Description
On the SQL Server that hosts the primary replica for the primary availability group, sets the replica role to SECONDARY.
Examples
EXAMPLE 1: Shows how to set an availability group primary replica to SECONDARY role
PS C:\> CD 'SQLSERVER:\SQL\MYSERVER\MYINSTANCE\AvailabilityGroups\AG1'
PS SQLSERVER:\SQL\MYSERVER\MYINSTANCE\AvailabilityGroups\AG1> Set-SqlAvailabilityReplicaRoleToSecondary
This examples show how to set the primary replica of availability group AG1 on server MYSERVER (instance = MYINSTANCE) to SECONDARY role.
The name of the availability is inferred from the context, i.e. the current location.
Parameters
-AccessToken
The access token used to authenticate to SQL Server, as an alternative to user/password or Windows Authentication.
This can be used, for example, to connect to SQL Azure DB and SQL Azure Managed Instance
using a Service Principal or a Managed Identity.
The parameter to use can be either a string representing the token or a PSAccessToken object as returned by running Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

-Encrypt
The encryption type to use when connecting to SQL Server.
This value maps to the Encrypt property SqlConnectionEncryptOption on the SqlConnection object of the Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver.
In v22 of the module, the default is Optional (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be 'Mandatory', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

-HostNameInCertificate
The host name to be used in validating the SQL Server TLS/SSL certificate. You must pass this parameter if your SQL Server instance is enabled for Force Encryption and you want to connect to an instance using hostname/shortname. If this parameter is omitted then passing the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) to -ServerInstance is necessary to connect to a SQL Server instance enabled for Force Encryption.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

-Path
Specifies the path of the Availability Group to which the replica belongs. If you do not specify this parameter, this cmdlet uses current working location.
