Remove

• SqlServerDsc
  • BREAKING CHANGE: Since the operating system Windows Server 2008 R2 and
    the product SQL Server 2008 R2 has gone end-of-life the DSC resources
    will no longer try to maintain compatibility with them. Moving forward,
    and including this release, there may be code changes that will break
    the resource on Windows Server 2008 R2 or with SQL Server 2008 R2
    (issue #1514).

Deprecated

The documentation, examples, unit test, and integration tests have been
removed for these deprecated resources. These resources will be removed
in a future release.

• SqlDatabaseOwner
  • This resource is now deprecated. The functionality is now covered by
    a property in the resource SqlDatabase (issue #966).
• SqlDatabaseRecoveryModel
  • This resource is now deprecated. The functionality is now covered by
    a property in the resource SqlDatabase (issue #967).
• SqlServerEndpointState
  • This resource is now deprecated. The functionality is covered by a
    property in the resource SqlServerEndpoint (issue #968).

    endpoint type that is supported is the database mirror endpoint type
    (DatabaseMirroring).
  • Added the property State to be able to specify if the endpoint should
    be running, stopped, or disabled. This property was moved from the now

  • The helper function Restart-SqlServer learned the new parameter
    OwnerNode. The parameter OwnerNode takes an array of Cluster node
    names. Using this parameter the cluster group will only be taken
    offline and back online if the cluster group owner is one specified
    in this parameter.

Fixed

• SqlServerDsc
  • The regular expression for minor-version-bump-message in the file
    GitVersion.yml was changed to only raise minor version when the
    commit message contain the word add, adds, minor, feature,
    or features.
  • Now code coverage is reported to Codecov, and a codecov.yml was added.
  • Updated to support DscResource.Common v0.7.1.
• SqlSetup
  • The property SqlTempdbLogFileGrowth and SqlTempdbFileGrowth now returns
    the correct values. Previously the value of the growth was wrongly
    divided by 1KB even if the value was in percent. Now the value for growth
    is the sum of the average of MB and average of the percentage.
  • The function Get-TargetResource was changed so that the property
    SQLTempDBDir will now return the database tempdb's property
    PrimaryFilePath.
  • BREAKING CHANGE: Logic that was under feature flag DetectionSharedFeatures
    was made the default and old logic that was used to detect shared features
    was removed (issue #1290).
    This was implemented because the previous implementation did not work
    fully with SQL Server 2017.
  • Much of the code was refactored into units (functions) to be easier to test.
    Due to the size of the code the unit tests ran for an abnormal long time,
    after this refactoring the unit tests runs much quicker.
• README.md
  • Changed to point to CONTRIBUTING.md on master branch to avoid "404 Page not found"
    (issue #1508).
• SqlAlias
  • BREAKING CHANGE: The parameter ServerName is now non-mandatory to
    prevent ping-pong behavior (issue #1502).
    The ServerName is not returned as an empty string when the protocol is
    Named Pipes.
• SqlRs
  • Fix typo in the schema parameter SuppressRestart description
    and in the parameter description in the README.md.
• SqlSetup
  • Update integration tests to correctly detect sysadmins because of changes
    to the build worker.

v14.0.0-preview0005

[v14.0.0-preview0005]

Added

• SqlServerDsc
  • Added new resource SqlServerProtocol (issue #1377).
• SqlSetup
  • A read only property IsClustered was added that can be used to determine
    if the instance is clustered.
• SqlServerDsc.Common
  • The helper function Restart-SqlService was improved to handle Failover
    Clusters better. Now the SQL Server service will only be taken offline
    and back online again if the service is online to begin with.
  • The helper function Restart-SqlServer learned the new parameter
    OwnerNode. The parameter OwnerNode takes an array of Cluster node
    names. Using this parameter the cluster group will only be taken
    offline and back online if the cluster group owner is one specified
    in this parameter.

Changed
