function Watch-DbaDbLogin {
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Tracks SQL Server logins: which host they came from, what database they're using, and what program is being used to log in.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        Watch-DbaDbLogin uses SQL Server DMV's to track logins into a SQL Server table. This is helpful when you need to migrate a SQL Server and update connection strings, but have inadequate documentation on which servers/applications are logging into your SQL instance.
 
        Running this script every 5 minutes for a week should give you a sufficient idea about database and login usage.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The SQL Server that stores the Watch database.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlCms
        Specifies a Central Management Server to query for a list of servers to watch.
 
    .PARAMETER ServersFromFile
        Specifies a file containing a list of servers to watch. This file must contain one server name per line.
 
    .PARAMETER Database
        The name of the Watch database.
 
    .PARAMETER Table
        The name of the Watch table. By default, this is DbaTools-WatchDbLogins.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
    .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.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Watch-DbaDbLogin -SqlInstance sqlserver -SqlCms SqlCms1
 
        A list of all database instances within the Central Management Server SqlCms1 is generated. Using this list, the script enumerates all the processes and gathers login information and saves it to the table Dblogins in the DatabaseLogins database on SQL Server sqlserver.
 
    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Watch-DbaDbLogin -SqlInstance sqlcluster -Database CentralAudit -ServersFromFile .\sqlservers.txt
 
        A list of servers is gathered from the file sqlservers.txt in the current directory. Using this list, the script enumerates all the processes and gathers login information and saves it to the table Dblogins in the CentralAudit database on SQL Server sqlcluster.
 
    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Watch-DbaDbLogin -SqlInstance sqlserver -SqlCms SqlCms1 -SqlCredential $cred
 
        A list of servers is generated using database instance names within the SQL2014Clusters group on the Central Management Server SqlCms1. Using this list, the script enumerates all the processes and gathers login information and saves it to the table Dblogins in the DatabaseLogins database on sqlserver.
