1150679 - Slave loan request for a bld-linux64-ec2 vm

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: CIDuty, task)

Description

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I'm developing in bug 1148546 some update testing which would run much much faster if inside of the releng network.
I want to run next week, once we have beta2 on ftp, a full run of verify.sh.

If I could have this by Monday EOD or Tuesday it would be great.

I need a Linux 64 bit build machine.

Thanks!

Hi Armen,

I am going to assign this to you to keep track of the loan.

When you are finished with the loan forever, please comment stating so here in the bug, and mark the bug as RESOLVED.


By the way, now that this aws instance has been created, starting and stopping it can happen in a flash!
If you are not going to be using this machine for multiple hours, let us know in this bug and we can stop it.

Comment again when you want it started back up.
* For faster turnaround, ping #releng (look for nick with 'buildduty')

Thanks Massimo.
Could you please help me enable VNC on this machine? I can't figure it out.

The VNC service is only available on test machines and it is not installed on linux build machines.

Should we loan you a test slave instead?

restarted

Comment 13

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Thank you so much. This can be stopped again.

I won't need it for a bit.
I think I might ask for this to be reverted if I have no more need for it.

Comment 14

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Let me know if you are OK for me to have it few days up without bothering you it about it!

Comment 15

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I will probably need it once more this week once bug 1156475 is fixed.

Let me know if you prefer me not to request to turn it on/off so frequently.

Comment 16

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Please stop this when you have a chance.
I might need it again mid-week.

Thanks!
