function Get-DbaPowerPlan { <# .SYNOPSIS Gets the Power Plan settings for compliance with best practices, which recommend High Performance for SQL Server. .DESCRIPTION Gets the Power Plan settings on a computer against best practices recommendations. .PARAMETER ComputerName The server(s) to check Power Plan settings on. .PARAMETER Credential Specifies a PSCredential object to use in authenticating to the server(s), instead of the current user account. .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: PowerPlan 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/Get-DbaPowerPlan .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaPowerPlan -ComputerName sql2017 Gets the Power Plan settings for sql2017 .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaPowerPlan -ComputerName sql2017 -Credential ad\admin Gets the Power Plan settings for sql2017 using an alternative credential #> param ( [parameter(Mandatory, ValueFromPipeline)] [DbaInstance[]]$ComputerName, [PSCredential]$Credential, [switch]$EnableException ) process { foreach ($computer in $ComputerName) { $null = Test-ElevationRequirement -ComputerName $computer -Continue $server = Resolve-DbaNetworkName -ComputerName $computer -Credential $Credential $computerResolved = $server.FullComputerName if (-not $computerResolved) { Stop-Function -Message "Couldn't resolve hostname.
