Find and replace Sitecore license in every corner (XP 9.2)

You may need to replace your Sitecore licenses, because the license has expired or you need upgrade the existing one. Since Sitecore 9.* has added some XP roles, plus the service workers, it's not an easy job to find and replace all the licenses any more. Here, I am going to explore the Sitecore installation packages to find out where are the Sitecore license located for each role and service worker. XP Single Role: single License path:  App_Data\license.xml [kudu: cd site\wwwroot\App_Data] Role: xc-connect License path App_Data\license.xml [kudu: cd site\wwwroot\App_Data] App_data\jobs\continuous\IndexWorker\App_Data\license.xml [kudu: cd site\wwwroot\ App_data\jobs\continuous\IndexWorker\App_Data] App_data\jobs\continuous\AutomationEngine\App_Data\license.xml [kudu: cd site\wwwroot\ App_data\jobs\continuous\AutomationEngine\App_Data] App_data\jobs\continuous\ProcessingEngine\App_Data\license.xml [kudu: cd site\wwwroot\ App_da...

Update ShardsGlobal for xDB migration (Sitecore 9+)

In Sitecore 9+, xDB data can be stored in SQL databases. To ensure the performance, Sitecore uses Shard databases, see Jason article  Sitecore 9 xDB Sharding . The sharding data is managed in ShardMapManager table, which stores the server name and database. It works like a charm, but just one issue. The server name and database is hard references, which can cause problems for data migration. If you are trying to create a Sitecore instance from database dumps, the DatabaseName and ServerName need to be updated in  [Xdb.Collection.ShardMapManager].[__ShardManagement].[ShardsGlobal]
