Notifications

  • We have to notify AV vendors once the signed bits are on candidates directory (for email address and template example, see bug 568884#c15 )
  • We have to give mirrors as much notice as possible before pushing to mirrors. This has been 24-72 hours, but has been up to a week in advance. (for email address and template example, see bug 633657 )
  • We have to notify infra-all@ before "go to build" and before we ship. The more advance notice the better.
  • We have to notify metrics once we release

Bugs hit

  • bug 644120 - Don't use _nextFastReservedSlave for some release builders
  • bug 634428#c4 - A not-set-up slave from staging was connected to production
  • bug 643976 - 3.6.15 -> 3.6.16 and 3.5.17 -> 3.5.18 updates on releasetest actually point to 4.0
    • this happened because of the 4.0 MU
  • bug 628795 - remove en-US.xpi (this should not be an issue for 3.6.17 if it is not a chemspill)
  • bug 644120 - We had to move a slave from pm01 to pm03 since there were no available IX machines and the job would not be taken by normal linux slaves.

Remove en-US.xpi

You want to remove the en-US.xpi before autosigning creates the MD5SUMS and the SHA1SUMS.

Please remove this section once bug 628795 is fixed.

L10n Repack

Push to Beta Channel

NB: This was a chemspill-ish release so this happened after the release snippets were pushed, see below. 

#From a build slave you can reach aus2-staging
#cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org
#This takes now a lot of time because of PHX datacenter
cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/
~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-3.6.16-build1-beta
~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.16-build1-beta

Email mirrors about release day date

NOTE: See Notifications section for more details.

DONE

Going live day!

Final checks before push & virus scan

This has run properly automatically.

Push to Mirrors

bug 644120. We had to move a slave from pm01 to pm03 since there were no available IX machines and the job would not be taken by normal linux slaves.

Forced push_to_mirrors builder with the following properties set:

  • release_config: mozilla/release-firefox-mozilla-1.9.2.py
  • script_repo_revision: FIREFOX_3_6_16_RELEASE

Push to community mirrors: 

# cltbld@stage
vim -n /pub/mozilla.org/zz/rsyncd-mozilla-current.exclude
# replace 3.6.15 with 3.6.16

Final Verification

Will be triggered automatically when there is enough uptake.

Push release test channel snippets

See bug 643976. We had to re-push this because the 4.0 MU overwrote the snippets. 

#From a build slave you can reach aus2-staging
#cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org
#This takes now a lot of time because of PHX datacenter
cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging
~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.16-build1-test
