function Set-DbaPrivilege {
<#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Adds the SQL Service account to local privileges on one or more computers.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        Adds the SQL Service account to local privileges 'Lock Pages in Memory', 'Instant File Initialization', 'Logon as Batch' on one or more computers.
 
        Requires Local Admin rights on destination computer(s).
 
    .PARAMETER ComputerName
        The target SQL Server instance or instances.
 
    .PARAMETER Credential
        Credential object used to connect to the computer as a different user.
 
    .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.
 
    .PARAMETER Type
        Use this to choose the privilege(s) to which you want to add the SQL Service account.
        Accepts 'IFI', 'LPIM' and/or 'BatchLogon' for local privileges 'Instant File Initialization', 'Lock Pages in Memory' and 'Logon as Batch'.
