How can you verify the integrity of a JIRA backup file before performing a restore operation?

Verifying the integrity of a JIRA backup file is essential to ensure its reliability before performing a restore operation. One method to verify integrity is to perform a test restore in a separate environment to confirm that the backup can be successfully restored without errors. Additionally, comparing checksums or file sizes between the original and backup files can help detect any discrepancies that may indicate corruption. Checking file permissions and renaming the file can also be part of the verification process to ensure proper access and identification of the backup file.
