Build 1

• Marked all builders for all releases on pm for a clobber -- https://build.mozilla.org/clobberer/ has a Release Clobber option if you are not connected to Build VPN

• Moved the following slaves to pm:
  • from pm03:
    • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave10
    • mw32-ix-slave18
    • mw32-ix-slave15
  • from pm01:
    • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave02
    • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave03
    • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave04
    • mw32-ix-slave02
    • mw32-ix-slave03
    • bm-xserve06
    • bm-xserve11
    • bm-xserve12
    • bm-xserve16
    • moz2-linux64-slave04
    • moz2-linux64-slave06
    • moz2-darwin10-slave05
    • moz2-darwin10-slave06

• Landed config patch
• Reconfigured pm (delete *.pyc files)
  • needed to delete some files on pm since it was out of space (deleted /tmp/tmp* and got 2.3 GB)
• sendchange to get things running:

buildbot sendchange --username=lsblakk --master=localhost:9010 --branch=mozilla-central -m "Firefox 4.0b4 build1" Go

Tag

mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave04

• I had not reconfigured pm (all that fun with checkconfig messing up distracted me!) and so the first run of tag did 4.0b3 tagging instead
• Beltzner had already given the request to cancel builds and wait for new additions to the 4.0b4 build2 so I re-did tagging (on the same slave) with force build after reconfiging and clobbering.
• Re-did build1 tagging with the correct config to cut the relbranch.

After tagging completed we stopped for:

• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587922 (fix needed)
• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585877 (backout)

Build 2

• Removed *pyc on pm moz2-master
• Clobbered the release builders (NOTE: do not be connected to Build-VPN)
• Used same l10n-changesets as build1 since Axel did not respond to ping
• Landed configs
• Reconfig & close m-c tree
• Sendchange:

buildbot sendchange --username=lsblakk --master=localhost:9010 --branch=mozilla-central -m "Firefox 4.0b4 build2" go

Tag

mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave04

• tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, tools with FIREFOX_4_0b4_BUILD2, FIREFOX_4_0b4_RELEASE (and also did BUILD1 since that hadn't happened yet)

no problems

Build/Repack

No Problems on all platforms (linux,linux64,macosx,macosx64,win32)

Unittests

• Sendchanges were not correctly formed in the automation (bug 585098 was checked in but pm buildbotcustom had not been updated) so I manually did sendchanges to get linux/linux64/macosx/macosx64 results:

Results

• Linux/Linux64/Macosx64 builds did not make tests, upload tests, thus failed tests
• Win32 had a green run on the tests run on pm, but had intermittent orange on the ones run on minis (two runs, since I triggered a second set manually)
• Macosx ran orange on all but jsreftest and reftest

Signing

Using instructions - I found that the last step of verifying hangs and I had to kill the process. Both times it got stuck trying to unpack a mar (different ones):

Error unpacking mar file d:/signing-work/firefox-4.0b4/signed-build2/update/win32/cs/firefox-4.0b4.complete.mar to /cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/cltsign/LOCALS~1/Temp/1/tmpX_8Vf8

L10N Verify

• metadiff for win32_l10n had warnings - on all locales - about chrome.jar being different

Updates

mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave03

• first run of updates blew up on downloading 75/363, I moved updates/builds dir aside and tried again and got past 75 on the downloading.

Build 3

• missed the maxVer bump required for the Feedback Add-On
• clobbered release builders
• no l10n changes - checked with Axel in #release-drivers
• reconfig pm (Note updated buildbotcustom before this build)
• notified #developers (changed topic even!) and closed tree for tagging
  • Why do we close the tree for tagging? Our automation doesn't cope well with losing a push race
• sendchange:

buildbot sendchange --username=lsblakk --master=localhost:9010 --branch=mozilla-central -m "Firefox 4.0b4 build3" doit

Tag

mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave04

• tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, tools with FIREFOX_4_0b4_BUILD3, FIREFOX_4_0b4_RELEASE
