Best Practices

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

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

Example: Configuration Manager for Jira v6.6.8 is supported and above work for Jira versions between 7.8.0 to and 8.11.0. In the 6.6.8 version of CMJ, any version of Jira can be installed between v7.8.0 to and v8.11.0 in the source and target, but the CMJ app version should be identical to v6.6.8 at both places.

An important point to rememberImportant: If the Jira versions are different, the target instance shouldn't should not be running on an older version than the source instance.

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

...

It is always suggested to check the compatibility matrix to make sure the version versions of the Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ) is identical same between the data center Jira instance and server instance.
