Notes
Notify Mirrors
Joduinn sent this on March 16th.
RC1 version
Config Update
This small update to the release config was landed.
Automated Parts
Some of this release-day work makes sense to do from the release automation. Use force build for these.

Stage and Rename Files
Summary:
- Copy files to ~ffxbld and rename to non-RC versions
- Exclude *checksums* because we don't care for individual locale+platform checksums files in the final release dir
- Exclude partial MARs because there's no use for them, no point in pushing them to the mirrors
- Exclude Source packages because they're regenerated for final
- Exclude *SUMS* because we'll be regenerating them.
Details:
# ffxbld@stage mkdir firefox-4.0 cd firefox-4.0 rsync -av --exclude=*checksums* --exclude='*partial.mar' --exclude=source --exclude=*SUMS* /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/4.0rc1/ .
RC 2 Version
Config Update

- Land config update, reconfig pm01
Automated Parts
Some of this release-day work makes sense to do from the release automation. Use force build for these.

Stage and Rename Files
Summary:
- Copy files to ~ffxbld and rename to non-RC versions
- Exclude *checksums* because we don't care for individual locale+platform checksums files in the final release dir
- Exclude partial MARs because there's no use for them, no point in pushing them to the mirrors
- Exclude Source packages because they're regenerated for final
- Exclude *SUMS* because we'll be regenerating them.
Other Verifications
Virus Scan
not done yet Manually trigger on stage with:
# ffxbld@stage python /usr/local/bin/extract_and_run_command.py -j4 clamdscan -m --no-summary -- ~/firefox-4.0
Verify permissions
not done yet manually run permission checks on stage
Verify contents against RC
Index Files
todo: ask justdave how far in advance we should put an index.html in place
Push to Mirrors
justdave says that we should push the index.html 6 hours before the rest of the contents, to ensure it gets everywhere ahead of everything else.
Notify AV Vendors
Need to notify AV vendors after the push to mirrors is done so that they can scan the files.
Push Major Updates
Remove index files
Update symlinks on FTP
To be done
ln -s 4.0 latest-4.0 ln -s latest-4.0 latest
XULRunner
No need to stage or rename files because the 2.0rc1 versions already use "2.0".
