functions/Get-DbaLastGoodCheckDb.ps1

Function Get-DbaLastGoodCheckDb {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Get date/time for last known good DBCC CHECKDB
 
.DESCRIPTION
Retrieves and compares the date/time for the last known good DBCC CHECKDB, as well as the creation date/time for the database.
 
This function supports SQL Server 2005+
 
Please note that this script uses the DBCC DBINFO() WITH TABLERESULTS. DBCC DBINFO has several known weak points, such as:
 - DBCC DBINFO is an undocumented feature/command.
 - The LastKnowGood timestamp is updated when a DBCC CHECKFILEGROUP is performed.
 - The LastKnowGood timestamp is updated when a DBCC CHECKDB WITH PHYSICAL_ONLY is performed.
 - The LastKnowGood timestamp does not get updated when a database in READ_ONLY.
 
An empty ($null) LastGoodCheckDb result indicates that a good DBCC CHECKDB has never been performed.
 
SQL Server 2008R2 has a "bug" that causes each databases to possess two dbi_dbccLastKnownGood fields, instead of the normal one.
This script will only displaythis function to only display the newest timestamp. If -Verbose is specified, the function will announce every time more than one dbi_dbccLastKnownGood fields is encountered.
 
.PARAMETER SqlInstance
The SQL Server that you're connecting to.
 
.PARAMETER SqlCredential
Credential object used to connect to the SQL Server as a different user
 
.PARAMETER Databases
Return information for only specific databases
 
.PARAMETER Exclude
Return information for all but these specific databases
     
.PARAMETER Silent
Use this switch to disable any kind of verbose messages
