It appears that I’m missing releases and project history after the migration from 1.6 to 2.0. Several of my older projects where I haven’t created a release in several months now show no releases or history at all. Does the import from 1.6 to 2.0 only bring in data within a certain time period?
Hi James,
An earlier version of the Octopus 1.6 migrator exhibited a bug much like this - can you please let us know which 2.0 build you used to perform the upgrade?
Regards,
Nick
I used version 2.0.9.1020
I’m seeing the same issue as James; I believe this is due to the migrated instance being downgraded to the Community license which only allows for five active projects. I have since upgraded our license, but the projects which were excluded previously haven’t had their release history restored, although they appear to be otherwise functioning normally.
I think it would be very useful to have some warning displayed regarding the licensing issue when importing from a 1.6 instance.
Hi - Gary, the RC builds don’t enforce any licensing limits currently.
James, I would guess this is related to: https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/Issues/issues/503 – fixed in 2.0.11.
If you’re not using a “count-of-items” retention policy then we will need to dig deeper.
Regards,
Nick
Thanks, Nick. After checking our pre-upgrade instance, it seems that (in our case, at least) the 2.0 is actually honouring the defined retention policy correctly, while 1.6 wasn’t - thus keeping builds that should’ve actually expired.
Ah - makes sense. Thanks for closing the loop.
