Retag fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg

  • cvs tag -d RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg # to delete the tag on the old version
  • cvs tag RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg # to tag the new version

Bootstrap tag: Setup before starting:

  • Updated /builds/buildbot/Automation/buildbot-configs on production-1.8-master.
    • master.cfg is "Locally Modified" to contain passwords. Identical to repository version otherwise.
    • Turned off the nightly builders on production-1.8-master to make sure they don't interfere with the release. (We need to figure out how to avoid this in the future).
    • update mozilla1.8 tinderbox to say "no nightlies right now"
    • Ran 'buildbot reconfig'
  • update /builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox to the Bootstrap tag (need to revert this before restarting nightlies)
  • ensure that machines have enough resources
    • production-prometheus-vm - 32G in /
    • production-1.8-master - 31G in /builds, 26G in /data
    • production-pacifica-vm - 38G in c:/
    • bm-xserve05 - 21G in /

Tag

Mis-tagged fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg (tagged old bootstrap.cfg with latest tag). Caught early on but required renaming release tag and restarting tagging.
