If you're in a process of upgrading JIRA or before planning to upgrade JIRA and want to change the home directory path, then here is what you can do,

  • Shutdown the JIRA (probably the older one here)
  • Move or copy the JIRA home directory to the desired location (ex, /data/jira_home)
  • Go into new JIRA binaries folder <JIRA-New-Version/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/ and open jira-application.properties and change the path,

             jira.home = /<new path of the JIRA home directory> (ex: /data/jira_home)

  • Then start JIRA (newer JIRA version)

Hope it helps
