Notes

Build 1

Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M10 Setup before starting:

  • Updated /builds/buildbot/Automation/buildbot-configs on production-1.8-master.
    • master.cfg is "Locally Modified" to contain passwords. Identical to repository version otherwise.
    • Turned off the nightly builders on production-1.8-master to make sure they don't interfere with the release. (We need to figure out how to avoid this in the future).
    • update mozilla1.8 tinderbox to say "no nightlies right now"
    • Ran 'buildbot reconfig'
  • update /builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox to the Bootstrap tag (need to revert this before restarting nightlies)
    • Had to tag this first. It was missed when RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M10 was created.
  • ensure that machines have enough resources
    • production-prometheus-vm - 32G on /
    • production-1.8-master - 11G on /builds, 4G on /data
    • production-pacifica-vm - 33.4G on c:
    • bm-xserve05 - 32G on /
