Upgrade Jira from 7.13.1 to 8.0

all.sadmin

Hi everyone,

 

Did someone already made the jump from 7.13 to 8.0 ?

 

Any issues. opinions, concerns or things to keep an eye on ?

 

We are in process of Upgrade from 7.2 and we were about to install 7.13 but now I saw that 8.0 is released and thinking of jumping directly to 8.

 

Thank you!

I can respond myself partially, we made the update in a test environment, this is the outcome:

- Update was fast without issues ~ 30 min including initial re indexing

- Indexing is indeed fast, from 25 minutes in 7.13 jumped to 8.5 minutes

- Kanban and Scrum boards are fine

- Comments are also fine

- There are some unsupported apps that are requesting update but there is none available (those also work fine)

I will come back with more information after I'll have it.
