Notes
Build 1
Preparing to start Automation
- Set clobbers for the appropriate masters. Doing this 24-48 hours in advance should speedup the build.
- Reserve slaves
[cltbld@buildbot-master34 master]$ echo "10" > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves
- For build1 only, create a symlink for your $version (eg 11.0b4, 10.0.2esr, 10.0.2, 3.6.27) (until bug 725839 is resolved)
# tbirdbld@stage cd /pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/ mkdir ../candidates/13.0b3-candidates ln -s ../candidates/13.0b3-candidates 13.0b3-candidates
- Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
- Instructions on how to get them
- dashboard
- Land automation configs (are you or buildduty going to reconfig? great, merge. otherwise double-land only your configs)
- Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags. (details)
- hg tag THUNDERBIRD_13_0b3_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
- update and reconfigure the master
# removed all local changes cd /builds/buildbot/build1 make update && make checkconfig && python buildbot-wrangler.py reconfig `pwd`/master
- start automation
cd /builds/buildbot/build1 source bin/activate buildbot sendchange --username=rail --master localhost:9001 --branch=releases/comm-beta \ --comments "THUNDERBIRD 13.0b3 BUILD 1" -p products:thunderbird \ -p script_repo_revision:THUNDERBIRD_13_0b3_BUILD1 release_build
- start automation ← monitor progress on buildbot (e.g. release-comm-beta)
