Notes

Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

  • Set clobbers for "any master", "mozilla-1.9.2", "any builder"
  • Reserve slaves
  • Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile No l10n changes for a chemspill
  • Landed automation configs
  • Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags
  • update and reconfigure the master
  • start automation
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u nthomas -p firefox -V 3.6.27 --branch  mozilla-1.9.2 --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-1.9.2.py --dryrun localhost:9001

This failed because bug 697611 assumes that there is a mozconfigs dict defined in the release config, filed bug 727740. Worked around by cloning tools to ~cltbld/tools and updating to FIREFOX_3_6_26_RELEASE. Retry:

Unittests / Talos

  1. Look to see that they ran
  2. Document any oranges (per platform) for unittests - if possible, try to confirm it's known/random
  3. Make sure there's no red/failures that we need to have a dev look at

Updates

Worked fine, except that backupsnip was going to time out again, so I killed it and did the rest by hand. I skipped the backupsnip to save us some load. Ran the following to finish things up: 

# cltbld@aus2-staging
cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging
~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.27-build1-test

# cltbld@mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave02
cd /builds/slave/rel-m-192-updates/build/temp/firefox/3.6.26-3.6.27
rsync -av -e 'ssh -oIdentityFile=~/.ssh/cltbld_dsa' aus2.beta/ cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org:/opt/aus2/snippets/staging/Firefox-3.6.27-build1-beta
rsync -av -e 'ssh -oIdentityFile=~/.ssh/cltbld_dsa' aus2/ cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org:/opt/aus2/snippets/staging/Firefox-3.6.27-build1

After the pushsnip completed I forced the update verify builders and check permissions builder. I didn't do the virus scan right away because surf was already starting to get bogged down a bit. See virus scan section for details on it.

Update verify

Major Update

Used "Force Build" to start the builder.

Major Update verify

Reset reserved slaves

Check permissions / AV scan

No permissions problems, no viruses. Virus scan was done on an ix machine, roughly like this:

  • Installed clamav and clamav-db
  • rsynced files from keymaster01
  • Ran the following:
# root
rpm -i clamav*.rpm
freshclam
su - cltbld
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools
python tools/stage/extract_and_run_command.py -j4 clamscan -- 3.6.27/ &> scan.log
