Remarks

Using the DacStore object, you can:

  • Connect to an instance of the Database Engine.

  • Access the collection of DacInstance objects that are immediate children of the DacStore object. The collection represents the set of DAC instances available on the instance of the Database Engine.

  • Request create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations for every type in the object model.

Note

The DacStore class implements ISfcDomain, which specifies the connection point to any object domain defined using the Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc namespace.

Thread Safety

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