I am trying to figure out how to restore a database from one managed SQL instance to another. I'm following the tutorials, but I keep running into inscrutable error messages.
Here's my command:
Restore-AzSqlInstanceDatabase `
-Name "SomeDatabase" `
-InstanceName "our-oltp-dev" `
-ResourceGroupName "dev-managedsqlinstances" `
-PointInTime "4/7/2020 12:00:00" `
-TargetInstanceDatabaseName "SomeDatabase_FROM_DEV" `
-TargetInstanceName "our-oltp-sandbox" `
-TargetResourceGroupName "sandbox-managedsqlinstances"
Here's the output:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Restore-AzSqlInstanceDatabase `
-Name "SomeDatabase" `
-InstanceName "our-oltp-dev" `
-ResourceGroupName "dev-managedsqlinstances" `
-PointInTime "4/7/2020 12:00:00" `
-TargetInstanceDatabaseName "SomeDatabase_FROM_DEV" `
-TargetInstanceName "our-oltp-sandbox" `
-TargetResourceGroupName "sandbox-managedsqlinstances"
Restore-AzSqlInstanceDatabase : Parameter set cannot be resolved using the specified named parameters.

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Restore-AzSqlInstanceDatabase], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : AmbiguousParameterSet,Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Sql.ManagedDatabase.Cmdlet.RestoreAzureRmSqlManagedDatabase
It's a copy-and-paste from the Azure docs; so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
As mentioned in the comment, you need to pass the PointInTime as a DateTime instead of String, you could specify the 4/7/2020 12:00:00 as below.
Sample:
$PointInTime = Get-Date -Year 2020 -Month 4 -Day 7 -Hour 12 -Minute 0 -Second 0
Restore-AzSqlInstanceDatabase `
-Name "SomeDatabase" `
-InstanceName "our-oltp-dev" `
-ResourceGroupName "dev-managedsqlinstances" `
-PointInTime $PointInTime `
-TargetInstanceDatabaseName "SomeDatabase_FROM_DEV" `
-TargetInstanceName "our-oltp-sandbox" `
-TargetResourceGroupName "sandbox-managedsqlinstances"

I'm trying to use the New-AzWebAppCertificate cmdlet that creates a new certificate but I want to get the thumbprint after creation.
I have tried the following command that didn't work.
$certificate = New-AzWebAppCertificate -Name $apiName `
-ResourceGroupName $settings.resource `
-WebAppName $apiName `
-HostName $domainName `
-AddBinding -SslState 'SniEnabled' `
Write-Host $certificate.Thumbprint
But $certificate variable is empty.
Also, I've tried adding -OutVariable
New-AzWebAppCertificate -Name $apiName `
-ResourceGroupName $settings.resource `
-WebAppName $apiName `
-HostName $domainName `
-AddBinding -SslState 'SniEnabled' `
-OutVariable out
But still don't work..
If you read the documentation you will find that they are supporting common parameters such as -OutVariable and also the cmdlet produces PSCertificate output. But in fact, none of them are working.
I am trying to add subscription to storage account using New-AzEventGridSubscription. The subscription should be triggered by blob modification in a container and put message to a certain queue. I created the following script:
$ResourceGroup = "test"
$includedEventTypes = "Microsoft.Storage.BlobCreated", "Microsoft.Storage.BlobDeleted"
New-AzEventGridSubscription `
-ResourceId "/subscriptions/[id]/resourceGroups/[group]/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/[name]" `
-EventSubscriptionName DummyName `
-Endpoint "/subscriptions/[id]/resourceGroups/[group]/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/[name]/queueServices/default/queues/my-queue" `
-ResourceGroup $ResourceGroup `
-EndpointType "storagequeue" `
-SubjectBeginsWith "prefix" `
-SubjectEndsWith "suffix"
but it throws an error:
New-AzEventGridSubscription : Parameter set cannot be resolved using the specified named parameters.
At line:1 char:1
+ New-AzEventGridSubscription `
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [New-AzEventGridSubscription], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : AmbiguousParameterSet,Microsoft.Azure.Commands.EventGrid.NewAzureEventGridSubscription
I made similar command to add subscription to a custom topic, which worked well:
New-AzEventGridSubscription `
-ResourceGroup $ResourceGroup `
-EventSubscriptionName SubscriptionName `
-TopicName MyCustomTopic `
-EndpointType "storagequeue" `
-Endpoint "/subscriptions/[id]/resourceGroups/[group]/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/[account]/queueServices/default/queues/my-queue" `
-SubjectBeginsWith "prefix" `
-SubjectEndsWith "suffix"
I tried several modifications, but to no avail. What am I doing wrong?
After throwing out "ResourceGroup" parameter, reordering other parameters, and putting some arguments into variables, I finally managed to get my script up and running... If anyone ever needs similar stuff, here it is:
$subscriptionId = "<id>"
$ResourceGroup = "<group>"
$includedEventTypes = "Microsoft.Storage.BlobCreated", "Microsoft.Storage.BlobDeleted"
$storageAccount = "<account name>"
$endpoint = "/subscriptions/"+$subscriptionId+"/resourceGroups/"+$ResourceGroup+"/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/"+$storageAccount+"/queueServices/default/queues/my-queue"
$resourceId = "/subscriptions/"+$subscriptionId+"/resourceGroups/"+$ResourceGroup+"/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/"+$storageAccount
$subject = "prefix"
New-AzEventGridSubscription `
-EventSubscriptionName MySubscriptionName `
-Endpoint $endpoint `
-ResourceId $resourceId `
-EndpointType "storagequeue" `
-SubjectBeginsWith $subject `
-SubjectEndsWith "suffix" `
-IncludedEventType $includedEventTypes
I'm running into a weird issue here.
I'm trying to use powershell to create individual availbility alerts for all my storageaccounts.
My code is this
$storageaccounts= get-azstorageaccount |get-azresource
$criteria = New-AzMetricAlertRuleV2Criteria -MetricName "Availability" `
-TimeAggregation average `
-Operator lessthan `
-Threshold 100
foreach ($storageaccount in $storageaccounts){
Add-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 -Name "$storageaccount.Name availbility" `
-ResourceGroupName $RG.ResourceGroupName `
-WindowSize 00:05:00 `
-Frequency 00:01:00 `
-Description "Catching storageaccount availbility" `
-condition $criteria `
-ActionGroup $action `
-Severity 3 `
-TargetResourceId "$storageaccount.resourceid"
}
however I keep getting this error
Add-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 : Exception type: ErrorResponseException,
Message: Null/Empty, Code: Null, Status code:BadRequest, Reason phrase: Bad Request
I think the problem is due to
Add-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 -Name "$storageaccount.Name availbility"
if i put storageaccount.name into double quotation, i'm getting
Microsoft.Azure.Commands.ResourceManager.Cmdlets.SdkModels.PSResource.Name
I also tried this
foreach ($storageaccount in $storageaccounts){
$sa=[string]$storageaccount.Name
Add-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 -Name "$sa availbility"
but still gives me the same error
How can i fix this?
There are two problems in the command that you are using:
Name: You can pass the name as: "$($storageaccount.StorageAccountName) availbility"
Resource Id: Resource Id which you want to pass is stored in the property "id" of storage account not the "resourceId".
Updated code:
Add-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 -Name "$($storageaccount.StorageAccountName) availbility" `
-ResourceGroupName $RG.ResourceGroupName `
-WindowSize 00:05:00 `
-Frequency 00:01:00 `
-Description "Catching storageaccount availbility" `
-condition $criteria `
-ActionGroup $action `
-Severity 3 `
-TargetResourceId $storageaccount.id
Attempting to add an extension when not detected but keep failing to find the secret sauce to get this to work. Mind you I am a BASH guy and this is a first foray into PowerShell..

In your case, you just need to use the if(){}else{} statement, try the script as below instead of the ForEach part of yours, it works fine on my side.
ForEach ($vm in $vms) {
$cseStatus = Get-AzVMCustomScriptExtension `
-ResourceGroupName $vm.ResourceGroupName `
-VMName $vm.Name `
-Name $cseName `
-Status `
-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if ($cseStatus){
Write-Host "The extension has been set for" $vm.Name
}else{
Write-Host "Enabling Custom Script Extension for" $vm.Name
Set-AzVMCustomScriptExtension `
-ResourceGroupName $vm.ResourceGroup `

-Name $cseName `
-TypeHandlerVersion "1.1" `
-StorageAccountName "VulnerabilityManagementTools" `
-FileName "VulnerabilityManagementInstaller.ps1" `
-ContainerName "VulnerabilityManagementTools"
}
}
Test result:
You'll need to create an Azure AD Service Principal using password authentication and use the credentials of this to pass to the Connect-AzAccount cmdlet as follows:
$credentials = Get-Credential
Connect-AzAccount -ServicePrincipal -Credentials $credentials
The service account will need to have the necessary permissions to use the Set-AzVMCustomScriptExtensions cmdlet.

I have a script to handle some parameters and deploy an arm template with those parameters, and then create a database using a bacpac file in my storage account. When my script is trying to invoke the cmdlet "New-AzSqlDatabaseImport" i'm getting "NotFound: Entity not found to invoke import"
I have trying updating all of my Az modules, and tried to run the cmdlet manually and fill in the parameters manually.
Write-Host "Creating database and importing data"
$bloblink = (Get-AzStorageAccount -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroup -Name $StorageName).PrimaryEndpoints.Blob
$uri = $bloblink + $containerName + "/" + $bacpacFile
$importRequest = New-AzSqlDatabaseImport `
-ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroup `
-ServerName $SQLServer `
-DatabaseName $database_ql_name `
-DatabaseMaxSizeBytes $databaseMaxSizeBytes `

-StorageUri $uri `
-Edition $DatabaseEdition `
-ServiceObjectiveName $DatabaseSize `
-AdministratorLogin $dbUsername `
-AdministratorLoginPassword $dbPassword
I expect it to start a job on Azure to create the database and start the import job.
This is the error im getting instead (i replaced the full path).

I just encountered the same error. I found that the -ServerName argument is case-sensitive. So check your $SQLServer-variable.
