Best Practice

The Configuration Manager for Jira app (CMJ) can migrate Project with issues along with the associated attachments. You can migrate projects from one Jira version to another as the The Configuration Manager for Jira app is designed to support exporting the export and importing import snapshots from different Jira versions. You can migrate projects from one Jira version to another.

It's always ideal to have the same version of Jira running on both the Source source and Target target instances. However, with our the latest versions version of Configuration Manager for Jira app, one can have two different Jira versions on Source the source and Target target instances but provided the version of Configuration Manager for Jira app is identical.

Example - : Configuration Manager for Jira v6.6.8 is supported for Jira version versions between 7.8.0 to 8.11.0, If using this version, then two different Jira versions between 7. In the 6.6.8 version of CMJ, any version of Jira can be installed between v7.8.0 to 8v8.11.0 can be installed in Source the source and Targettarget, but the CMJ app version should be identical to v6.6.8 in at both source and targetplaces.

Another important point to remember is, if : If the Jira versions are different, then the target instance shouldn't be running on an older version than the source instance.

Example -If running Jira Source : Jira source instance is on v7.8.0 and Target the target is on v8.10.0, then . Then CMJ Works perfectly. However, if the Jira Source source instance is on v8.10.0 and the target is on v7.9.0, then the CMJ might not give accurate results.

Please check the compatibility matrix to make sure the version of the Configuration Manager for JIRAJira (CMJ) is identical between the Data Center data center Jira Instance instance and Server Instanceserver instance.
