Using PowerShell
To create a database mirroring endpoint
Change directory (cd) to the server instance for which you want to create the database mirroring endpoint.
Use the New-SqlHadrEndpoint cmdlet to create the endpoint and then use the Set-SqlHadrEndpoint to start the endpoint.
Example (PowerShell)
The following PowerShell commands create a database mirroring endpoint on an instance of SQL Server (Machine\Instance). The endpoint uses port 5022.
Important
This example works only on a server instance that currently lack a database mirroring endpoint.
# Create the endpoint.
$endpoint = New-SqlHadrEndpoint MyMirroringEndpoint -Port 5022 -Path SQLSERVER:\SQL\Machine\Instance
# Start the endpoint
Set-SqlHadrEndpoint -InputObject $endpoint -State "Started"
