917978 - self-serve per-product nightlies

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 909543

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Aki Sasaki (not active)]

We often need to respin nightlies for b2g.

On mozilla-b2g18*, QA was able to respin all nightlies from self-serve because "all nightlies" meant "all b2g nightlies".  Somewhat wasteful in resources, but the latest device build directories would be fully populated and QA didn't have to wait on releng/buildduty to trigger.

On mozilla-central or mozilla-aurora, "all nightlies" means "all b2g, fx desktop, fx mobile nightlies" and is hugely wasteful of resources.  Also, IIRC people don't want us to respin desktop nightlies off m-c/m-a because of update testing confusion (I don't know that bug off the top of my head).

I'd ideally like us to expose triggering a specific nightly (e.g. m-c hamachi nightly), but that might be a bit much here.  Maybe when our scheduling has a better story.  I'm hoping we can at least allow for triggering per-product (fx desktop, fx mobile, fx os) nightlies from self-serve, hence this bug.
