Migrates SQL Policy Based Management Objects, including both policies and conditions.

The -Policy and -Condition parameters are auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used to copy only specific objects.

By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
