Retrieves FileStream configuration status at both the SQL Server service and instance levels.
Retrieves FileStream configuration status by checking both the SQL Server service configuration and the instance-level sp_configure settings. This function helps DBAs quickly identify FileStream configuration mismatches between service and instance levels, which are common causes of FileStream functionality issues. The function returns detailed access levels, share names, and indicates whether a restart is pending to apply configuration changes.

By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.

Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
