<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We've been noticing this lately on our mirrors too and we sync upstream to CentOS's primary mirrors.

I suspect there might be an issue with one or more of the upstream mirrors not being in sync sometimes. I wonder if this is related to the other thread I started regarding <a href="http://centosv4.centos.org">centosv4.centos.org</a> being slow for us.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Aug 7, 2020 at 6:36 AM Fabian Arrotin <<a href="mailto:arrfab@centos.org">arrfab@centos.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">On 30/07/2020 03:05, Mason Schmitt wrote:<br>

Which basically checks the main root of the content dir and then<br>
displays that page.<br>
Not shown on that page is the result of the crawler process *then* only<br>
verifying *all* repositories metadata and comparing with local cache<br>
<br>
Normally , assuming that you don't have other internal caching<br>
somewhere, it should get the list of validated (and still to be<br>
considered current) mirrors.<br>
