Build 1

• Done on pm.
• Marked pm for a clobber, all builders, all branches with clobberer
• Moved the following to pm:
  • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave09,12-14, moz2-linux-slave{30,31,32,33}
  • mw32-ix-slave{02,04,05,08}
  • bm-xserve19, moz2-darwin9-slave{09,10,11,12,21,22,23}
  • After moving the above slaves marked the following for clobbering again (because I'm not 100% sure of the behaviour of clobberer after a slave moves masters):
    • linux_{repack,update_verify,l10n_verification}
    • macosx_{repack,update_verify,l10n_verification}
    • updates
• Landed automation config
• Deleted .pyc files

# cltbld@production-master
rm /builds/buildbot/moz2-master/*.pyc

• Reconfiged master
• Closed Firefox3.6 tree
• Started automation

buildbot sendchange --username=bhearsum --master=localhost:9010 --branch=releases/mozilla-1.9.2 -m "Firefox 3.6.9 build1" Go

Tag

No problems. Manually tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, and tools with FIREFOX_3_6_9_{BUILD1,RELEASE}. Reopened tree and landed version bump.

Source

No problems with Firefox source. XULRunner source timed out when cloning mozilla-1.9.2. hg server was heavily loaded at the time; manually clobbered the slave and kicked a new run.

Build/Repack

• Linux: no problems with the en-US or l10n builds
• Mac: no problems with en-US or l10n builds
• Windows: no problems with en-US or l10n builds

XULRunner Builds

No problems
