HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows PowerShell Cmdlet Support for SQL Databases

The HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows 7.0.0 and later provides PowerShell cmdlets that work with SQL databases. You can use the cmdlets to perform tasks such as:
  • Retrieve details about SQL databases and snapshots that contain SQL databases.
  • Create application-consistent clones of SQL databases in a storage volume collection.
  • Create crash-consistent snapshots of SQL databases that reside on storage volumes in a storage volume collection.

There are some restrictions that apply to the cmdlets. For example, the cmdlets support spanned databases; however, volumes in a database can belong to only one array. If you use the pipeline option with Invoke-NimDatabaseClone, the cmdlet clones only the last database that is returned.

For more details about working with the cmdlets, see the sections on the individual cmdlets. HPE Storage Toolkit for Windows PowerShell Cmdlet Summary provides a table that summarizes all the Windows toolkit PowerShell cmdlets.
