Description

The Set-SqlAuthenticationMode cmdlet configures the authentication mode of the target instance of SQL Server.

SQL ServerCloud Adapter must be running and accessible on the computer that hosts the instance of SQL Server.

This cmdlet supports the following modes of operation:

Specify the instance Windows PowerShell path.
Specify the server object.
Specify the ServerInstance object of the target instance of SQL Server.

Note: This cmdlet ceased to work a long time ago. It's been removed in version 22 of the module.

Examples

Example 1: Configure the SQL Server authentication mode

PS C:\> CD SQLSERVER:\SQL\Computer\Instance;
PS SQLSERVER:\SQL\Computer\Instance> Set-SqlAuthenticationMode -Credential $Credential -Mode Integrated -ForceServiceRestart -AcceptSelfSignedCertificate

Example 2: Configure the SQL Server authentication mode on all SQL Server instances

PS C:\> Get-SqlInstance -Credential $Credential -MachineName "Computer005" | Set-SqlAuthenticationMode -Credential $Credential -Mode Mixed -SqlCredential $sqlCredential -NoServiceRestart -AcceptSelfSignedCertificate

This command gets all instances of SQL Server on the computer named Computer005 and configures the authentication mode to Mixed, with the provided SQL credentials for each one of them. The SQL Server service is not restarted automatically. The self-signed certificate of the target machine is automatically accepted without prompting the user.
