function Get-DbaUptime { <# .SYNOPSIS Returns the uptime of the SQL Server instance, and if required the hosting windows server .DESCRIPTION By default, this command returns for each SQL Server instance passed in: SQL Instance last startup time, Uptime as a PS TimeSpan, Uptime as a formatted string Hosting Windows server last startup time, Uptime as a PS TimeSpan, Uptime as a formatted string .PARAMETER SqlInstance The SQL Server instance that you're connecting to. .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 to SQL Server as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .PARAMETER Credential Allows you to login to the computer (not SQL Server instance) using alternative Windows credentials. .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: CIM Author: Stuart Moore (@napalmgram), stuart-moore.com Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaUptime .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaUptime -SqlInstance SqlBox1\Instance2 Returns an object with SQL Server start time, uptime as TimeSpan object, uptime as a string, and Windows host boot time, host uptime as TimeSpan objects and host uptime as a string for the sqlexpress instance on winserver .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaUptime -SqlInstance winserver\sqlexpress, sql2016 Returns an object with SQL Server start time, uptime as TimeSpan object, uptime as a string, and Windows host boot time, host uptime as TimeSpan objects and host uptime as a string for the sqlexpress instance on host winserver and the default instance on host sql2016 .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaCmsRegServer -SqlInstance sql2014 | Get-DbaUptime Returns an object with SQL Server start time, uptime as TimeSpan object, uptime as a string, and Windows host boot time, host uptime as TimeSpan objects and host uptime as a string for every server listed in the Central Management Server on sql2014 #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = "Default")] param ( [parameter(Mandatory, ValueFromPipeline)] [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlServer", "ComputerName")] [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [PSCredential]$Credential, [Alias('Silent')] [switch]$EnableException ) begin { $nowutc = (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime() } process { foreach ($instance in $SqlInstance) { if ($instance.Gettype().FullName -eq [System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject] ) { $servername = $instance.SqlInstance } elseif ($instance.Gettype().FullName -eq [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server]) { $servername = $instance.ComputerName } else { $servername = $instance.ComputerName; } try { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Connecting to $instance" $server = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $instance -SqlCredential $sqlcredential } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Failure" -Category ConnectionError -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $instance -Continue } Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Getting start times for $servername" #Get tempdb creation date [dbadatetime]$SQLStartTime = $server.Databases["tempdb"].CreateDate $SQLUptime = New-TimeSpan -Start $SQLStartTime.ToUniversalTime() -End $nowutc $SQLUptimeString = "{0} days {1} hours {2} minutes {3} seconds" -f $($SQLUptime.Days), $($SQLUptime.Hours), $($SQLUptime.Minutes), $($SQLUptime.Seconds) $WindowsServerName = (Resolve-DbaNetworkName $servername -Credential $Credential).FullComputerName try { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Getting WinBootTime via CimInstance for $servername" $WinBootTime = (Get-DbaOperatingSystem -ComputerName $windowsServerName -Credential $Credential -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).LastBootTime $WindowsUptime = New-TimeSpan -start $WinBootTime.ToUniversalTime() -end $nowutc $WindowsUptimeString = "{0} days {1} hours {2} minutes {3} seconds" -f $($WindowsUptime.Days), $($WindowsUptime.Hours), $($WindowsUptime.Minutes), $($WindowsUptime.Seconds) } catch { try { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Getting WinBootTime via CimInstance DCOM" $CimOption = New-CimSessionOption -Protocol DCOM $CimSession = New-CimSession -Credential:$Credential -ComputerName $WindowsServerName -SessionOption $CimOption [dbadatetime]$WinBootTime = ($CimSession | Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_OperatingSystem).LastBootUpTime $WindowsUptime = New-TimeSpan -start $WinBootTime.ToUniversalTime() -end $nowutc $WindowsUptimeString = "{0} days {1} hours {2} minutes {3} seconds" -f $($WindowsUptime.Days), $($WindowsUptime.Hours), $($WindowsUptime.Minutes), $($WindowsUptime.Seconds) } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Failure getting WinBootTime" -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $instance -Continue } } [PSCustomObject]@{ ComputerName = $WindowsServerName InstanceName = $server.ServiceName SqlServer = $server.Name SqlUptime = $SQLUptime WindowsUptime = $WindowsUptime SqlStartTime = $SQLStartTime WindowsBootTime = $WinBootTime SinceSqlStart = $SQLUptimeString SinceWindowsBoot = $WindowsUptimeString } } } } |
