[Labs-announce] [breaking change] [tool labs] jsub default changed to --release=trusty

[Bryan Davis]

On 2016-10-03 I warned that the default target operating system for
jobs submitted to the Tool Labs grid would change from Precise to
Trusty [0]. The change is now live on Tool Labs (since
2016-10-26T16:48Z).

If you have problems with cron jobs or other grid jobs submitted with
jsub, please take a look at the Precise deprecation notes on Wikitech
[1]. Ideally you should try to fix your jobs to work on Trusty, but if
you need a bit more time there are instructions there for pinning your
job submissions to the remaining Precise hosts.
