function New-DbaLogShippingPrimaryDatabase {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            New-DbaLogShippingPrimaryDatabase add the primary database to log shipping
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            New-DbaLogShippingPrimaryDatabase will add the primary database to log shipping.
            This is executed on the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER SqlInstance
            SQL Server instance. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or greater.
 
        .PARAMETER SqlCredential
            Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
        .PARAMETER Database
            Database to set up log shipping for.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupDirectory
            Is the path to the backup folder on the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupJob
            Is the name of the SQL Server Agent job on the primary server that copies the backup into the backup folder.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupJobID
            The SQL Server Agent job ID associated with the backup job on the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupRetention
            Is the length of time, in minutes, to retain the log backup file in the backup directory on the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupShare
            Is the network path to the backup directory on the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER BackupThreshold
            Is the length of time, in minutes, after the last backup before a threshold_alert error is raised.
            The default is 60.
 
        .PARAMETER CompressBackup
            Enables the use of backup compression
 
        .PARAMETER ThresholdAlert
            Is the length of time, in minutes, when the alert is to be raised when the backup threshold is exceeded.
            The default is 14,420.
 
        .PARAMETER HistoryRetention
            Is the length of time in minutes in which the history will be retained.
            The default is 14420.
 
        .PARAMETER MonitorServer
            Is the name of the monitor server.
            The default is the name of the primary server.
 
        .PARAMETER MonitorCredential
            Allows you to login to enter a secure credential.
            This is only needed in combination with MonitorServerSecurityMode having either a 0 or 'sqlserver' value.
            To use: $scred = Get-Credential, then pass $scred object to the -MonitorCredential parameter.
 
        .PARAMETER MonitorServerSecurityMode
            The security mode used to connect to the monitor server. Allowed values are 0, "sqlserver", 1, "windows"
            The default is 1 or Windows.
 
        .PARAMETER ThresholdAlertEnabled
            Specifies whether an alert will be raised when backup threshold is exceeded.
            The default is 0.
 
        .PARAMETER WhatIf
            Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.
 
        .PARAMETER Confirm
            Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command.
 
        .PARAMETER EnableException
            By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
            This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
            Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
 
        .PARAMETER Force
            The force parameter will ignore some errors in the parameters and assume defaults.
            It will also remove the any present schedules with the same name for the specific job.
