How do I update existing Test-Jira-Instace?

[abnpbz]

Hello everyone,

I am relatively new to the Atlassian environment and am supposed to provide an update of our existing Jira Test instance with the latest data (projects, issues, workflows, ...) from the Prod instance.

There are already instructions for setting up a new test instance, but not for updating an existing one. Hence my question:

Is it enough if I just update the data from the production database, with the one from the test instance and leave everthing else untouched?

Regards

Hi jr-atlassian-user,

If your production instance contains different data compare to Test instance it does not impact any Test instance data.

Thanks,

Armitha.

Hi @Armitha Reddy Toorpu Ceema ,

but what would be the best way to duplcate the production data over to the test instance data? Can you give me a step by step instruction please?

Hi jr-atlassian-user,

Will you please confirm that are you trying to perform cloud to cloud migration.

Thanks,

Armitha.

Hi @Armitha Reddy Toorpu Ceema 

It is from DataCenter to DataCenter

Hi jr-atlassian-user,

Do you mean that moving your data from test instance to other instance.

Will you please explain little bit clearly what exactly you want to perform.

Thanks,

Armitha.

Hi @Armitha Reddy Toorpu Ceema ,

thank you for the prompt feedback! I mean from PROD to TEST. The current data status should be reflected from PROD to TEST. The only problem is that the test instance already exists but the data on the test instance is outdated.

I hope I have been able to explain it better
