The object can be used to take action against its name or IPAddress. First ICMP is used to test the connection, and get the connected IPAddress. If your local Powershell version is not higher than 2, WMI is tried to get the computername. If not, CIM is used, first via WinRM, and if not successful, via DCOM. .PARAMETER ComputerName The Server that you're connecting to. This can be the name of a computer, a SMO object, an IP address or a SQL Instance. .PARAMETER Credential Credential object used to connect to the SQL Server as a different user .NOTES Author: Klaas Vandenberghe ( @PowerDBAKlaas ) dbatools PowerShell module (https://dbatools.io) Copyright (C) 2016 Chrissy LeMaire This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
