[lldb-dev] LLDB bot health

[Stella Stamenova via lldb-dev]

Thanks Davide,

I think several of these bots have not been maintained for a while. One thing we could do is try to ping the owners and see if it's possible to update the bots or if they're no longer useful, then remove them.

Thanks,
-Stella

Thanks for your feedback. As one of the people who encouraged users to report failures they see locally, I would like to point out I wasn't really aware of the existence of many of these bots.
I'm aware there's a subset of people watching the MacOS bots, which are now in a decent state (as part of their day job).
(I personally never heard of the darwin-13.4 bot but if overlaps with what the lldb greendragon bots are testing, it could be as well dismissed, i.e. https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flab.llvm.org%3A8080%2Fgreen%2Fview%2FLLDB%2F&data=02%7C01%7CSTILIS%40microsoft.com%7C1047afc43f0b457102c908d67806f31f%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C636828368585475545&sdata=5UGO69QDiMvM2reR9FP5CxoJeGHQswClNbBdfYFpT4I%3D&reserved=0)

I will personally watch these bots more closely, I cc:ed some of the people involved to see if we can make the situation better.
Have you considered debugging some of the issues you're seeing locally? I'm pretty sure some help would be appreciated.
