    .SYNOPSIS
    Mounts an MS SQL Image
 
    .EXAMPLE
    New-AGMLibMSSQLMount
    You will be offered guided mode
 
    .EXAMPLE
    New-AGMLibMSSQLMount -appid 50322 -mountapplianceid 143112195179 -targethostid 51090 -sqlinstance "WIN-TARGET\SQLEXPRESS" -dbname "AdventureWorks2019"
    Mounts the latest snapshot of a SQL Server database to specified host using specified appliance.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    New-AGMLibMSSQLMount -appid 50318 -mountapplianceid 143112195179 -targethostid 51090 -sqlinstance "WIN-TARGET\SQLEXPRESS" -dbrenamelist "CRM,CRM1"
    Mounts the latest snapshot of a SQL Instance, mounting the CRM database but renaming it to CRM1 to specified host using specified appliance.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    New-AGMLibMSSQLMount -appid 50318 -mountapplianceid 143112195179 -targethostid 51090 -sqlinstance "WIN-TARGET\SQLEXPRESS" -dbrenamelist "AdventureWorks2019,test1;CRM,test2" -consistencygroupname "cg1mount"
    Mounts the latest snapshot of a SQL Instance, mounting two databases but changing the target DB names. Because two DBs are mounted a consistencygroup name is also needed.
     
    .EXAMPLE
    New-AGMLibMSSQLMount -appid 50318 -mountapplianceid 143112195179 -targethostid 51090 -sqlinstance "WIN-TARGET\SQLEXPRESS" -dbnamelist "AdventureWorks2019,CRM" -consistencygroupname "cg1mount"
    Mounts the latest snapshot of a SQL Instance, mounting two databases but not changing the target DB names (dbnamelist, not dbrenamelist). Because two DBs are mounted a consistencygroup name is also needed.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    A function to mount MS SQL Image
 
    * Image selection can be done three ways:
 
    1) Run this command in guided mode to learn the available images and select one
    2) Learn the imagename and specify that as part of the command with -imagename
    3) Learn the Appid and Cluster ID for the appliance that will mount the image and then use -appid and -mountapplianceid
    This will use the latest snapshot, StreamSnap or OnVault image on that appliance
 
    Note default values don't need to specified. So for instance these are both unnecessary: -recoverdb true -userlogins false
 
    * label
    -label Label for mount, recommended
 
    * mount host options:
    -sqlinstance The SQL instance on the host we are mounting into
    -targethostname The target host specified by name. Ideally use the next option
    -targethostid The target host specified by id
 
    * mounted app names
    -dbname If mounting only one DB use this option. This is the name of the new database that will be created.
    -dbnamelist If mounting more than one DB, use this comma separated. It is better to use -dbrenamelist
    -dbrenamelist Semicolon separated list of comma separated source db and target db. So if we have two source DBs, prod1 and prod2 and we mount them as dev1 and dev2 then: prod1,dev1;prod2,dev2
    -consistencygroupname If mounting more than one DB then you will need to specify a CG name. This is used on the Appliance side to group the new apps, the mounted host wont see this name
    -dbnamesuffix option to add a suffix. Use this with -dbnamelist
    -dbnameprefix option to add a prefix. Use this with -dbnamelist
     
    * Other options
 
    -mountpointperimage
    -recoverypoint The point in time to roll forward to, in ISO8601 format like 2020-09-02 19:00:02. Or the word 'latest' to apply all available logs
    -recoverymodel use either: "Same as source" (default) or "Simple" or "Full" or "Bulk logged"
    -overwrite use either: "no" (default) "stale" or "yes"
    -recoverdb true=Recover database after restore (default) false=Don't recovery database after restore
    -userlogins false=Don't recover user logins(default) true=Recover User Logins
    -discovery This is a switch, so if specified will run application discovery on the selected targethostid
    -mountapplianceid XXXX Runs the mount on the specified appliance
    -perfoption Used only with OnVault images, you can specify either: StorageOptimized, Balanced, PerformanceOptimized or MaximumPerformance
 
    * Reprotection:
 
    -sltid xxxx (short for Service Level Template ID) - if specified along with an slpid, will reprotect the mounted child app with the specified template and profile
    -slpid yyyy (short for Service Level Profile ID) - if specified along with an sltid, will reprotect the mounted child app with the specified template and profile
 
    * Username and password:
     
    -username This is the username (optional)
    -password This is the password in plain text (not a good idea)
    -base64password This is the password in base 64 encoding
    To create this:
    $password = 'passw0rd'
    $Bytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::Unicode.GetBytes($password)
    $base64password =[Convert]::ToBase64String($Bytes)
 
    * VMware specific options
    -mountmode use either nfs, vrdm or prdm
    -mapdiskstoallesxhosts Either true to do this or false to not do this. Default is false.
 
    * Monitoring options:
 
    -wait This will wait up to 2 minutes for the job to start, checking every 15 seconds to show you the job name
    -monitor Same as -wait but will also run Get-AGMLibFollowJobStatus to monitor the job to completion
