When Nightly merges into Aurora every 6 weeks we lock Aurora updates at a specific old version for a period of time (days to a week) while QA runs some tests. Once their tests have passed, we re-enable updates. This document describes how to do both of these things.

Disabling Updates

  • Change the Firefox and Fennec "aurora" channel to a specific nightly buildid in Balrog. For example, "20131019004007". Release Management should specify the buildid to use. Once you have that, do the following:
    1. Go to the Balrog Admin interface's rules page.
    2. Find the rule that has "Fennec" for the product and "aurora" for the channel.
    3. Click the "Mapping" drop down for that rule and find the "Fennec-mozilla-aurora-nightly" entry that contains the requested buildid and select it.
    4. Scroll to the right and click "Update" to make the change.
    5. Repeat the above instructions for Firefox and MetroFirefox.

Enabling Updates

  • Change the Firefox and Fennec "aurora" channels back to the -latest release:
    1. Go to the Balrog Admin interface's rules page.
    2. Find the rule that has "Fennec" for the product and "aurora" for the channel.
    3. Click the "Mapping" drop down for that rule and select "Fennec-mozilla-aurora-nightly-latest".
    4. Scroll to the right and click "Update" to make the change.
    5. Repeat the above instructions for Firefox and MetroFirefox.
