Notes

Build 1

Bootstrap Tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11

Setup before starting:

• Updated master.cfg, bootstrap.cfg. Retagged bootstrap.cfg.
• On the slaves:
  • ran 'DISPLAY=:0 xhost +' to make sure linux AliveTest works.
  • remove /builds/verify/firefox-3.0.2, /builds/verify/firefox-3.0.3
  • update tinderbox to RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
    • For win32:

cd /e/builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox
cvs up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
for dir in fx19rel fx19l10nrel xr19rel; do 
  cd /e/$dir; 
  for f in `ls *.pl *.html INSTALL README | grep -v tinder-config.pl`; do 
    cp -pv /e/builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox/$f .;
  done
  cp -pv post-mozilla-rel.pl post-mozilla.pl
done

• • • On Linux & Mac

cd /builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox
cvs up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11

• • On the linux slave, removed:
    • /builds/updates/firefox-3.0.3
    • /builds/source/firefox-3.0.3
    • /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0.3
  • On the mac slave, removed:

• Space on slaves before starting:
  • fx-linux-1.9-slave2: 27G on /builds
  • fx-mac-1.9-slave2: 24G on /
  • fx-win32-1.9-slave2: 11G on d:, 2G on e: (disk heavy work is done on d, eg update_verify. build/repack is done on e, but mostly just overwrites existing data)

• Gulped, and kicked off automation:
