Examples

Example 1

This example will add connect permission to the credentials provided in $SqlServiceCredential to the endpoint named 'DefaultMirrorEndpoint'.

Configuration Example

        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential]
        $SqlServiceCredential
    )

    }
}

Example 2

    }
}

Example 3

This example will add connect permission to both an Always On primary replica and an Always On secondary replica, and where each replica has a different SQL service account.
