NAME Remove-DbaTrace
SYNOPSIS
Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server.
SYNTAX
Remove-DbaTrace [[-SqlInstance] <Sqlcollaborative.Dbatools.Parameter.DbaInstanceParameter[]>] [[-SqlCredential]
<Pscredential>] [[-Id] <System.Int32[]>] [[-InputObject] <System.Object[]>] [-EnableException <Switch>]
[<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server.
PARAMETERS
-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.
