Subject: Jira: ISIS to SCD migration

Dear all,

We have recently been testing the migration of our Jira projects from our current https://isisneutronmuon.atlassian.net (paid for by ICD) to https://stfc.atlassian.net (paid for by SCD). Migrating our projects to the instance managed by SCD gives several advantages:

Lowers the barrier to collaboration with SCD/ALC. Issues will no longer have to be kept in sync between instances
Lowers the overall cost to STFC. The ISIS & SCD instances are entirely separate Atlassian subscriptions so users wanting to see issues in both required a license in both.
Uses SSO by default.

Janu has validated & tested the process of copying our current projects over to the STFC instance and we are confident that it works well. We would like to avoid renewing our ISIS subscription (expiring at the end of September) for another year and so we are aiming to perform the migration by end of Friday 5th September.

All active issues/boards/projects will be migrated automatically. On 5th September an invite email will be sent out to all current ISIS Jira users for them to join the SCD Jira. Once registered the usability should be the same as before as it is still the same product just hosted in a separate instance. After a week, assuming all goes well, we will put in a redirect so that the ICD instance automatically redirects to the STFC instance.

Please let those on your team who also use Jira know. A separate email will be sent to the non-ICD Jira users later today.

Cheers,

Martyn
