Slave class specific instructions
So ... off the bat ... RelEng can perform reimages directly. Please only raise a bug to ask RelOps to do it, if the following instructions are not sufficient enough. And in that case, please ask Rel Ops the procedure, so we can update this doc.

Other / if all else fails
If all else fails, and the above instructions do not help you:
- make sure the slave is disabled in slavealloc
- File a bug to reimage the machine, mark it as blocking the slave's problem tracking bug.
- after being re-imaged, do another check to make sure the machine is in a good shape (e.g it's accessible, has a proper resolution, etc)
- finally, re-enable it in slavealloc and reboot it.
