Hi Diego,
When upgrading Jira using the Linux binary, the installer will place a ZIP archive in the respective parents of the install and home directories if you opt to perform a backup.
For example, the default directories for Jira on Linux are:
- Installation: /opt/atlassian/jira
- Home: /var/atlassian/application-data/jira
Your backups will be located at:
- Installation: /opt/atlassian/jira-OLD-VERSION-back.zip
- Home: /var/atlassian/application-data/jira-OLD-VERSION-back.zip
As a reminder, these backups do not include database content. I highly recommend you back up your database before upgrading by following the Jira Backup Guide. I also encourage you to consult the complete upgrade guide, which includes a pre-upgrade checklist.
Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Best regards,
Ben
