      Atlassian Update – 8th February 2018

      Hi Everyone,

      Thanks for your interest in this issue.

      While this suggestion has gathered significant interest, we're unable to implement all of the excellent suggestions you make. We appreciate the benefits of such requests, but don't plan to work on this for the foreseeable future.

      This suggestion will be reviewed in about 12 months time, at which point we’ll consider whether we need to alter its status.

      Kind regards,
      Jira Server Product Management

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When performing an upgrade, it would be nice to be able to put Jira into read-only mode. It takes a long time (10-15m) for the XML import to run now so currently this is downtime for the users because we have to shut down the existing instance. If we could put the existing instance into read-only mode, then run up the new installation, import the data and then switch, we could have an (almost) completely seamless upgrade.
