Issue in License upgrade from Confluence Server6.13 to Data center 7.19

[Surbhi Soni]

Hi Everyone,

So we are trying to upgrade our Confluence license from Server 6.13 to Data Center 7.19.

Currently we have 500 user license (server) and we have bought the data center license for 1000 users. 

We are facing some issues while migrating Confluence from server to Datacenter so we thought of upgrading license first to unblock users to use Confluence.( we have more than 500 users now) but we are getting this message window while we are trying to activate new license.

Can someone help me understand  what would happen if I click on "Confirm" ? How the migration will happen? where will it happen? what would be the impact?

Also is there any way we can apply Data Center license right now without getting this message?

Any lead would be helpful.

Thanks in advance..

Regards,

Surbhi

Hello, this guide should outline the outcome of clicking confirm to proceed with the migration.

Supplementally instructions for a single node setup.

Thanks @Steven Mustari for the reply. So does this mean that migration will happen automatically? Is there going to be any impact or do we have to check anything?

I want to understand what is going to happen in the background if I click on "Confirm" button. Its a production environment so I don't want to do anything without being 100% sure about it.

Also fyi ,we have not yet upgraded the Confluence server as we are facing some issues ,so we first want to apply Data Center license and increase the license count.
