Help me with the Migration

sai chinamuthevi

Team,

i have a Jira server from there i want to Migrate a set of projects to my test cloud environment. i have couple of issues, can you guys please help..

1) when created new migration there an option to choose all issue data or only attachments. i choose attachments and migration went successfully. but my question is where these attachments gets stored in our cloud environment? i haven't migrated issues and project only attachment of 9mb data but don't know where it gets stored please help here...

2) in a large scenario lets suppose we have 300 projects and we want to do the migration set of projects at a time with out any scenario i mean 1st 10 projects at a time then next 10 so on. now my question is if there are any projects which have dependencies like issue linkage with other projects and if we are not migrating them with those projects then what will happen and how to know if we have dependencies or not?

Hello @sai chinamuthevi 

1. Why do you need to know where the data is stored? Until you migrate the associated projects/issues, the attachments will be inaccessible.

2. As per this document, when you migrate in batches Jira will keep track of the cross project issue links and re-establish then as the batches get migrated. If you have a link between an issue in batch 1 and an issue in batch 5, after the migration of batch 5 completes then you will be able to see the link between the two issues. The links are re-established and accessible after all entities involved in the link have been migrated.
