Hi @Nitesh_A ,

Have you read https://community.cisco.com/t5/application-centric-infrastructure/unraveling-the-concept-of-database-sharding-in-cisco-aci-apics/td-p/4972877 and https://learnwithsalman.com/aci-clustering-and-sharding/ (with the slides for this one at https://learnwithsalman.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/ACI_APIC_Clustering_and_Database_Distribution.pdf)?

If you have already read these, perhaps you might need to tell us WHY you want to find where the shards are located so we can help more.
