Analysis of configuration changes to destination Jira Cloud

After CMJ Cloud finishes analyzing the projects project configurations in the deployment , and the configuration elements associated with them, it presents a detailed report of the changes that will be introduced to the destination Jira Cloud site.

The analysis report contains the following information about:

The sections below explain the information presented in the phase Analyze changes phase of the deployment.

...

Configuration counters

The configuration counters on the Analyze changes page show the number of configuration elements of a given type that will be added to, modified on the destination Jira Cloud, or have problems.

...

For example, if you want to view all the workflows the deployment will add, just click on the + icon in the Workflows summary report. Then, in the Configuration tab, you will view information about each workflow the deployment will add to your Jira Cloud sitethe destination.

Learn more about the information displayed in the Configuration tab for each configuration element.

Projects being

...

deployed

The Projects tab shows you the projects that will be added to the destination Jira Cloud site and those in conflict with projects on the cloud.

The Projects tab here lists all the projects that will be added to or modified on your cloudwill modify projects on the destination Jira Cloud. In addition, we display the name, key, type, lead, and issue count of each project.

The Modification tag next to each project name indicates that the deployment will make changes coming from the project in the deployment scope to projects in the destination Jira Cloud. You can click on the project name to navigate to the project information on the current (source) Jira.

The Addition tag next to each project name indicates that the deployment will add the projects to your the destination Jira Cloud. You can click on the project name to navigate to the project information on the current (source) Jira Cloud.

If there are conflicts between projects on the current Jira Cloud and Jira Cloudthe destination, you can use the Conflicts filter to navigate these errors.

Configuration elements being

...

deployed

The Configuration tab shows you all configuration element changes that will be applied to the destination Jira Cloud and if any problems are detected.

The Configuration tab lists all the configuration elements that will be added to or modified on your destination Jira Cloud. For each configuration element, we display its name, type, and problems if any detected.When the Power Admin app is installed on your Jira Server/Data Center, there is a link in the Usage column. That link redirects you to a Power Admin page showing where and how the configuration element is used across the Jira Server/Data Center instance. Learn more about the Power Admin appare detected.

In the Configuration tab, there is a tag to for each configuration element name indicating its change type:

  • Addition - the deployment will add the element to your destination Jira Cloud.

  • Modification - an element from the current Jira will modify its matching element on in the destination Jira Cloud.

The filters you can use here to find specific configuration changes rapidly are:

  • Type - filters the elements based on their type.

  • Addition - shows only the elements that will be added.

  • Modification - shows only the elements that will be modified.

  • Problems - shows the problems detected.

Users in the deployment

The Users tab shows the deployment status of all users from the migrated deployed projects. The users can be either existing on the destination Jira Cloud site, new users that will be added to the cloud, or unknown users with undetermined statusstatuses.

You also have the powerful option to change how a user will be migrated. Users with changed deployment details are marked as customized.

The Users tab on the Analyze changes phase contains all the information about the deployment status of your users, plus the option to customize their user mapping. With the custom user mapping, you can map a source user to a different cloud account and resolve user errors like missing or invalid email addresses.

The users in a deployment can be:

  • New: User who doesn’t have an account in the destination Jira Cloud site and will be invited to join

  • Existing: User with this email exists on this in the destination Jira Cloud site.

  • Unknown: User doesn’t have a valid email address, and it cannot be determined if the account exists on the destination Jira Cloud site. The user either doesn’t have an email address, or its email address is invalid.Customized: User is mapped to an account on the Jira Cloud site via custom mapping.

Check out our complete User Mapping tutorialDeploy Users tutorial, which introduces the different options you have to successfully manage your users during a deployment and ultimately transport them safely to the cloud.

View the detected problems

Cloud deployment Tool detects essential problems and conflicts in the configuration during the Analyze phase of a deployment.

The detected problems are two types: warnings and errors. Warnings do not stop you from finishing your deployments, but errors do. So in case, the analysis detects any error or conflict between current Jira’s Jira Cloud and destination Jira Cloud’s Cloud configurations, you need to take care of it and fix it before you can complete the deployment.

Info

We advise you to carefully read through the texts of the problems and follow the resolution procedures if any are provided.

Rerun analysis when problems are detected

To create deployments to Jira Cloud sites:

Review what will be added to and modified on the cloud on the Analyze step. If the deployment detects any problems or conflicts between the server and cloud projects, the analysis will alert you and show you the details of each problem.

...

On the Analyze changes step, review if any configuration problems are detected.

...

If you have configuration errors or conflicts, you need to resolve them before migrating. Otherwise, you won’t be able to proceed with the deployment.
