Build 1

  • Marked all builders for all branches (picking just one branch doesn't work right now) 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 Slaves to pm
    • from pm01
      • bm-xserve{06,11,12,16}
      • mw32-ix-slave{02,03,04}
      • moz2-darwin10-slave{05,06,07}
      • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave{02,03}
    • from pm03
      • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave{08,11}
      • moz2-linux64-slave{01,02,03}
      • mw32-ix-slave{14}
  • Landed configs patch
  • Updated /tools/buildbotcustom, removed /builds/buildbot/moz2-master/*.pyc, checkconfig
  • Closed tree for tagging and then started automation with:
buildbot sendchange --username=lsblakk --master=localhost:9010 --branch=mozilla-central -m "Firefox 4.0b5 build1" Go

Tag

Source

mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave03

No problems

Build/Repack

  • Announce the build candidates dir link in the Releases wiki
  • Linux build/repack - no problems
  • Linux64 build/repack - no problems
  • Macosx64 build/repack - no problems
  • Macosx build/repack - no problems
  • Win32 build - no problems
    • id repack failed because it lost the slave so I did a force build setting branch=id, en_revision&l10n_revision=FIREFOX_4_0b5_RELEASE, and locale=id
    • id passed repack on second run

Returned slaves (all but 2 linux, and one per OS for post-signing)

  • mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave{02,03} -> pm01
  • moz2-linux64-slave{02,03} -> pm03
  • moz2-darwin10-slave{06,07} -> pm01
  • bm-xserve{11,12,16} -> pm01
  • mw32-ix-slave{02,03,04} -> pm01

Triggered properly, no problems.
