Notes

RC1

Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M7

Setup before starting:

• used existing version bump bug to attached diff for bootstrap.cfg
  • "cvs update" in /home/buildmaster/Automation/bootstrap-configs/ after checkin. Did a cvs stat first to work out if any local patches or if unexpected changes would be pulled in
  • restarted master
• ensure that machines have enough resources (bug 393274)
  • On production-prometheus-vm remove the contents of /builds/updates/* - didn't need to do this, plenty of space
  • On bm-xserve05 remove the contents of /builds/verify/*
  • On build-console, make sure both private and public areas are synced to stage:
    • rsync -nav /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/2.0.0.11-candidates/ stage.mozilla.org:/home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/2.0.0.11-candidates/
    • removed /home/ftp/pub/thunderbird/ after comparing to staging like above
    • rsync -nav /data/cltbld/firefox-2.0.0.11/ stage:/data/cltbld/firefox-2.0.0.11/
      • expect new directories, but file contents should be the same
  • On build-console, remove private and public areas:
    • rm -rf /data/cltbld/firefox-*
    • rm -rf /builds/tags/* - did not do this, plenty of space
    • in /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/, remove all except the 2.0.0.x-candidates directory for the previous release
• kick off buildbot (run as cltbld):
  • buildbot sendchange --master=localhost:9989 -u joduinn -m"Firefox 2.0.0.12 RC1" release
