  • Set clobbers for the appropriate masters
  • reserved slaves
echo "10">  master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
  • Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
  • Land automation configs
  • Tag buildbot-configs (production), buildbotcustom (production-0.8), tools with {FIREFOX,FENNEC}_8_0b5_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • update and reconfigure the master
make update && make checkconfig && make reconfig
  • release sanity
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u rail -pfirefox,fennec -V 8.0b5 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py -c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --dryrun  localhost:9001
