Test Farm Build Servers

Build Tools

 Build servers have the following tools:

• SunStudio 12 compiler and tools (/opt/SUNWspro/bin)
• SunStudio 11 compiler and tools (/opt/SUNWspro/SS11/bin)
• ON Build Tools (/opt/onbld/bin)

Network Name Resolution

 We plan to provide better network name resolution. In the meantime, there are some useful entries in the /etc/hosts file.

72.5.123.5      hg.opensolaris.org
72.5.123.19     cr.opensolaris.org
72.5.123.21     pkg.opensolaris.org
72.5.124.114    dlc.sun.com

File Transfer

 The scp (secure copy) command can be used to transfer files to and from the build server:

-bash-3.2$ scp source_code  jwalker@132.88.135.75:/bpool/jwalker
source_code   100% |*****************************|  576  00:00

-bash-3.2$ scp jwalker@132.88.135.75:/bpool/jwalker/source_code  source_code.bak
source_code   100% |*****************************|  576  00:00

 Once logged in, the curl command can be used to download source and binary files from websites:

jwalker@x4600-010101:~$ curl -O http://dlc.sun.com/osol/on/downloads/current/on-closed-bins.i386.tar.bz2
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

User Accounts

 Each user account on the build server has the following properties:

• zfs file system (home directory)
• zfs file system quota
• delegated zfs file system permissions including: canmount, clone, compression, create, destroy, mount, mountpoint, receive, rename, rollback, send, share, sharenfs, snapshot

 For example:

jwalker@x4600-010101:~$ zfs list

cr.opensolaris.org

 You will need to add your build server account public ssh key to your opensolaris user profile to update webrev's on cr.opensolaris.org. See cr.opensolaris.org for instructions.

Planned Enhancements

 The following enhancements are planned:

• Add network name resolution
• Add common shared download directory
• Copy new versions of download files as needed automatically
• Establish a local ON hg clone
