function Get-DbaXESessionTargetFile { <# .SYNOPSIS Get a file system object from the Extended Events Session Target Files. .DESCRIPTION Get a file system object from the Extended Events Session Target Files. Note: this performs a Get-ChildItem on remote servers if the specified target SQL Server is remote. .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server .PARAMETER SqlCredential Login to SQL instnace with alternative credentials .PARAMETER Session Only return files from a specific session. Options for this parameter are auto-populated from the server. .PARAMETER Target Only return files from a specific target. .PARAMETER InputObject Allows results from piping in Get-DbaXESessionTarget. .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: ExtendedEvent, XE, XEvent Author: Chrissy LeMaire (@cl), netnerds.net Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaXESessionTargetFile .EXAMPLE Get-DbaXESessionTargetFile -SqlInstance sql2017 -Session 'Long Running Queries' Shows Target Files for the 'Long Running Queries' session on sql2017. .EXAMPLE Get-DbaXESession -SqlInstance sql2016 -Session 'Long Running Queries' | Get-DbaXESessionTarget | Get-DbaXESessionTargetFile Returns the Target Files for the system_health session on sql2016. #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = "Default")] param ( [parameter(ValueFromPipeline, ParameterSetName = "instance", Mandatory)] [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlServer")] [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [string[]]$Session, [string[]]$Target, [parameter(ValueFromPipeline, ParameterSetName = "piped", Mandatory)] [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.XEvent.Target[]]$InputObject, [switch]$EnableException ) process { if (Test-FunctionInterrupt) { return } foreach ($instance in $SqlInstance) { $InputObject += Get-DbaXESessionTarget -SqlInstance $instance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential -Session $Session -Target $Target | Where-Object File -ne $null } foreach ($object in $InputObject) { $computer = [dbainstance]$object.ComputerName try { if ($computer.IsLocal) { $file = $object.TargetFile Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Getting $file" Get-ChildItem "$file*" -ErrorAction Stop } else { $file = $object.RemoteTargetFile Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Getting $file" Get-ChildItem -Recurse "$file*" -ErrorAction Stop } } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Failure" -ErrorRecord $_ } } } } |
