function Get-DbaAgentLog { <# .SYNOPSIS Gets the "SQL Agent Error Log" of an instance .DESCRIPTION Gets the "SQL Agent Error Log" of an instance. Returns all 10 error logs by default. .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server instance or instances. This can be a collection and receive pipeline input to allow the function to be executed against multiple SQL Server instances. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins as opposed to Windows Auth/Integrated/Trusted. .PARAMETER LogNumber An Int32 value that specifies the index number of the error log required. Error logs are listed 0 through 9 where 0 is the current error log and 9 is the oldest. .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: Chrissy LeMaire (@cl), netnerds.net Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaAgentLog .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaAgentLog -SqlInstance sql01\sharepoint Returns the entire error log for the SQL Agent on sql01\sharepoint .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaAgentLog -SqlInstance sql01\sharepoint -LogNumber 3, 6 Returns log numbers 3 and 6 for the SQL Agent on sql01\sharepoint .EXAMPLE PS C:\> $servers = "sql2014","sql2016", "sqlcluster\sharepoint" PS C:\> $servers | Get-DbaAgentLog -LogNumber 0 Returns the most recent SQL Agent error logs for "sql2014","sql2016" and "sqlcluster\sharepoint" #> [CmdletBinding()] param ( [Parameter(ValueFromPipeline)] [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential] $SqlCredential, [ValidateRange(0, 9)] [int[]]$LogNumber, [switch]$EnableException ) process { foreach ($instance in $SqlInstance) { try { $server = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $instance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Error occurred while establishing connection to $instance" -Category ConnectionError -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $instance -Continue } if ($LogNumber) { foreach ($number in $lognumber) { try { foreach ($object in $server.JobServer.ReadErrorLog($number)) { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Processing $object" Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty ComputerName -value $server.ComputerName Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty InstanceName -value $server.ServiceName Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty SqlInstance -value $server.DomainInstanceName # Select all of the columns you'd like to show Select-DefaultView -InputObject $object -Property ComputerName, InstanceName, SqlInstance, LogDate, ProcessInfo, Text } } catch { Stop-Function -Continue -Target $server -Message "Could not read from SQL Server Agent" } } } else { try { foreach ($object in $server.JobServer.ReadErrorLog()) { Write-Message -Level Verbose -Message "Processing $object" Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty ComputerName -value $server.ComputerName Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty InstanceName -value $server.ServiceName Add-Member -Force -InputObject $object -MemberType NoteProperty SqlInstance -value $server.DomainInstanceName # Select all of the columns you'd like to show Select-DefaultView -InputObject $object -Property ComputerName, InstanceName, SqlInstance, LogDate, ProcessInfo, Text } } catch { Stop-Function -Continue -Target $server -Message "Could not read from SQL Server Agent" } } } } } |
