Description
The Start-AzSqlDatabaseVulnerabilityAssessmentScan cmdlet triggers a scan with ScanId identifier. Scan results will be saved under the storage defined by the Update-AzSqlServerVulnerabilityAssessmentSetting cmdlet, under scans/{ServerName}/{DatabaseName}/scan_{ScanId}.json You can monitor the progress of the scan by using the Get-AzSqlDatabaseVulnerabilityAssessmentScanRecord cmdlet with the scanId parameter and look at the State returned parameter. Note that you need to run Enable-AzSqlServerAdvancedDataSecurity and Update-AzSqlServerVulnerabilityAssessmentSetting cmdlet as a prerequisite for using this cmdlets.
