This table AO_6FF49D_MIGRATION_ENTITY is used by the Jira Cloud Migration Assistant for migrating between Server and Cloud instances. Jira 8.16.1 in particular may have some issues with the schema missing specifically for this AO table.
Atlassian recommends to create a new schema for the Jira tables, otherwise the instance may face further issues.
If the schema is missing altogether, it is absolutely critical that it is specified otherwise it will cause significant problems with the JIRA instance.
Solution
Follow the steps in the KB article Change the schema name for Jira database tables.
