Description

The New-SqlHADREndpoint cmdlet creates a database mirroring endpoint on a SQL Server instance. This endpoint is required on every server instance that hosts an availability replica for any availability group. Each server instance can only have one database mirroring endpoint. If a server instance possesses a database mirroring endpoint, use the existing endpoint.

Examples

Example 1: Create a database mirroring endpoint

PS C:\> New-SqlHADREndpoint -Path "SQLSERVER:\Sql\Computer\Instance" -Name "MainEndpoint"

This command creates a database mirroring endpoint named MainEndpoint on the server instance located at the specified path. This endpoint uses the default port, 5022.

Example 2: Create a database mirroring endpoint that requires encryption

PS C:\> New-SqlHADREndpoint -Path "SQLSERVER:\Sql\Computer\Instance" -Name "MainEndpoint" -Port 4022 -EncryptionAlgorithm Aes -Encryption Required

This command creates a database mirroring endpoint named MainEndpoint on the server instance located at the specified path. This endpoint listens on port 4022. The endpoint uses the AES algorithm for encryption and requires that connections use encryption.

Example 3: Create a database mirroring endpoint that is encrypted with a certificate

PS C:\> New-SqlHADREndpoint -Path "SQLSERVER:\Sql\Computer\Instance" -Name "MainEndpoint" -AuthenticationOrder Certificate -Certificate "EncryptionCertificate"

This command creates a database mirroring endpoint named MainEndpoint on the server instance located at the specified path. This endpoint uses the certificate named EncryptionCertificate to authenticate connections.

Example 4: Create a database mirroring endpoint script

PS C:\> New-SqlHADREndpoint -Path "SQLSERVER:\Sql\Computer\Instance" -Name "MainEndpoint" -Script

This command outputs the Transact-SQL script that creates a database mirroring endpoint named MainEndpoint on the server instance located at the specified path. The endpoint is not actually created by this command.

Parameters

-AccessToken

The access token used to authenticate to SQL Server, as an alternative to user/password or Windows Authentication.

This can be used, for example, to connect to SQL Azure DB and SQL Azure Managed Instance using a Service Principal or a Managed Identity.

The parameter to use can be either a string representing the token or a PSAccessToken object as returned by running Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Encrypt

The encryption type to use when connecting to SQL Server.

This value maps to the Encrypt property SqlConnectionEncryptOption on the SqlConnection object of the Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver.

In v22 of the module, the default is Optional (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be 'Mandatory', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Parameter properties

Type:String
Default value:None
Accepted values:Mandatory, Optional, Strict
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Encryption

Specifies the encryption option for the endpoint.

The default value is Required.

Parameter properties

Type:EndpointEncryption
Default value:None
Accepted values:Disabled, Supported, Required
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-EncryptionAlgorithm

Specifies the form of encryption used by the endpoint.

By default the endpoint will use Aes encryption.

NOTE: The RC4 algorithm is only supported for backward compatibility. New material can only be encrypted using RC4 or RC4_128 when the database is in compatibility level 90 or 100, but this is not recommended. For increased security, use a newer algorithm such as one of the AES algorithms instead.

Parameter properties

Type:EndpointEncryptionAlgorithm
Default value:None
Accepted values:None, RC4, Aes, AesRC4, RC4Aes
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named

Value from remaining arguments:False

-HostNameInCertificate

The host name to be used in validating the SQL Server TLS/SSL certificate. You must pass this parameter if your SQL Server instance is enabled for Force Encryption and you want to connect to an instance using hostname/shortname. If this parameter is omitted then passing the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) to -ServerInstance is necessary to connect to a SQL Server instance enabled for Force Encryption.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.
