433862 - talos not testing mozilla-central or actionmonkey nightly builds

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

Nightly builds for mozilla-central and actionmonkey report as separate columns on the Tinderbox page, thus the TinderboxPoller in missing them. I think we can solve this in one of two ways:
1) Add an additional TinderboxPoller per platform + branch (6 total) that watch only the nightly columns
2) Make TinderboxPoller capable of watching multiple builders at the same time.

Ugh... if the clobber support isn't hard, could we switch "back" to a single build that does depend or clobber?

Honestly, that's going to take some time. Either of the two options above are easy stop-gap solutions.

Attachment: pull from correct columns for mac actionmonkey builds/nightlies

Looking over the master.cfg, we already have the code in place to correctly pull win/linux actionmonkey builds (once they become available - they are currently burning).  There is a problem with the mac set up as it is currently watching for moz-central columns instead of actionmonkey.  Oops.

That would explain why mac talos actionmonkey machines have long ago fallen off the waterfall.

Now pulling builds correctly - should auto pick up nightlies once they become available.
