547072 - Some talos boxes seem broken

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Shawn Wilsher :sdwilsh]

While looking at the mac talos graphs for tp4, I noticed some machines are reporting some numbers that look off with the rest.  These are the following machines:
talos-rev2-leopard04
talos-rev2-leopard13
talos-rev2-leopard08
talos-rev2-leopard07 (the color is a little hard to tell on this one, so I may be wrong)

I think this is the reason why my ~9% regression was not caught by the regression script, but I'm not sure.

This would have been caught with the new rev3 machines see:

Wow - that's a big link.  We haven't turned on regression checks for these boxes yet as they were in a semi-production phase.  In the next week we should see the rev2 machines turned off and rev3 be the only machines we check.

Thus, I don't believe that it is worth it to deeply investigate rev2 machine poor behavior that would most likely result in a round of re-imaging.

RESOLVED WONTFIX? since this gets solved by rev3 machines coming into production?

Comment 3

[John O'Duinn [:joduinn] (please use "needinfo?" flag)]

sdwilsh: we've dropped the rev2 machines for the newer rev3 machines. If this is a problem with the new rev3 machines, please reopen.
