21. ParameterDescription BeginSeedUseful for scripting reseeds. Task asynchronously starts the seeding operation and then exits the cmdlet. MaximumSeedsInParallelUsed with Server parameter to specify maximum number of parallel seeding operations across specified server during full server reseed operation. Default is 10. SafeDeleteExistingFilesUsed to perform a seeding operation with a single copy redundancy pre-check prior to the seed. Because this parameter includes the redundancy safety check, it requires a lower level of permissions than DeleteExistingFiles, enabling a limited permission administrator to perform the seeding operation ServerUsed as part of a full server reseed operation to reseed all database copies in a F&S state. Can be used with MaximumSeedsInParallel to start reseeds of database copies in parallel across specified server in batches of up to value of MaximumSeedsInParallel parameter copies at a time
