Server to cloud migration

Ativo Programs server/data center to cloud migration

Ativo supports a migration of Ativo Programs data from Jira Server / Data Center to Jira Cloud.

You can use the Jira Cloud Migration Assistant to migrate Ativo Programs data.

When migrate?

Migrate the Ativo Programs data after all Jira projects used in Ativo are migrated. (You can also include it in the last Jira project(s) migration run).

If you accidentally migrate Ativo Programs data before all Jira projects have been migrated, then you’ll need to do an additional migration run afterwards.

WARNING Do not run a migration of Ativo Programs data when you already started to make changes in Ativo on the cloud. The migration overwrites the configuration changes each time.

How to migrate?

• Install Ativo Programs for Jira on the cloud instance.

• Open the Jira Cloud Migration Assistant.

• Migrate all Jira projects used in Ativo

• Create a migration run of the Ativo Programs app data (you can include the Ativo data migration with a Jira project migration if you want)

• Upon successful migration, you will see an ‘INCOMPLETE’ status (see next section to complete the migration).

Complete the migration

Ativo Programs migrates all configuration metadata, except for the Ativo Programs admins configuration.

To update the Ativo Programs admins:

• Go to Jira settings > Manage Apps > Ativo Programs > Admins
