These instructions are probably incomplete, but should serve as a good starting point for setting up a new buildbot master.  If you find something missing or inaccurate, please update!


* Create a new directory for your master, e.g. /builds/buildbot/mymaster
* Create a virtual environment for your master
<pre>
virtualenv --distribute --no-site-packages -p /tools/python-2.6.5/bin/python /builds/buildbot/mymaster
</pre>
* Install required packages
<pre>
source /builds/buildbot/mymaster/bin/activate
cd /builds/buildbot/mymaster
pip install simplejson
pip install mysql-python
pip install Twisted==10.1.0
pip install sqlalchemy
pip install argparse
pip install pycrypto
pip install pyasn1
pip install pyopenssl==0.10
pip install http://hg.mozilla.org/users/clegnitto_mozilla.com/mozillapulse/archive/tip.tar.bz2
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot
(cd buildbot/master; $PYTHON setup.py develop install)
(cd buildbot/slave; $PYTHON setup.py develop install)
hg clone -b production-0.8 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbotcustom
hg clone -b production http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools
</pre>
* Add Makefile
<pre>
PWD=$(shell pwd)
BUILDBOT=$(PWD)/bin/buildbot
HG=/tools/python-2.6.5/bin/hg
export PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1
export PYTHONPATH=/builds/buildbot/mymaster/tools/lib/python
start:
        cd master && $(BUILDBOT) start $$PWD
stop:
        cd master && $(BUILDBOT) stop $$PWD
restart:
        cd master && $(BUILDBOT) restart $$PWD
reconfig:
        cd master && $(BUILDBOT) reconfig $$PWD
checkconfig:
        cd master && $(BUILDBOT) checkconfig
update:
        (cd buildbotcustom && $(HG) pull && $(HG) update -C)
        (cd buildbot-configs && $(HG) pull && $(HG) update -C)
        (cd tools && $(HG) pull && $(HG) update -C)
version:
        $(BUILDBOT) --version
</pre>
* Setup master
<pre>
mkdir master
cd master
ln -s ../buildbot-configs/config.py .
ln -s ../buildbot-configs/production_config.py localconfig.py
etc. --catlee too tired to fill this in right now. add symlinks and run make checkconfig until it works!
</pre>
* Setup cron jobs
<pre>
# In /home/cltbld/.mymaster_update_from_files.conf
[DEFAULT]
database = mysql://buildbot:password@tm-b01-master01.mozilla.org/buildbot
master = http://fqdn:http_port
name = My master!
# In /etc/cron.d/mymaster
MAILTO=release@mozilla.com
@hourly cltbld (source /home/cltbld/.bash_profile && /builds/buildbot/mymaster/bin/python tools/buildfarm/maintenance/watch_twistd_log.py -t .mymaster-last-time.txt -n mymaster -f cltbld@`hostname --fqdn` -e release@mozilla.com /builds/buildbot/mymaster/master)

</pre>
* Update [http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/default/buildfarm/maintenance/production-masters.json production-masters.json] in tools and the [https://intranet.mozilla.org/RelEngWiki/index.php/Masters master list], if appropriate
* Make sure to file an IT bug to get nagios checks added for the master if necessary
* SSH Keys
** Copy production ssh keys (for ffxbld and trybld) to ~/.ssh.
** Make sure you can ssh to ffxbld@dm-pvtbuild01.mozilla.org and ffxbld@stage.mozilla.org
* Make sure NTP is running!
