PS C:\> Set-DbaDbSequence -SqlInstance sqldev01 -Database TestDB -Sequence TestSequence -RestartWith 10000 -IncrementBy 10
Modifies the sequence TestSequence in the TestDB database on the sqldev01 instance. The sequence will restart with 10000 and increment by 10.
PS C:\> Get-DbaDatabase -SqlInstance sqldev01 -Database TestDB | Set-DbaDbSequence -Sequence TestSequence -Schema TestSchema -Cycle
Using a pipeline this command modifies the sequence named TestSchema.TestSequence in the TestDB database on the sqldev01 instance. The sequence will now cycle the sequence values.
The name of the new sequence
| Alias | Name |

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 |
Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.
