How to migrate custom field values with groovy or not?

-

 Hi!

Today I would like to share a possible way to migrate or merge a custom field during a periodical cleanup. 

Possible ways are built-in functionality of Scriptrunner or myGroovy, own code and own yet another alternative way for the complicated situation.

Also,you can follow with next typical steps of cleanup process:

  1. Detect the fields
  2. Create a ticket about merge plan 
  3. Detect the JQL, agile boards queries via database queries in tables searchrequest, add info into ticket
  4. Prepare the optimized the context in the comment of ticket
  5. Notify project stakeholders in the Jira ticket
  6. Get approvals 
  7. Inform via slack (email) the next merge the end users affected  for  that changes
  8. Execute the action.

This is my typical process for the cleanup activity.

As an example, let’s do the next real case with screenshots.

 

Goal:

Migrate from the Production environment field to Products field. Both fields are pickers.

Where some of options are the same, if you see the small differences, you can change if both need to be merged.

Then under super user which has access to all related projects, create filters with related tickets.

Then I saved the filter with name test_ . 

After visiting the Scriptrunner built-in scripts to copy custom fields values.

After verify via preview and run.

Hooray we merged. 

After using the new feature (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-41269) from 8.11.0, we can adjust the private filters via gui, if it’s needed. And public stuff as well via gui.

  Hello community, Gonchik Tsymzhitov is in touch. Today, I would like to share with you a short story about postgresqltuner.pl in usage.  So from previous articles I hope you configured the PostgreSQL server and postgresqltuner.pl.  After executing command, ./postgresqltuner.pl --ssd for ssd disks server. You can see like this output: postgresqltuner.pl version 1.0.1 [OK]      I can invoke executables Connecting to /var/run/postgresql:5432 database template1 as user 'postgres'... [OK]      The user account used by me for reporting has superuser rights on this PostgreSQL instance =====  OS information  ===== [INFO]    OS: linux Version: 5.4.17-2036.102.0.2.el8uek.x86_64 Arch: x86_64-linux-thread-multi [INFO]    OS total memory: 41.03 GB [OK]      vm.overcommit_memory is adequate: no memory overcommitment [INFO]    Running under a vmware hypervisor [INFO]    Currently used I/O scheduler(s): mq-deadline =====  General instance informations  ===== -----  PostgreSQL version  -----

Atlassian Community, let's collaborate and provide stats to vendors about our SQL index usage

  Hi!  Gonchik is in touch. Today I would like to get a little bit of help from you related SQL indexes on your Jira installation (Data Center, Server edition does not matter).    I would like to share a story about  PostgreSQL  and  Jira 8.13.3  ( JSD 4.13.3 )  release.  In that post I will be happy if you answer and comment about your instance indexes, as those info can help to improve the existing situation of heavy indexes.  Typically, it starts from improvement of configuration (e.g. using  https://postgresqltuner.pl/ ),  then query analyzing, adding indexes, after removing as heavy one (shortly  https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Index_Maintenance ) :)    I use like this query in PostgreSQL: SELECT s.schemaname,        s.relname AS tablename,        s.indexrelname AS indexname,        pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(s.indexrelid::regclass)) AS index_size,        idx_tup_read,         idx_tup_fetch,         idx_scan FROM pg_catalog.pg_stat_user_indexes s JOIN pg_catalog.pg_index i O

Stories about detecting Atlassian Confluence bottlenecks with APM tool [part 1]

  Hey! Gonchik, a lover of APM (application performance monitoring) tools, in particular Glowroot, is in touch. Today I will tell you how to find bottlenecks in Confluence On-Prem in the shortest possible time based on one industrial installation. We are faced with a situation where a large number of people simultaneously break into the knowledge base on Confluence On-Prem (during the certification), and the Confluence dies for some time. We immediately thought that the problem is precisely in the simultaneous number of visitors and we can immediately tweak the JVM, but it turned out that not everything is so simple. Below I will tell you how we found the real cause of the brakes and how we dealt with it. The main task: to conduct an audit and, on its basis, achieve performance improvements, especially in times of a large number of active users in the system. Of course, first of all, the hardware resources and OS configurations were checked, where no problems were identified. However,
