Configuration Manager for Jira needs to be licensed on all instances where it's used.

A commercial license is needed on all production Jira servers for doing production work. Every commercial license comes with an unlimited number of [developer licenses](https://www.atlassian.com/licensing/purchase-licensing#licensing-10) that can be used on non-production Jira instances corresponding to the one where the commercial license is installed. E.g. in a [Test-Staging-Production](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CMJ/pages/198279492/Test+-+Staging+-+Production) scenario a commercial CMJ license is needed only on the Production Jira.

For a [migration](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CMJ/pages/198021865/Merge+Jira+Servers) a commercial license is needed only for the target production Jira server. <span style="color: #172B4D">For the source production Jira server, you can also use commercial or trial licenses, or you can reach out at </span><span style="color: #172B4D">our </span>[<span style="color: #172B4D">Support Portal</span>](https://appfire.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portals)<span style="color: #172B4D">, and we can provide you with a free license.</span>
