Description

Hi all,

Is there an interest in adding a resource to manage SQL Server startup parameters? I think it would be particularly useful for setting hotfix trace flags (-T).

We have a need for this kind of resource, but I'd be more than happy to implement it as a part of this module.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the SqlServerDsc module structure and existing resource patterns; the issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Clarify the resource’s scope and expected behavior for SQL Server startup parameters, including hotfix trace flags (-T), then define tests that demonstrate the supported configuration is applied.
