function Export-DbaSpConfigure { <# .SYNOPSIS Exports advanced sp_configure global configuration options to sql file. .DESCRIPTION Exports advanced sp_configure global configuration options to sql file. .PARAMETER SqlInstance Source SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2005 or higher. .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 -SourceSqlCredential parameter. Windows Authentication will be used if SourceSqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials. To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user. .PARAMETER Path Specifies the path to a file which will contain the sp_configure queries necessary to replicate the configuration settings on another instance. This file is suitable for input into Import-DbaSPConfigure. .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. .NOTES dbatools PowerShell module (https://dbatools.io, clemaire@gmail.com) Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (C) Chrissy LeMaire, clemaire@gmail.com License: GNU GPL v3 https://opensource.org/licenses/GPL-3.0 .EXAMPLE Export-DbaSpConfigure sourceserver -Path C:\temp\sp_configure.sql Exports the SPConfigure settings on sourceserver to the file C:\temp\sp_configure.sql .OUTPUTS File to disk, and string path. #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = "Default", SupportsShouldProcess = $true)] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [Alias("ServerInstance", "SqlServer")] [DbaInstanceParameter]$SqlInstance, [string]$Path, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential ) begin { $server = Connect-SqlInstance $sqlinstance $SqlCredential if ($server.versionMajor -lt 9) { Write-Error "Windows 2000 is not supported for sp_configure export." break } if ($path.length -eq 0) { $timenow = (Get-Date -uformat "%m%d%Y%H%M%S") $mydocs = [Environment]::GetFolderPath('MyDocuments') $path = "$mydocs\$($server.name.replace('\', '$'))-$timenow-sp_configure.sql" } } process { try { Set-Content -Path $path "EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , 1; RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE" } catch { throw "Can't write to $path" } $server.Configuration.ShowAdvancedOptions.ConfigValue = $true $server.Configuration.Alter($true) foreach ($sourceprop in $server.Configuration.Properties) { $displayname = $sourceprop.DisplayName $configvalue = $sourceprop.ConfigValue Add-Content -Path $path "EXEC sp_configure '$displayname' , $configvalue;" } Add-Content -Path $path "EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , 0;" Add-Content -Path $Path "RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE" $server.Configuration.ShowAdvancedOptions.ConfigValue = $false $server.Configuration.Alter($true) return $path } end { $server.ConnectionContext.Disconnect() If ($Pscmdlet.ShouldProcess("console", "Showing finished message")) { Write-Output "Server configuration export finished" } Test-DbaDeprecation -DeprecatedOn "1.0.0" -Silent:$false -Alias Export-SqlSpConfigure } } |
