I think there's a rush to add FC27 and S390 (unrelated?) to the build. If either fail, right now, I don't think we should be too concerned with them.

In the very near future we should be, though.

Hi All,

We have been seeing a large amount of changes that are not deployed into tested lately because of failed build-artifacts jobs so we decided that perhaps we need to explain the importance of fixing a failed build-artifacts job.

If a change failed a build-artifacts job, no matter what platform/arch it failed in, the change will not be deployed to tested.

Here is an example of a change that will not be added to tested:

As you can see, only one of the build-artifacts jobs failed but since the project specify that it requires all of these arches/platforms, the change will not be added to tested until all of the jobs are fixed.

So what can we do?

1. Add the code which builds-artifacts to 'check-patch' so you'll get a -1 if a build failed (assuming you will not merge with -1 from CI).

2. post merge - look for emails on failed artifacts on your change (you will have to fix the job and then re-trigger the change)

3. you can see all current broken failed artifacts jobs in jenkins under 'unstable critical' view [1] and you will know if your project is being deployed.
4. Remove the broken OS from your project ( either from Jenkins or from your automation dir if you're using V2 ) - ask us for help! this should be an easy patch
5.Don't add new OS builds until you're absolutly sure they work ( you can add check-patch to keep testing it, but don't add build-artifacts until its stable ).

Please contact myself or anyone else from the CI team for assistance or questions and we would be happy to help.
