I've got next error when I'm trying to create database script:
Exception calling "EnumScriptTransfer" with "0" argument(s): "Script
transfer failed. " At C:\temp\Test.ps1:126 char:5
+ $transfer.EnumScriptTransfer();
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Same script is working properly on the other computer. So I assume that the reason is in SQL server version, or rights.
Any ideas?
Code:
echo "Scripting database $dbname .."
set-psdebug -strict
$ErrorActionPreference = "stop" # you can opt to stagger on, bleeding, if an error occurs
# Load SMO assembly, and if we're running SQL 2008 DLLs load the SMOExtended and SQLWMIManagement libraries
$ms='Microsoft.SqlServer'
$v = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName( "$ms.SMO")
$ver = (($v.FullName.Split(','))[1].Split('='))[1];
$vtmp=$ver.Split('.')[0];
echo " SMO version is $ver"
if ($vtmp -ge 9) {
echo " Running SQL 2008, load the SMOExtended .."
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("$ms.SMOExtended") | out-null
}
$My="$ms.Management.Smo" #
$s = new-object ("$My.Server") $DataSource
if ($s.Version -eq $null ){Throw "Can't find the instance $Datasource"}
$ver = $s.Version
echo " SQL Server version is $ver"
$db= $s.Databases[$Database]
if ($db.name -ne $Database){Throw "Can't find the database '$Database' in $Datasource"};
$transfer = new-object ("$My.Transfer") $db
if ($transfer -eq $null ){Throw "Can't create transfer object"}
$transfer.Options.ScriptBatchTerminator = $true # this only goes to the file
$transfer.Options.ToFileOnly = $true # this only goes to the file
$transfer.Options.ScriptData = $true;
$transfer.Options.FileName = $BackupFile;
$tmp = $transfer.Options
echo " Transfer options are: $tmp"
echo " $transfer"
$transfer.EnumScriptTransfer();
Output:

Tried to add try-catch block, but this does not work. No idea why:

Catch

$innerMsg = $_.Exception.InnerException.Message;

I am running into an issue with doing a Powershell SQL restore. I have this code

$smoRestore = new-object("Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Restore")
$smoRestore.NoRecovery = $false;
$smoRestore.ReplaceDatabase = $true;
$smoRestore.Action = "Database"
$smoRestorePercentCompleteNotification = 10;
$smoRestore.Devices.Add($backupDevice)
$smoRestoreDetails = $smoRestore.ReadBackupHeader($server)
"Database Name from Backup Header : " +$smoRestoreDetails.Rows[0]["DatabaseName"]
$smoRestore.Database =$smoRestoreDetails.Rows[0]["DatabaseName"]
$smoRestoreFile = New-Object("Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.RelocateFile")
$smoRestoreLog = New-Object("Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.RelocateFile")
$smoRestoreFile.LogicalFileName = $smoRestoreDetails.Rows[0]["DatabaseName"]
$smoRestoreFile.PhysicalFileName = $server.Information.MasterDBPath + "\" + $smoRestore.Database + "_Data.mdf"

$smoRestore.RelocateFiles.Add($smoRestoreFile)
$smoRestore.RelocateFiles.Add($smoRestoreLog)
$smoRestore.SqlRestore($server)
Everything works fine if I run this. However, I would like to provide a variable for which backup to restore. So I changed the top part of the code to this:
$path = 'C:\Temp'
$db_name = 'User'
$file = Get-ChildItem $path '*.bak' | Select-Object basename | Where-Object {$_.basename -like $db_name + '*' }
$backupFile = $path + '\' + $file
When I make this change, I start getting the below error.
Exception calling "ReadBackupHeader" with "1" argument(s): "An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch."
At line:23 char:1
+ $smoRestoreDetails = $smoRestore.ReadBackupHeader($server)

Not really sure why it will not accept the $file variable that I am passing. If I look at the variable, it is returning the right value.
Stupid issue on my part. $file did not include the extension. Adding the .bak to $file fixed the issue.

I am trying to automate the process of importing GNAF (location dataset for Australia) into a new database.

The script I am using to actually import the data into SQL server is almost identical to the one found on this page:
https://www.rednotebluenote.com/2016/04/importing-psma-geocoded-national-address-file-g-naf-to-sql-server/
It works fine directly in SSMS. Also, I don't think my error match is picking up the correct error, instead it is matching to all errors.
--- Update ----------------------------------------------
Managed to get it to run when i restart the MSSQLSERVER service at the start of the function.
The problem now is that it times out:
Invoke-Sqlcmd : Execution Timeout Expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

It only runs for around 45 seconds before this error pops up, the actual script being run takes around 3 - 5 minutes run in SSMA.
(The function has been updated a bit)
You need to terminate any existing, open connections to the database.
Here's the easiest method (it basically forces all other connections to be killed)
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE name ='GNAF')
BEGIN
ALTER DATABASE GNAF SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE;
DROP DATABASE GNAF;
END
;
I'm trying to make a script that checks how long the computers on a network are on, and if they are on for more then 10 days they need to restart. I'm planning to run the script automatically with task manager every Sunday.
Thanks to #vonPryz I've got something like this now:
$clients = get-content "C:\Documents\lijstcomputers.txt"
foreach ($client in $clients) {
if (test-connection -computername $client -BufferSize 16 -Count 1 -Quiet) {
write-Host $client is online
$uptime = (get-date) - (gcim Win32_OperatingSystem -computer $client).LastBootUpTime
$startTime = [Management.ManagementDateTimeConverter]::ToDateTime((gwmi Win32_OperatingSystem -computer $client).lastbootuptime)
if( $uptime.days -ge 10) {
restart-computer -computername $client
add-content -path "c:\path\to\log.txt" -value "$client, $startTime, $uptime"
}
}
else {
write-Host $client is offline
}
}
But now I'm getting this error:
gcim : WinRM cannot complete the operation. Verify that the specified computer name is valid, that the computer is accessible over the network, and
that a firewall exception for the WinRM service is enabled and allows access from this computer. By default, the WinRM firewall exception for publ

Since you already got some parts covered, this isn't just a plz give me teh codez and thus warrants help. So let's outline how the whole script should look.
# Write computer names into a file, one per row for easier management
$clients = get-content "c:\ListOfComputers.txt"
foreach ($client in $clients) {
# If computer's not up, there's no need to check uptime
if (test-connection -computername $client -BufferSize 16 -Count 1 -Quiet) {
write-Host $client is online
# Get uptime
$uptime = (get-date) - (gcim Win32_OperatingSystem -computer $client).LastBootUpTime
# Get start time
$startTime = [Management.ManagementDateTimeConverter]::ToDateTime((gwmi Win32_OperatingSystem -computer $client).lastbootuptime)
# Restart the client if uptime's at least 10 days.
if( $uptime.days -ge 10) {
restart-computer -computername $client
# Add client name, start date and uptime into a log file
add-content -path "c:\path\to\log.txt" -value "$client, $startTime, $uptime"
}
}
else {
write-Host $client is offline
}
}
This skeleton can be further improved by adding some error handling and, say, proper CSV export.
I have a PowerShell script which works well when I run it on server with SQL Server default instance (MSSQLSERVER) but the same script fails on a server with a named instance (MSSQL$instance)
For the default instance (MSSQLSERVER)
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo")
$service = Get-service -name 'MSSQLSERVER'
$status = $service.status
$CreateDB = "db-Test"
if ( $status -eq "Running" )
{
'Success' | Out-File -FilePath c:\sqltest.log -Encoding ASCII
$srv = new-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$db = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database($srv, "$CreateDB")
$db.Create()
$db.CreateDate
}
else
{
'Failed' | Out-File -FilePath c:\sqltest.log -Encoding ASCII
}
Above script works very well. But below script throws error :
For named instance :
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo")
$service = Get-service -name 'MSSQL$instancename'
$status = $service.status
$CreateDB = "db-Test"
if ( $status -eq "Running" )
{
'Success' | Out-File -FilePath c:\sqltest.log -Encoding ASCII
$srv = new-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$db = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database($srv, "$CreateDB")
$db.Create()
$db.CreateDate
}
else
{
'Failed' | Out-File -FilePath c:\sqltest.log -Encoding ASCII
}
Above script for named SQL instance throws below error :
New-Object : Exception calling ".ctor" with "2" argument(s): "SetParent failed for Database 'Netmagic-Test'. "
