797388 - Borrow a linux test machine to debug unittest failures

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Rob Campbell [:rc] (:robcee)]

We have a bunch of test failures related to webgl on linux. We're tracking these failures in bug 759157, but are at an impasse with what we can do without access to the machines. It could be driver-related. It could be hardware. We just don't know.

Can we borrow one to do some testing please? Thanks!

Is there an ETA on this?

talos-r3-fed-002 loaned. Please reassign it to nobody once you're done with the slave. Password sent.

I'll require build-vpn access as well to optimize the debugging process on those failures. Is that ok Rail?

Is the BuildVPN access still needed? (I'm on duty this week)

That would be swell!

Credentials have been emailed to Victor.

NOTE: We still need bug 802117 to be resolved before you can have access.

This bug has now been resolved - Rob, presume you no longer have a need for this slave? :-)

It may be wise to keep it around for another week, in case the oranges start being chatty again, but I don't feel strongly about it.

if it doesn't hurt us to hang onto it for another week, then let's keep it. Otherwise, return it to the pool whence it originated!

The failures stopped occurring, it's fine to let the slave do its thing now :)
