MS SQL Jira collation

Michael Hajjar November 14, 2019

Hello,

 

I have a question, maybe you guys can help me. 
I want to migrate the DB of Jira from MS SQL 2008 to MS SQL 2016.

I know that the DB collation itself needs to be case insensitive (SQL_Latin1_General_CP437_CI_AI or Latin1_General_CI_AI)

Do I also need to configure the DB server/instance collation itself to be case insensitive?
The DB server itself has collation Latin1_General_CI_AS. Can I keep it this way and change the new Jira DB collation only?

I have already tested this in our development environment, Jira is running fine on the new DB with the collation (only on JIRA DB level), but I don't know if this will cause problems in the future. 

 

Thanks!

Greetings,

 

Michael
