I am trying to establish a mirror, and when I execute the rsync command, it only creates the directories and selected files. It does not download the entire iso collection or repo files.
And which rsync command?

The one with --exclude "isos" ?

I have been using this one:
*rsync -aqzH --delete msync.centos.org::CentOS **/path/to/local/mirror/root*
If I can, I want to mirror:
mirror.optus.net/centos
as it is nearer my mirror server and the internet connection for the server is through Optus (in Sydney, AU).

A few notes: the -z should not do much since most files are compressed... You could save some bandwidth by using -P or --partial in case of an interruption. And maybe -l to keep symlinks. Replace -q with -v to see what is going on. Use -n to test more quickly. mirror.optus.net does not seem to offer rsync...
