Jaspersoft migration from Windows to Linux server

Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise

Issue/Introduction

We are upgrading Jaspersoft from 6.4.2 to 7.1. We are also migrating the Jaspersoft server from Windows to Linux.

What would be the best approach for this migration?
Should we migrate the contents from Windows server to Linux server and perform an upgrade to Jaspersoft?
Should we install jaspersoft 7.1 in the new Linux server and move the contents from windows server?

Environment

Clarity PPM 15.x

Resolution

The suggestion should be migrating from Windows to Linux on the same Jasper version.

So, the steps would be:

1. Upgrade Jasper to 7.1 on Windows

2. Install 7.1 on Linux

3. Export from Windows => Import on Linux



or

1. Install 6.4.2 on Linux

2. Export from Windows => Import on Linux

3. Upgrade Jasper to 7.1 on Linux
