Servo mac3 reprovision

[edunham]

This ticket is for my reference and testing the newly checklist-ified instructions from https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/SaltStack-Administration, because it turns out picking things back up at the right spot after handling interrupts isn't something brains are optimized for.

• Get password from ticket

• Install latest or compatible Xcode and commandline tools from the Appstore
  If the app store version of xcode is incompatible with the OSX version:

  • Look up what version of xcode is required for the OSX version
  • Download that version from developer.apple.com/download/more (use search box)
  • When download is complete, double click the .dmg in downloads and follow the drag-and-drop instructions to install
  • If there's a gray 🚫 on the xcode icon, OS updates are required to run it. Click applications, click the updates tab, and let it reboot and install updates.
  • Run xcodebuild --install when connected via VNC viewer. The installation command creates pop-ups which must be clicked to successfully install xcode.

• Verify the license:

sudo xcodebuild -license

• Install brew and git and pip:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew analytics off
brew install git
echo export PATH='/usr/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
sudo easy_install -s /usr/bin pip

• Download salt files:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/servo/saltfs/master/.travis/install_salt.sh | sh -s osx
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saltstack/salt/develop/pkg/darwin/com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist

• Add the following to the com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist file just after the Label section:

     <key>EnvironmentVariables</key>
    <dict>
        <key>PATH</key>
        <string>/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin</string>
        <key>HOME</key>
        <string>/Users/administrator</string>
    </dict>

sudo cp com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/
sudo bash -c "echo '52.37.76.55 salt' >> /etc/hosts"
sudo mkdir /etc/salt
sudo mkdir /var/log/salt
sudo salt-run launchd.write_launchd_plist salt-minion
printf 'id: servo-mac10' | sudo tee /etc/salt/minion # replace servo-linux10 with the builder name 
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.saltstack.salt.minion.plist

• Set screen resolution to 1280x960 or else reftests will fail randomly

• Create a standard user named 'Tom Servo', account name servo, give him a password, and log in.

  • Set up to autologin on reboot. LEAVE LOGGED IN (else reftests will fail)

• Do the following to stop coreaudiod from using 100% of a cpu:

sudo launchctl load -w /system/library/launchdaemons/com.apple.blued.plist

• And do this to stop mds/mdworker from using another 100% of a cpu:

sudo launchctl unload -w /system/library/launchdaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist 

• Delete any residual files which might be left in /Users/administrator/Downloads, as they're implicated in issues with FileStatsAgent.

host failed some OS updates but they appear to have installed correctly on the second try

[edunham]

installed xcode but xcodebuild --install yields error complaining that it is a commandline tools instance. Re-installing.
