    .SYNOPSIS
        This command will help you to automatically grow your transaction log file in a responsible way (preventing the generation of too many VLFs).

    .DESCRIPTION
        As you may already know, having a transaction log file with too many Virtual Log Files (VLFs) can hurt your database performance in many ways.

        Example:
        Too many VLFs can cause transaction log backups to slow down and can also slow down database recovery and, in extreme cases, even impact insert/update/delete performance.

        http://www.brentozar.com/blitz/high-virtual-log-file-vlf-count/

        In order to get rid of this fragmentation we need to grow the file taking the following into consideration:
        - How many VLFs are created when we perform a grow operation or when an auto-grow is invoked?

        Note: In SQL Server 2014 this algorithm has changed (http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/paul/important-change-vlf-creation-algorithm-sql-server-2014/)

        Attention:
        We are growing in MB instead of GB because of known issue prior to SQL 2012:

        How it works?
        The transaction log will grow in chunks until it reaches the desired size.
        Example: If you have a log file with 8192MB and you say that the target size is 81920MB (80GB) it will grow in chunks of 8192MB until it reaches 81920MB. 8192 -> 16384 -> 24576 ... 73728 -> 81920

    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The target SQL Server instance or instances.

    .PARAMETER Database
        The database(s) to process. Options for this list are auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed.

    .PARAMETER TargetLogSize
        Specifies the target size of the transaction log file in megabytes.

    .PARAMETER IncrementSize
        Specifies the amount the transaction log should grow in megabytes. If this value differs from the suggested value based on your TargetLogSize, you will be prompted to confirm your choice.

        This value will be calculated if not specified.

    .PARAMETER LogFileId
        Specifies the file number(s) of additional transaction log files to grow.

        If this value is not specified, only the first transaction log file will be processed.

    .PARAMETER ShrinkLogFile
        If this switch is enabled, your transaction log files will be shrunk.

    .PARAMETER ShrinkSize
        Specifies the target size of the transaction log file for the shrink operation in megabytes.

    .PARAMETER BackupDirectory
        Specifies the location of your backups. Backups must be performed to shrink the transaction log.

        If this value is not specified, the SQL Server instance's default backup directory will be used.

    .PARAMETER ExcludeDiskSpaceValidation
        If this switch is enabled, the validation for enough disk space using Get-DbaDiskSpace command will be skipped.
        This can be useful when you know that you have enough space to grow your TLog but you don't have PowerShell Remoting enabled to validate it.

    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential).

        Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported.

        For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance.

    .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase
        The database(s) to exclude. Options for this list are auto-populated from the server.

    .PARAMETER WhatIf
        If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.

    .PARAMETER Confirm
        If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.

    .PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Expand-DbaDbLogFile -SqlInstance sqlcluster -Database db1 -TargetLogSize 50000

        Grows the transaction log for database db1 on sqlcluster to 50000 MB and calculates the increment size.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Expand-DbaDbLogFile -SqlInstance sqlcluster -Database db1, db2 -TargetLogSize 10000 -IncrementSize 200

        Grows the transaction logs for databases db1 and db2 on sqlcluster to 1000MB and sets the growth increment to 200MB.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Expand-DbaDbLogFile -SqlInstance sqlcluster -Database db1 -TargetLogSize 10000 -LogFileId 9

        Grows the transaction log file  with FileId 9 of the db1 database on sqlcluster instance to 10000MB.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Expand-DbaDbLogFile -SqlInstance sqlcluster -Database (Get-Content D:\DBs.txt) -TargetLogSize 50000

        Grows the transaction log of the databases specified in the file 'D:\DBs.txt' on sqlcluster instance to 50000MB.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Expand-DbaDbLogFile -SqlInstance SqlInstance -Database db1,db2 -TargetLogSize 100 -IncrementSize 10 -ShrinkLogFile -ShrinkSize 10 -BackupDirectory R:\MSSQL\Backup

        Grows the transaction logs for databases db1 and db2 on SQL server SQLInstance to 100MB, sets the incremental growth to 10MB, shrinks the transaction log to 10MB and uses the directory R:\MSSQL\Backup for the required backups.
