Restoring structure from backup brings back the structures and synchronizers created at the moment of backup.
On JIRA 4.3 and earlier versions, restoring Structure from backup may require JIRA restart. |
Restoring structure will not affect issues in any way. The issues that make up the hierarchy should already exist in JIRA. If you do full restore, then you need to run the standard JIRA data restore first - see Structure Backup and Restore. |
To restore the structure from backup:
After the structure has been restored, open Structure | Manage Structure page to see if the structures are there.
JIRA versions 4.3 and earlier cannot dynamically reload Structure plugin. Structure plugin will be temporarily disabled after Restore has finished and will be enabled back after JIRA is restarted. |
You also can restore structure data from backup files made with the earlier versions of the Structure plugin. |
