Problem

There is no built-in feature to track Disaster Recovery (DR) replication status directly within the Jira interface or through database queries.

Environment

8.x, 9.x

Cause

The absence of a dedicated feature or tool within Jira for tracking the progress of DR replication operations.

Solution

While a complete solution is not currently available, users can monitor the progress by checking for disaster recovery related messages in the Jira application logs. Additionally, a feature request has been created to address this limitation, which can be tracked at JRASERVER-77131 - UI and Log Enhancement for Monitoring DR Replication Progress in Jira.
