Starting October 11, 2024 (Zephyr Enterprise 8.2), the Zephyr Enterprise documentation moved from its current location on Atlassian to a dedicated, standalone Zephyr Enterprise documentation page. Please see: https://support.smartbear.com/zephyr-enterprise/docs/en/migrating-to-zephyr-enterprise/from-hp-alm/migration-steps/migrate-multiple-projects-in-parallel/2--migrate-projects.html

Info

For a list of migration specifics, see Migration Specifics & Limitations.

After migrating ALM users and execution statuses, you can run several instances of the wizard to migrate multiple projects simultaneously. Follow the migration steps below to start a new wizard instance and migrate a project to Zephyr. The number of concurrent wizard instances is not limited, however, we recommend that you do not migrate too many projects in parallel to avoid performance issues.

...

  • Put the wizard’s .jar file to a new folder on your hard drive for each migration session. The folder will contain the migration log.

  • Specify a different port for different wizard instances.

  • Start a new wizard instance in a new browser tab.

Migration steps

  1. Create a new folder on a computer that has access to both HP ALM and Zephyr, and
    put the .jar file (hpqc-zee-<release>.jar) you downloaded when performing preliminary steps to that folder.

  2. Start the .jar file:

  • Open the command prompt.

  • Navigate to the directory where the .jar file is located.

  • Run the following command:

...

3. Open your browser and enter <IP address>:<port> where <IP address> is that of the computer where you ran the .jar file and <port> is the port number you specified when running the .jar file. For example, localhost:44444. The migration wizard 55555. Please remember that you should use different ports for different wizard instances.
The Migration Wizard page will open:

Info

Start each wizard instance in a new browser tab.

  • You can choose to migrate only some of the entities. For example, if you unselect Releases, all the items related to releases will be unselected as well. In this case, no releases will be migrated. All the migrated test cases will be placed in the Project Test Repository folder, and all the migrated requirements will be placed in the Project Requirements folder.

  • Migrated test step attachments will be in the Attachments section of test cases. Test steps have no attachments in Zephyr.

  • After you start migration, do not change the users' logins or passwords (both in Zephyr and in ALM).

Migration results

After the migration completes, you will see a report in each instance of the wizard:
