Use PowerShell to add an elastic pool to a failover group

[!INCLUDEappliesto-sqldb]

This Azure PowerShell script example creates a database in Azure SQL Database, adds it to an elastic pool, creates a failover group, and tests failover.

[!INCLUDE quickstarts-free-trial-note] [!INCLUDE updated-for-az] [!INCLUDE cloud-shell-try-it.md]

If you choose to install and use PowerShell locally, this tutorial requires Az PowerShell 1.4.0 or later. If you need to upgrade, see Install Azure PowerShell module. If you are running PowerShell locally, you also need to run Connect-AzAccount to create a connection with Azure.
