ServerAlias Class

Definition

The ServerAlias class represents an alias for a server connection on the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) installation.

public ref class ServerAlias sealed : Microsoft::SqlServer::Management::Smo::Wmi::WmiSmoObject, Microsoft::SqlServer::Management::Common::ICreatable, Microsoft::SqlServer::Management::Common::IDroppable
public sealed class ServerAlias : Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Wmi.WmiSmoObject, Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ICreatable, Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.IDroppable
type ServerAlias = class
    inherit WmiSmoObject
    interface ICreatable
    interface IDroppable
Public NotInheritable Class ServerAlias

Examples

Managing Services and Network Settings by Using WMI Provider

Remarks

A server connection alias is required when:

  • The client is connecting to an instance of Microsoft SQL Server over a network transport that is not the default network transport.

  • The instance of SQL Server to which the client is connected listens on an alternate named pipe.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
