Upgrading

If a new version of OSLC Connect for Jira has been released and you are about to install it, these are the things you need to know/do:

• It is not necessary to uninstall first the previous version of the connector, you just need to install the new version as if it was the first time and no extra configuration is required on Jira.
• If Jira project administrators are using global configurations, the recommended upgrading process is:
  1. Ask to the CLM LDX administrator to suspend the indexing of the datasource to OSLC Connect for Jira TRS feed. ^[1]
  2. Upgrade OSLC Connect for Jira.
  3. Ask to the CLM LDX administrator to resume the indexing of the previously paused datasource.
• If Jira project administrators are using Jazz Reporting Service and/or RELM, steps 1 and 3 of above procedure must also consider CLM LQE administrator for correspoding datasources to OSLC Connect for Jira TRS feeds. ^[1]
• If recommended process is not possible due to LDX/LQE administrators not being available, or for any other reason, the alternative path is:
  1. Upgrade OSLC Connect for Jira.
  2. Ask to the CLM LDX/LQE administrators to re-index the involved datasources as soon as possible ^[2].
