Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

<a href="Release:Release Automation on Mercurial:Documentation#Starting_the_automation">detailed instructions</a>

  • Set clobbers for the appropriate masters. Doing this 24-48 hours in advance should speedup the build.
  • Reserve slaves, e.g.:
[cltbld@buildbot-master13 master]$ pwd
/builds/buildbot/build1/master
[cltbld@buildbot-master13 master]$ cat reserved_slaves_bm13-build1 
8
  • For build1 only, create a symlink for your $version (eg 11.0b4, 10.0.2esr, 10.0.2, 3.6.27) (until bug 725839 is resolved)
# ffxbld@stage
cd /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/
mkdir ../candidates/$version-candidates
ln -s ../candidates/$version-candidates $version-candidates

kmoir to here

 hg tag -f {FIREFOX,FENNEC}_13_0b4_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • updated and reconfigure the master via fabric

L10N verify

Failed on mac after hy-AM, other platforms okay. This verify step scheduled to be removed (bug 749748), so "mach nicht".

Rest OK

OK

Updates

OK

Update verify

OK

Reset reserved slaves

The final release with this naming convention, so just got rid of the file:

    rm reserved_slaves_bm13-build1

Check permissions / AV scan

OK

Push to internal mirrors

OK

automation failure on bld-centos6-hp-* hosts bug 753053, so manually pushed.

Had to reconfig master in middle of run for bug 753300, so uptake monitoring broke. Manually sent "ready for releasetest" emails.

Final verification

Record receipt of "completed_final_verification" emails (1 per platform)

Going to Beta

Run backupsnip

NOTE: Remember to do this at least 2 hours ahead of the expected "go to beta" email. details

 $ cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/
 $ time ~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-13.0b4-build1

Done in 9 minutes

Push to beta

Wait for "go" from release managers
For Firefox:

  • Publish (and record run time here): details
  • on completion, email r-d that VERSION updates are live on the beta channel

pushsnip ran in 7m21.799s; email sent to r-d

For Android: no android this release

Wait for confirmation from QA that each of the above releases is okay, then close the tracking ticket.
