NAME Copy-DbaStartupProcedure
SYNOPSIS
Copy-DbaStartupProcedure migrates startup procedures (user defined procedures within master database) from one SQL
Server to another.
SYNTAX
Copy-DbaStartupProcedure [-Source] <DbaInstanceParameter> [[-SourceSqlCredential] <Pscredential>] [-Destination]
<Sqlcollaborative.Dbatools.Parameter.DbaInstanceParameter[]> [[-DestinationSqlCredential] <Pscredential>]
[[-Procedure] <System.String[]>] [[-ExcludeProcedure] <System.String[]>] [-Force <Switch>] [-EnableException
<Switch>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
By default, all procedures found flagged as startup procedures are copied and then set as a startup procedure on
the destination instance. The -Procedure parameter is auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used
to copy only specific startup procedures.
If the procedure already exists on the destination, it will be skipped unless -Force is used.
PARAMETERS
-Destination [<Sqlcollaborative.Dbatools.Parameter.DbaInstanceParameter[]>]
Destination SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and the server must be SQL Server 2000 or higher.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-DestinationSqlCredential [<Pscredential>]
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-EnableException [<Switch>]
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ExcludeProcedure [<System.String[]>]
The startup procedure(s) to exclude. This list is auto-populated from the server.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Force [<Switch>]
If this switch is enabled, the custom error will be dropped and recreated if it already exists on Destination.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Procedure [<System.String[]>]
The startup procedure(s) to process. This list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all startup
procedures will be processed.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Source [<DbaInstanceParameter>]
Source SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or higher.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-SourceSqlCredential [<Pscredential>]
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 --------------------------
PS C:\\>Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster
Copies all startup procedures from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using Windows credentials. If procedure(s) with
the same name exists in the master database on sqlcluster, they will be skipped.
-------------------------- EXAMPLE 2 --------------------------
PS C:\\>Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -SourceSqlCredential $scred -Destination sqlcluster
-DestinationSqlCredential $dcred -Procedure logstartup -Force
Copies only the startup procedure, logstartup, from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using SQL credentials for
sqlserver2014a and Windows credentials for sqlcluster. If the procedure already exists on sqlcluster, it will be
updated because -Force was used.
-------------------------- EXAMPLE 3 --------------------------
PS C:\\>Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -ExcludeProcedure logstartup -Force
Copies all the startup procedures found on sqlserver2014a except logstartup to sqlcluster. If a startup procedure
with the same name exists on sqlcluster, it will be updated because -Force was used.
-------------------------- EXAMPLE 4 --------------------------
PS C:\\>Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -WhatIf -Force
Shows what would happen if the command were executed using force.
