Question : What is the purpose of various directories in RMsis directory (present in JIRA Home directory)?

Answer : 

The various directories in RMsis directory (present in JIRA Home directory) along with their purpose are mentioned below :

  • backups
    • This directory is used to store database backup, when you are using internal database (i.e. H2).
    • Backup is taken every time when you upgrade your RMsis instance to newer version.
    • Note : 
      • H2 database should be used only for evaluation purpose and should not be used in production environment.
      • If you are using a production database (Oracle/MySQL/ Postgres/ MSSQL), this directory will remain empty.
  • base 
    • As RMsis Application runs its own internal server, this directory is used for store application data for internal server.
  • conf
    • This directory contains files which store the database configuration, JVM configuration, Mail Configuration and Server Configuration for RMsis.
    • These files are automatically created by RMsis during RMsis installation.
  • db 
    • This directory contains the database file for RMsis only if internal/ H2 database is used.
    • If you are using a production database (Oracle/MySQL/ Postgres/ MSSQL), this directory will remain empty.
  • jars 
    • Contains RMsis application files, packaged with RMsis plugin.
  • logs
    • This directory contains logs generated by RMsis Plugin and RMsis application.
