DESCRIPTION

Disables Force Encryption for a SQL Server instance. Note that this requires access to the Windows Server, not the

SQL instance itself.

Allows you to login to the computer (not SQL Server instance) using alternative Windows credentials.



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.

Default value

Accept pipeline input? False

Accept wildcard characters? false



-SqlInstance [<Sqlcollaborative.Dbatools.Parameter.DbaInstanceParameter[]>]
