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

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Wmi
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlWmiManagement (in Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlWmiManagement.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class ServerAlias _
    Inherits WmiSmoObject _
    Implements ICreatable, IDroppable
'Usage
Dim instance As ServerAlias

public sealed class ServerAlias : WmiSmoObject, 
    ICreatable, IDroppable

public ref class ServerAlias sealed : public WmiSmoObject, 
    ICreatable, IDroppable

[<SealedAttribute>]
type ServerAlias =  
    class
        inherit WmiSmoObject
        interface ICreatable
        interface IDroppable
    end

public final class ServerAlias extends WmiSmoObject implements ICreatable, IDroppable

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.

To get or set ServerAlias object properties or run ServerAlias methods, users must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.
