Copy-DbaStartupProcedure migrates startup procedures (user defined procedures within master database) from one SQL Server to another.
By default, all procedures found flagged as startup procedures are copied and then set as a startup procedure on the destination instance. The -Procedure parameter is auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used to copy only specific startup procedures.
If the procedure already exists on the destination, it will be skipped unless -Force is used.

PS C:\> Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster
Copies all startup procedures from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using Windows credentials. If procedure(s) with the same name exists in the master database on sqlcluster, they will be skipped.
PS C:\> Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -SourceSqlCredential $scred -Destination sqlcluster -DestinationSqlCredential $dcred -Procedure logstartup -Force
Copies only the startup procedure, logstartup, from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using SQL credentials for sqlserver2014a and Windows credentials for sqlcluster. If the procedure already exists on
sqlcluster, it will be updated because -Force was used.
PS C:\> Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -ExcludeProcedure logstartup -Force
Copies all the startup procedures found on sqlserver2014a except logstartup to sqlcluster. If a startup procedure with the same name exists on sqlcluster, it will be updated because -Force was used.
PS C:\> Copy-DbaStartupProcedure -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -WhatIf -Force
Shows what would happen if the command were executed using force.

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.

| Pipeline | false |
| Default Value | False |
If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.
