Background: We are preparing to migrate some projects from one Jira Data Center to another. We are not migrating the JSM projects, only the non-JSM projects. CMJ is being used to perform this task. We have discovered that some issues originally logged in a JSM project were moved to a non-JSM project. The CMJ tool now demands to install JSM on the target Data Center for the migration which we do not want to do.
Question: How work around this problem? If we clone the issues in the non-JSM project will that de-link their connection to JSM? If so, we now realize the Comments will be lost by the clone function and these issues have extensive Comments.
At this point we are faced with manually re-creating these issues, and all their comments, in the non-JSM projects in order to disconnect them from JSM so that the migration can proceed.
Any suggestions for making clones or copies of these issues that will retain what we want from the issues including comments and links without dragging along internal history from JSM?
