      Problem Definition

      As an JIRA Administrator I need to deploy new instances of JIRA in different environments: Production, staging, test. Some for deploying new instances from scratch in the cloud.
      Currently JIRA will ask for a lot of additional details after startup: base-url, license, password etc.

      Suggested Solution

      Enable JIRA to be deployed fully by scripts.
      High level steps:

      1. boot a clean server
      2. start script for automation of setup
        • create the database
        • create/attach a data storage location
      3. Deploy JIRA artefacts
        • Run the Jira installer without launching Jira
        • Or extract JIRA tar.gz
      4. Configure pre-launch settings: TBD
      5. Start JIRA
      6. Run REST API commands as necessary to complete the setup: TBD
      7. Users should be able to login to JIRA
