Hi all,
This is a warning since we plan a code freeze for tomorrow: a lot of
jobs are failing (timeout, or just compilation or assembling issue,
or Jenkins configuration). As developers on a component, you must
react to a build becoming red, so don't ignore Jenkins mail
notifications, read the log when a build fails and fix it ASAP,
if you can. You may be interested in receiving mails specifically
for your component, so you can add you mail address on the
Configuration page, "Mail notifications" section.
In some cases, log is explicit and shows what file crashed the
build. So you can guess what you need to do to fix it.
In other cases, it is be an environment issue, then open a ticket to
the Build/Releng component and assign it to Nick or I depending on
your timezone, so we can help to get the job back to work.
Since we are moving to bigger components, with more isolation, you
really need to be careful about the status of your component CI job.
Please don't wait for QE or Build crew to discover issues and fix
it, it simply won't scale.
Cheers,
