About the Book

This Wrox Blox shows how to communicate with SQL Server using SQL Management Objects instantiated on-the-fly in Windows PowerShell scripts. Topics include how to create Windows PowerShell scripts that use SQL Management Objects (SMO) to manage and program SQL Server. In addition, you will learn about areas of potential difficulty and see how to avoid them—for example, the use of '$' in instance name, quote nesting rules, connection pooling, and schemata. The explanations in this Wrox Blox are focused on numerous code examples, and show you how to do the following: load SMO; create a server object; get a user’s credentials from the UI into a safestring; connect to SQL Server using SQL Server authentication; connect to SQL Server using Windows authentication; profile a server instance by examining its properties; use WMI to examine and configure a server’s Windows service; use PowerShell cmdlets to start, stop, and restart a service; check for the existence of a database; verify a file path; save data in a csv file; retrieve data from a csv file; create a database; create a schema; create a table; insert data in a table; execute ad hoc T-SQL queries; retrieve information about views; create reports in HTML format; display HTML reports in a browser window; launch a Windows process; and tweak data format. A downloadable ZIP archive is included which contains all the example scripts, as well as additional scripts.
