public function Create(
    keyEncryptions : SymmetricKeyEncryption[], 
    keyEncryptionAlgorithm : SymmetricKeyEncryptionAlgorithm, 
    passPhrase : String, 
    identityPhrase : String
)

Parameters

• keyEncryptions
  Type: array<Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.SymmetricKeyEncryption[]
  A SymmetricKeyEncryption object array value that specifies more than one encryption type.

• keyEncryptionAlgorithm
  Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.SymmetricKeyEncryptionAlgorithm
  A SymmetricKeyEncryptionAlgorithm value that specifies the encryption method.

• passPhrase
  Type: System.String
  A String value that specifies the pass phrase from which the symmetric key can be derived.

• identityPhrase
  Type: System.String
  A String value that specifies the identity phrase used to tag data that is encrypted with the key. Either passPhrase or identityPhrase can be null, but at least one needs to be set.
