      Documentation Bug: Migrating Jira applications to another server

      Please revise and clarify important data import steps from all versions of the article:

      Details

      From the two newest versions of Migrating Jira applications... (Jira 8.0-8.1):

      Within the section Start Jira for the first time, steps 4 and 5 ("Select My own database"..."") make it unclear that they are actually separate screens in the setup wizard/installation process. Additionally, the link "Import your data" is not very prominent on that second screen of the setup wizard, and the fact that it's a link (not a button), leads one to believe it's a link to our online KB and not a functional step in the process. (And other links in the Setup Wizard process redirect to online KB articles)

      For pre-Jira 8.0 versions of the article:

      e.g. Migrating Jira applications to another server, the relevant section is
      4. Start Jira and connect it to the database, the same steps are number list items 3 and 4.
