For posterity, both linux update verifies were run on bld-centos6-hp-016 (64-bit outside of mock, 32-bit inside of mock). bld-lion-r5-005 was used for Mac. w64-ix-slave21 was used for Windows.

Funnelcake

We're running two funnelcake experiments as part of Firefox 29: funnelcake 30,31 (bug 976735)

Funnelcake repacks were created as part of release automation, with the exception of linux64, which wasn't initially requested. Rail created and uploaded the linux64 repacks manually.

I created bouncer entries for the funnelcake installers:

We also needed stub installers for windows. I created those on w64-ix-slave136 (which did the release builds), following the instructions https://bug933847.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8338878. I used https://bug976735.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8411340 to patch the stub installer files to include the funnelcake identifiers. The stubs are available in the partner repack directories beside the full installers.

I also created bouncer entries for the stub installers:

As well as entries for the products that the stub requests:

These last two must not have the SSL box checked.

rsync -av /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/candidates/29.0-candidates/build1/partner-repacks/funnelcake31/ \

    cp /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/29.0/index.html $d
done

Then update all the bouncer links above to point to new location.


Release day

Manually updated bouncer links for "firefox-stub" and "firefox-latest" since QA signoff was delayed.

Zeus caching of AUS made it a bit more difficult to test the updates after unthrottling.
