Stuart Moore describes the updated Restore-DbaDatabase cmdlet:
The biggest change is that Restore-DbaDatabase is now a wrapper around 5 public functions. The 5 functions are:
- Get-DbabackupInformation
- Select-DbabackupInformation
- Format–DbabackupInformation
- Test–DbabackupInformation
- Invoke-DbaAdvancedRestore
These can be used individually for advanced restore scenarios, I’ll go through some examples in a later post.
Stuart then provides additional information at the various steps, explaining at a high level how things work.
