Hi ,
In case of complete crash of JIRA application, how can we rebuild the application from scratch?
... complete crash of Jira application [...] rebuild the application
What do you mean by this? Did Jira go down as an application, and you need to create a new installation?
Assuming you mean what I think you mean, just delete the jira.home directory, and if you want to reuse the database, drop the database and recreate it. (If you're using hsql, ie the evaluation db, then just deleting the home dir is sufficient).
JIRA didnt go down as of now. But just needed to know in case if is any outage or any other complication arises.
Normally what we do for our any Atlassian tool deployment is to run a daily backup(nightly) which backs up Jira_HOME ( includes attachments), tomcat directory and database. And we use rdiff so the backup is incremental which hardly takes around 5-10 minutes daily.
In case of outrages which could be on database server or the tomcat server we just restore from the respective backup copy. So in worst case the user would loose one day of activity.
It looks like you're new here. Sign in or register to get started.
