how can i change the initial build number for a bamboo plan to say 10000

[Ryan O Sullivan]

I have a plan that is at 4100, i have created a new plan but don't want it to  start at v 1. 

I don't think there is a way to  share the build number between plans, and even if i could i think it's neater to  just say the new plan starts at 10000. so  there won't be any build number collisions

It is not currently possible to do it directly in Bamboo.

However, there is a way to do it, but it's not recommended. It requires direct database manipulation.

To do it, please first make sure your Bamboo instance is not running. Then, modify the column value `next_build_number' in the table `build' for the specific plan to your desired value, eg. 10001.

I'd suggest performing this kind of direct DB manipulation with Bamboo shut down.

Any update on this in the last 5 years or is it still not possible?

What do you mean by build collisions?
