Migration from Server or Data Center to Cloud

Starting version 5.7.x, Company Calendar Planner for Jira supports automatic migration from Jira Server/Data-Center to Jira Cloud as part of Jira Cloud Migration Assistant. Please check the documentation for Jira Cloud Migration Assistant.

In case of the phased migration when projects are migrated gradually, we advise to migrate Company Calendar Planner for Jira along with the last stage of the migration or as a separate step after all the projects have been migrated. By doing so, you will make sure to migrate the latest changes to Cloud.

Here is a sum-up of the steps to be taken to successfully migrate Company Calendar Planner to Jira Cloud. Prior to migration, please study Atlassian documentation to make sure you understand the whole process.

1. Launch Jira Cloud instance.

2. Install Cloud version of Company Calendar Planner for Jira on the launched instance.

2.1. Navigate to Apps → Company Calendar to verify that the app is installed. No need to create any calendars at this stage.

3. Login as admin to your Jira Server/Data-Center.

3.1. Update Company Calendar Planner for Jira to the latest Server/Data-Center version.

3.2. Make sure you have the latest version of Jira Cloud Migration Assistant. If needed install or update it.

4. Run the migration according to the Atlassian documentation and select Company Calendar Planner for Jira as an app that should be migrated.

Please note that there is no need to migrate BrizoIT Common Modules app.

5. The migration of Company Calendar Planner data should not take more than 1 hour. This time does not include the time that is needed for Jira data migration and other apps migration. Check the migration details page to make sure that Company Calendar Planner was migrated.

If the app migration status is either Failed or Running for more than 1 hour, please create a support ticket indicating your Jira Cloud URL and attaching the file migration-com.brizoit.companycalendar.log from JIRA_HOME/log directory.

6. Please note that once the migration is complete, you may need to adjust the calendar permissions and ownerships to make sure that your Cloud users see the migrated calendars.

Migration to cloud limitations:

  • The sources based on custom filters are not migrated
    Currently, Jira Cloud Migration Assistant migrates only filters associated with the project boards. Custom filters are not migrated. As result, the calendar sources configured based on the custom filters are not migrated. Please see migrated Jira data.

  • The conditional colors are not migrated
    Due to the technical complexity, conditional colors configured for sources are not migrated. We plan to support the conditional colors migration in one of the future app versions.

  • The users' settings are not migrated
    Personal user settings and report field configurations are not migrated.
