813166 - root crontab on dev-stage01 removes latest-* symlinks

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: CIDuty, task)

Description

[John Hopkins (:jhopkins)]

The root crontab on dev-stage01 removes latest-* symlinks so manually created symlinks like

latest-tb-build-integration-aurora -> latest-comm-aurora
latest-tb-build-integration-aurora-l10n -> latest-comm-aurora-l10n

get removed and (when a build is uploaded later) replaced with a directory.  This results in wget_enUS failures for our staging builds.

Looks good to me.

BTW, you would use -not instead of ugly '!'.

root crontab on dev-stage01 has not updated yet.  Need to investigate.

Added manually:
21 * * * *      find /data/ftp/pub/{b2g,firefox,thunderbird,xulrunner,mobile}/nightly/ -type l -mtime +1 '!' -name 'latest-*' -exec rm -rf {} \;

puppet does not run anymore on this host, this is intentional, we need to re-built the host with PuppetAgain (bug 772177).

12:39 armenzg_mtg: how can I determine if puppet runs on dev-stage01?
12:39 armenzg_mtg: or which cycle?
12:39 Callek: armenzg_mtg: it doesn't
12:40 Callek: armenzg_mtg: dev-stage01 was old-puppet, not puppetAgain
12:40 armenzg_mtg: Callek: so host running the old-puppet do not update puppet anymore?
12:40 armenzg_mtg: should we file a bug to redo the host?
12:40 armenzg_mtg: on puppetAgain?
12:41 Callek: armenzg_mtg: correct they do not run puppet anymore, --- I *think* there is a bug on file to have dev-stage01 rebuilt by IT productdelivery puppet
