function Get-DbaDbIdentity { <# .SYNOPSIS Checks the current identity value via DBCC CHECKIDENT with NORESEED optuin .DESCRIPTION Use the command DBCC CHECKIDENT with NORESEED option to checks the current identity value of a table and return results Read more: - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/database-console-commands/dbcc-checkident-transact-sql .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server instance or instances. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential) .PARAMETER Database The database(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed. .PARAMETER Table The table(s) for which to check the current identity value. .PARAMETER WhatIf Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run. .PARAMETER Confirm Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet. .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: DBCC Author: Patrick Flynn (@sqllensman) Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaDbIdentity .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaDbIdentity -SqlInstance SQLServer2017 -Database AdventureWorks2014 -Table 'Production.ScrapReason' Connects to AdventureWorks2014 on instance SqlServer2017 using Windows Authentication and runs the command DBCC CHECKIDENT('Production.ScrapReason', NORESEED) to return the current identity value. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> $cred = Get-Credential sqladmin PS C:\> 'Sql1','Sql2/sqlexpress' | Get-DbaDbIdentity -SqlCredential $cred -Database AdventureWorks2014 -Table 'Production.ScrapReason' Connects to AdventureWorks2014 on instances Sql1 and Sql2/sqlexpress using sqladmin credential and runs the command DBCC CHECKIDENT('Production.ScrapReason', NORESEED) to return the current identity value. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> $query = "Select Quotename(Schema_Name(t.schema_id)) +'.' + QuoteName(t.name) as TableName from sys.columns c INNER JOIN sys.tables t on t.object_id = c.object_id WHERE is_identity = 1 and is_memory_optimized = 0" PS C:\> $IdentityTables = Invoke-DbaQuery -SqlInstance SQLServer2017 -Database AdventureWorks2014 -Query $query -As SingleValue PS C:\> Get-DbaDbIdentity -SqlInstance SQLServer2017 -Database AdventureWorks2014 -Table $IdentityTables Checks the current identity value for all non memory optimized tables with an Identity in the AdventureWorks2014 database on the SQLServer2017 instance. #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess, ConfirmImpact = 'Low')] param ( [parameter(Mandatory, ValueFromPipeline)] [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [string[]]$Database, [string[]]$Table, [switch]$EnableException ) begin { $stringBuilder = New-Object System.Text.StringBuilder $null = $stringBuilder.Append("DBCC CHECKIDENT(#options#, NORESEED)") } process { if (Test-Bound -Not -ParameterName Table) { Stop-Function -Message "You must specify a table to execute against using -Table" return } foreach ($instance in $SqlInstance) { Write-Message -Message "Attempting Connection to $instance" -Level Verbose try { $server = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $instance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Error occured while establishing connection to $instance" -Category ConnectionError -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $instance -Continue } $dbs = $server.Databases if ($Database) { $dbs = $dbs | Where-Object Name -In $Database } foreach ($db in $dbs) { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Processing $db on $instance" if ($db.IsAccessible -eq $false) { Stop-Function -Message "The database $db is not accessible.
