Run the tool

Version: 10.5

You run the Sitecore Xdb Collection Update tool from a Windows Command Prompt.

You can also run this tool before using the shard keys functionality.

Note

We recommended that you run this tool on offline databases.

If it is impossible to take the database offline, we recommend that you turn off change tracking for the tables whose shards are updated - Contacts, Interactions, InteractionFacets.

Important

Do not turn off change tracking at database level.
