PARAMETER ExcludeConfigName
            Specifies the configuration settings to exclude. Options for this list are auto-populated from the 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
            If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.
 
        .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.
