new mirror at http://mirror.tamu.edu/centos/
by Mark Nipper 31 Oct '05

31 Oct '05

Our server is currently rsyncing against us-msync.centos.org at 0300/1500 CST6CDT. Please let me know if we need to change that. The only valid access method is currently via http. We might consider rsync in the future, but I'll let you know if that changes. The server is located in College Station, Texas, USA. We are connected with the Internet via an OC-12 and Internet2 via an OC-3. The server itself is only on 100Mbit ethernet though, so that will be the bottleneck. And finally, the sponsoring organization should probably be "Texas A&M University" with a URL of http://www.tamu.edu/.

Hey, noticed a few problems with the mirror. The sponsor name is Neoservers LLC, forgot the LLC. Also, you got the mirror url wrong. The mirror is http://centos.neoservers.com/ You linked directly to our website.

I shall. I just realized that this makes a local up2date mirror as well. I have 10 CentOS servers, so that will cut down on our bandwidth as well. Big plus there.

Hey all. I just finished the initial sync to a mirror I've setup. After awhile, I will decide whether or not to keep the mirror running. I want to see how much bandwidth it will use first.

If I permanently maintain it, I'll offer FTP and possible RSYNC access.

Incorrect permissions on mirrors
by Mihai Maties 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

I really can't believe this, am I the only one that mirrors CentOS content using an unpriviledged user instead of root (and notices this) ? This is not the first time something like this happens and probably it won't be the last if you do not make something about it. Yes, I know you are copying those files from a read-only media but this is not an excuse for not setting the "writable" permission later. <--- cut here ---> rsync msync.centos.org::CentOS/3.6/os/s390x/images/ [...] dr-xr-xr-x 4096 2005/10/03 10:27:56 . lrwxr-xr-x 23 2005/10/12 21:21:33 HEADER.html lrwxr-xr-x 25 2005/10/12 21:21:33 HEADER.images -r--r--r-- 667 2005/10/03 12:03:26 TRANS.TBL -r--r--r-- 44 2005/10/03 10:27:56 generic.prm -r--r--r-- 5913337 2005/10/03 10:27:53 initrd.img -r-xr-xr-x 4046592 2005/10/03 10:27:56 kernel.img </--- cut here ---> Mihai

CentOS-4.2 release and msync.centos.org mirrors
by Johnny Hughes 16 Oct '05

16 Oct '05

All, We are going to be securing rsync on the msync (also us-msync and eu- msync) mirrors to allow us to push the CentOS-4.2 tree to all the mirrors and get them up and running. This will probably happen about 2 hours from now. We are trying this method to minimize the time that mirrors are out of date with unusable yum configurations. Also, if you upgrade your rsync on your mirror to > 2.6.4 (you can get that from dag's repo) then you can use the "--delay-updates" option to minimize the time your mirror has unusable yum metadata. As soon as all the servers are back on line, I will make an announcement on this list again. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

If you are looking to mirror the entire CentOS Public Mirror you need about 60 Gigs of storage, The requirements jump a bit when there is a new release since we will have both tree's for a few days ( eg. 4.1 and 4.2 are both live at the moment ), we will take 4.1 off soon. There are somethings that we dont distribute out to public mirrors, purely for the sake of disk space usage. This includes : Beta / Testing versions of the distro's ( http://beta.centos.org ), debuginfo and deprecated pkgs + tree's ( http://vault.centos.org) and we also dont distribute DVD .iso images out ( only available via bittorrent ) - K

Please permanently remove LittleProjects.org from the Mirrors List
by Shawn M. Jones 14 Oct '05

14 Oct '05

Hi all, Unfortunately, as a private web server renter, due to disk space constraints I can not afford to support a CentOS mirror any longer. Thanks for the support and the experience. I'll look for other ways that I can help out CentOS. It's been a fun ride. Sincerely, Shawn M. Jones

Disk Space Constraints
by Shawn M. Jones 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Due to the increase in space that CentOS is taking up, I've had to split the mirror across two hard drives. Any suggestions on how I would structure the rsync commands to facilitate this? Thanks, Shawn M. Jones

New Releases
by Karanbir Singh 10 Oct '05

10 Oct '05

Hi guys, CentOS 4.2 will be released in the next couple of days time, this is just a heads up - the following tree's will be released initially: i386 x86_64 ia64 s390 s390(x) Alpha Source Code ( SRPMS ) There will be a short lag ( 7 days ) before the 4.1 tree is removed completely, so you might want to make sure there is enough space on the mirrors to handle the extra pkgs. Also, ensure that you are running rsync with the -H option so hardlinks are handled properly. - K -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq
