Invoke-D365DbSyncPartial

SYNOPSIS

Invoke the synchronization process used in Visual Studio

SYNTAX

Invoke-D365DbSyncPartial [[-SyncList] <String[]>] [[-SyncExtensionsList] <String[]>] [[-SyncMode] <String>]
 [[-Verbosity] <String>] [[-BinDirTools] <String>] [[-MetadataDir] <String>] [[-DatabaseServer] <String>]
 [[-DatabaseName] <String>] [[-SqlUser] <String>] [[-SqlPwd] <String>] [[-LogPath] <String>]
 [-ShowOriginalProgress] [-OutputCommandOnly] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Uses the sync.exe (engine) to synchronize the database for the environment

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Invoke-D365DBSyncPartial -SyncList "CustCustomerEntity","SalesTable"

This will invoke the sync engine and have it work against the database. It will run with the default value "PartialList" as the SyncMode. It will run the sync process against "CustCustomerEntity" and "SalesTable"

EXAMPLE 2

Invoke-D365DBSyncPartial -SyncList "CustCustomerEntity","SalesTable" -Verbose

This will invoke the sync engine and have it work against the database. It will run with the default value "PartialList" as the SyncMode. It will run the sync process against "CustCustomerEntity" and "SalesTable"

It will output the same level of details that Visual Studio would normally do.

EXAMPLE 3

Invoke-D365DBSyncPartial -SyncList "CustCustomerEntity","SalesTable" -SyncExtensionsList "CaseLog.Extension","CategoryTable.Extension" -Verbose

This will invoke the sync engine and have it work against the database. It will run with the default value "PartialList" as the SyncMode. It will run the sync process against "CustCustomerEntity", "SalesTable", "CaseLog.Extension" and "CategoryTable.Extension"

It will output the same level of details that Visual Studio would normally do.
