function Remove-DbaDbOrphanUser { <# .SYNOPSIS Drop orphan users with no existing login to map .DESCRIPTION Allows the removal of orphan users from one or more databases Orphaned users in SQL Server occur when a database user is based on a login in the master database, but the login no longer exists in master. This can occur when the login is deleted, or when the database is moved to another server where the login does not exist. If user is the owner of the schema with the same name and if if the schema does not have any underlying objects the schema will be dropped. If user owns more than one schema, the owner of the schemas that does not have the same name as the user, will be changed to 'dbo'. If schemas have underlying objects, you must specify the -Force parameter so the user can be dropped. If a login of the same name exists (which could be re-mapped with Repair-DbaDbOrphanUser) the drop will not be performed unless you specify the -Force parameter (only when calling from Repair-DbaDbOrphanUser. .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server instance or instances. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential). Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported. For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance. .PARAMETER Database Specifies the database(s) to process. Options for this list are auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed. .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase Specifies the database(s) to exclude from processing. Options for this list are auto-populated from the server .PARAMETER User Specifies the list of users to remove. .PARAMETER Force If this switch is enabled: If exists any schema which owner is the User, this will force the change of the owner to 'dbo'. If a login of the same name exists the drop will not be performed unless you specify this parameter. .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. .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: Orphan, Database, Security, Login Author: Claudio Silva (@ClaudioESSilva) | Simone Bizzotto (@niphlod) Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Remove-DbaDbOrphanUser .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Remove-DbaDbOrphanUser -SqlInstance sql2005 Finds and drops all orphan users without matching Logins in all databases present on server 'sql2005'. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Remove-DbaDbOrphanUser -SqlInstance sqlserver2014a -SqlCredential $cred Finds and drops all orphan users without matching Logins in all databases present on server 'sqlserver2014a'.
