Comment 5

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I also added them to slavealloc.
We need a reconfig before rebooting them into production.

Comment 6

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Live in production.

Comment 7

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Enabled on slavealloc.
Rebooting them into production.

Comment 8

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Disabling them.

14:48 philor: Callek|buildduty: https://tbpl.mozilla.org/php/getParsedLog.php?id=31511649&tree=Mozilla-Inbound - I don't really recognize the failure pattern, other than "something's graphically busted here"

Comment 9

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Rebooting them into production after DCOps added the right cables.

Comment 10

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I disabled these machines.
I will put them through staging.
I wish I had a way to VNC to see more.

Comment 11

These need to get added to the graph server, too.

Comment 12

[Armen [:armenzg]]

So far I have discovered that they have different CPUs (2.5 Core i5 versus 2.0 Core i7).
I don't think that is the reason for the graphics issue but this makes them unsuitable for talos testing.

I will dig a bit more.

Hal, the 6 machines on this bug have different specs than the mtnlion testers.
We could use them as Lion builders, however, they would also have different specs.
If we did, should we name them differently than bld-lion-r5 to make sure that they will not get mixed up in the future?

Comment 14

[hwine]

For some reason, these appear to be "non server" models:
$ braindump/mac-related/get_mac_model.sh talos-mtnlion-r5-088 talos-mtnlion-r5-090
Macmini5,3 for talos-mtnlion-r5-088
Macmini5,2 for talos-mtnlion-r5-090

According to MacTracker, 5,3 is the server model. The 5,2 is a consumer model. For builds that is close enough, so no need to mess with naming.

Amy: unsure why we ended up with consumer grade - does this need to get flagged in inventory?

Comment 15

[Dustin J. Mitchell [:dustin] (he/him)]

Yes, that means they're not r5's.  A vague recollection is that we purchased some ad-hoc minis for those foopies, with no effort to match them to the r5 spec.  So Bug 848995 was a pretty expensive mistake.  The inventory history says that their description was changed to say r5 on Feb 28, 2013, but not by whom.  I've fixed that data in inventory.  I see "r5 server" in inventory, too.  There's no such thing.  I'll try to fix that.

Comment 16

[Dustin J. Mitchell [:dustin] (he/him)]

bug 951842 should help a bit at least.

Comment 17

[Armen [:armenzg]]

dustin, we are considering giving these mac minis to the a-team since they have a different configuration than the rest of our pools.

Is this possible?

Comment 18

[Dustin J. Mitchell [:dustin] (he/him)]

As far as I know, yes - they are rackmountable and already in scl3, so there's no reason not to connect them to the ateam VLAN.

Comment 19

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I am giving these machines to the A-team through bug 957218.

Comment 20

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I will have to undo the prep work that I did in here.
