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 |

After migrating ALM users and execution statuses, you can run several instances of the wizard to start simultaneous migration of multiple projects. To start the first instance:
1. Run the downloaded .jar file.
2. Run the migration wizard in the browser and specify the required data:
...
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.
Important
Put the wizard’s
.jarfile 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
Create a new folder on a computer that has access to both HP ALM and Zephyr, and
put the.jarfile (hpqc-zee-<release>.jar) you downloaded when performing preliminary steps to that folder.Start the
.jarfile:
Open the command prompt.
Navigate to the directory where the
.jarfile is located.Run the following command:
java -jar -Dserver.port=xxxxx -Xms2048m -Xmx2048m hpqc-zee-x.x.x.jar
– Dserver.port is the port on the server where the .jar file will run. For example, -Dserver.port=55555.
Important: Use different port numbers for different wizard instances running concurrently.
– Xms2048m and Xmx2048m are the minimum and maximum memory that can be allocated for running the .jar file. 2048 MB in our example.
– hpqc-zee-x.x.x.jar is the file you downloaded. For example, hpqc-zee-1.5.5.jar.

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:

55555. Please remember that you should use different ports for different wizard instances.

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
...
Now, to start migrating another project, repeat all the steps described above, but this time, specify another port number.
Before running the .jar file create a new folder and place the file in it. Once done, start a new wizard instance in a new browser tab.
The number of concurrent migration sessions is not limited, but we recommend that you launch a reasonable number of instances to avoid performance issues.

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).

After migrating all of your projects, you need to disable those the users that are disabled in HP ALM and perform full reindexing in Zephyr.
To learn how to do that, see Disable Users.–
