From MozillaWiki
This page describes how to set-up a new Buildbot Master.
OS
- Install glibc-2.5-42.el5_4.3 (CentOS 5.0 only)
The Master Instance
First, to get the master directory prepped and cronjobs set-up, do this on the machine:
# cltbld@wherever BASEDIR=/builds/buildbot/my_master MASTER_NAME=my_master_name # Must be one from ./setup-master.py -8 -l PYTHON=/tools/python-2.6.5/bin/python VIRTUALENV=/tools/python-2.6.5/bin/virtualenv HG=/tools/python-2.6.5/bin/hg hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs cd buildbot-configs make -f Makefile.setup all BASEDIR=$BASEDIR MASTER_NAME=$MASTER_NAME VIRTUALENV=$VIRTUALENV PYTHON=$PYTHON HG=$HG
Then, update whatever files the Makefile instructs you too with correct passwords, descriptions, etc.
