Possible bugs

• Write a tool to update bugzilla bugs for outstanding machine loans and ask if the loaner is still needed on say, a weekly basis: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1171165
• Long Inter-Job Timing on t-yosemite-r7 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1258480
• Create new script to setup a buildbot master for development: https://bugzil.la/1275135
  • [alin]: Iris & Alison are working on this

From coop:

• https://bugzil.la/1253312 - TC Linux 32 debug builds Tier-1

From kmoir:

• How are preparations for the mercurial upgrades going for build/test machines? (to support bug 1298976)
  • [alin]: still need to be done for Windows 10 testers
• Other possible bugs:
  • Schedule win10vm test jobs on try https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1304065 - what’s the status here?
  • Create alerts for t-w732 and g-w732 pending https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1304158
  • Is there further automation that you can implement to make regular tasks easier i.e. the machine loan email as a template
    • [alin]: as discussed in Hawaii, we’ll start investigating what improvements can be done here
  • Other goals
    • Puppet master upgrades: we're on a really old version, and should have a better story for upgrades going forward. We can move a single platform to start

SV: 2017/01/09 - 2017/01/13

• New buidduty team member: Sebastian Păcurar (:spacurar) \o/
  • Mozilla account (?)
  • Like in our case, he’ll need access to several places:
    • AWS console
    • Releng LDAP group
    • Inventory
    • Permissions for vpn_releng_group (slave loan purposes)
    • Account on winadmin host (?)
• Bug 1326471 - Ash runs talos-g4 despite being 'enable_talos': False
  • Some talos jobs are still being scheduled even though 'enable_talos' is set to False in project_branches.py
• Bug 1315977 - Mac build machines doing l10n repacks need python 2.7.6 or newer
  • 4 bld-lion-r5 machines are loaned to my puppet environment
  • These machine will have python version 2.7.12
  • Buildbot doesn’t start automatically and by running manually, machine get restarted at some point and the job is interrrupted:
    • /opt/runner/bin/python2.7 /opt/runner/bin/runner -v --syslog -H -n 15 -c /opt/runner/runner.cfg /opt/runner/tasks.d
    • Example for bld-lion-r5-070
    • Kmoir - did you change runner config when you loaner yourself the machine (I can look again at the machine too)
• Bug 1328238 - OS X 10.10 debug test run into hdiutil: attach failed - image data corrupted for installer.dmg (local variable 'appDir' referenced before assignment)"
  • any idea how I could test a job here using specific platform,branch and buildername on my loaner
  • I took a buildprops.json from a similar job and manually changed the parameters to match my requirements( OSX 10.10 autoland debug)but then I hit other errors
  • Kmoir - how are you invoking the job? A manual sendchange or just invoking the builder?
