function Get-DbaWindowsLog { <# .SYNOPSIS Gets Windows Application events associated with an instance .DESCRIPTION Gets Windows Application events associated with an instance .PARAMETER SqlInstance The instance(s) to retrieve the event logs from .PARAMETER Start Default: 1970 Retrieve all events starting from this timestamp. .PARAMETER End Default: Now Retrieve all events that happened before this timestamp .PARAMETER Credential Credential to be used to connect to the Server. Note this is a Windows credential, as this command requires we communicate with the computer and not with the SQL instance. .PARAMETER MaxThreads Default: Unlimited The maximum number of parallel threads used on the local computer. Given that those will mostly be waiting for the remote system, there is usually no need to limit this. .PARAMETER MaxRemoteThreads Default: 2 The maximum number of parallel threads that are executed on the target sql server. These processes will cause considerable CPU load, so a low limit is advisable in most scenarios. Any value lower than 1 disables the limit .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: Logging Author: Drew Furgiuele Editor: Friedrich "Fred" Weinmann Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaWindowsLog .EXAMPLE $ErrorLogs = Get-DbaWindowsLog -SqlInstance sql01\sharepoint $ErrorLogs | Where-Object ErrorNumber -eq 18456 Returns all lines in the errorlogs that have event number 18456 in them #> [CmdletBinding()] param ( [Parameter(ValueFromPipeline)] [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlServer")] [DbaInstanceParameter[]] $SqlInstance = $env:COMPUTERNAME, [DateTime] $Start = "1/1/1970 00:00:00", [DateTime] $End = (Get-Date), [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $Credential, [int] $MaxThreads = 0, [int] $MaxRemoteThreads = 2, [switch] [Alias('Silent')]$EnableException ) begin { Write-Message -Level Debug -Message "Bound parameters: $($PSBoundParameters.Keys -join ", ")" #region Helper Functions function Start-Runspace { $Powershell = [PowerShell]::Create().AddScript($scriptBlock_ParallelRemoting).AddParameter("SqlInstance", $instance).AddParameter("Start", $Start).AddParameter("End", $End).AddParameter("Credential", $Credential).AddParameter("MaxRemoteThreads", $MaxRemoteThreads).AddParameter("ScriptBlock", $scriptBlock_RemoteExecution) $Powershell.RunspacePool = $RunspacePool Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Launching remote runspace against <c='green'>$instance</c>" -Target $instance $null = $RunspaceCollection.Add((New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{ Runspace = $PowerShell.BeginInvoke();
