function Remove-DbaTrace { <# .SYNOPSIS Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server. .DESCRIPTION Stops and closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server. .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 Id A list of trace ids. .PARAMETER InputObject Internal parameter for piping. .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: Security, Trace 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/Remove-DbaTrace .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Remove-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 Stops and removes all traces on sql2008 .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Remove-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 -Id 1 Stops and removes all trace with ID 1 on sql2008 .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaTrace -SqlInstance sql2008 | Out-GridView -PassThru | Remove-DbaTrace Stops and removes selected traces on sql2008 #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)] param ( [DbaInstanceParameter[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [int[]]$Id, [parameter(ValueFromPipeline)] [object[]]$InputObject, [switch]$EnableException ) process { if (-not $InputObject -and $SqlInstance) { $InputObject = Get-DbaTrace -SqlInstance $SqlInstance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential -Id $Id } foreach ($trace in $InputObject) { if (-not $trace.id -and -not $trace.Parent) { Stop-Function -Message "Input is of the wrong type.
