Hi All,
We are planning to Decommission our JIRA (6.0.1) application which is using SQL Server Database as backend. Before Decommissioning the application we are planning to take a backup of SQL Server DB which the application is using. Apart from that, is there anything that we can take a backup before the Decommission so that we wont miss out anything if we had to revert.
Please let me know, what else I can take as a backup for the JIRA application before I decommission?
You should also take the attachments from <jira home>/attachments, assuming you want to keep them. I would also recommend a copy of the installation file that was used, so that if you want your Jira back, you can re-install and connect up an old database. Plus a copy of the current licence key. Although in theory your licence is perpetual, Atlassian have archived or hidden older versions of Jira - it's quite hard to find an installation for a version lower than 4.0 nowadays
