v12.5.0

• Changes to SqlServerSecureConnection
  • Updated README and added example for SqlServerSecureConnection,
    instructing users to use the 'SYSTEM' service account instead of
    'LocalSystem'.
• Changes to SqlScript
  • Correctly passes the $VerbosePreference to the helper function
    Invoke-SqlScript so that PRINT statements is outputted correctly
    when verbose output is requested, e.g
    Start-DscConfiguration -Verbose.
  • Added en-US localization (issue #624).
  • Added additional unit tests for code coverage.
• Changes to SqlScriptQuery
  • Correctly passes the $VerbosePreference to the helper function
    Invoke-SqlScript so that PRINT statements is outputted correctly
    when verbose output is requested, e.g
    Start-DscConfiguration -Verbose.
  • Added en-US localization.
  • Added additional unit tests for code coverage.
• Changes to SqlSetup
  • Concatenated Robocopy localization strings (issue #694).
  • Made the error message more descriptive when the Set-TargetResource
    function calls the Test-TargetResource function to verify the desired
    state.
• Changes to SqlWaitForAG
  • Added en-US localization (issue #625).
• Changes to SqlServerPermission
  • Added en-US localization (issue #619).
• Changes to SqlServerMemory
  • Added en-US localization (issue #617).
  • No longer will the resource set the MinMemory value if it was provided
    in a configuration that also set the Ensure parameter to 'Absent'
    (issue #1329).
  • Refactored unit tests to simplify them add add slightly more code
    coverage.
• Changes to SqlServerMaxDop
  • Added en-US localization (issue #616).
• Changes to SqlRS
  • Reporting Services are restarted after changing settings, unless
    $SuppressRestart parameter is set (issue #1331).
    $SuppressRestart will also prevent Reporting Services restart after initialization.
  • Fixed one of the error handling to use localization, and made the
    error message more descriptive when the Set-TargetResource function
    calls the Test-TargetResource function to verify the desired
    state. This was done prior to adding full en-US localization.
  • Fixed (issue #1258).
    When initializing Reporting Services, there is no need to execute InitializeReportServer
    CIM method, since executing SetDatabaseConnection CIM method initializes
    Reporting Services.
