New Irish Mirror
by Paul Kelly :: Blacknight 24 Mar '08

24 Mar '08

Hi there, We're considering a new public Mirror in .ie as I can see from the mirror list there is only 1, HEAnet which had a hiccup last week. So it makes sense to have at least 1 other in Ireland. Our mirror will be in Dublin. A few questions if I may? 1) What's the total mirror size? Are there any growth graphs over the past 36 months or similar? 2) What amounts of bandwidth do mirrors normally consume?, 10,20,30-100mbit/s etc? 3) Are there scripts for managing the CentOS distribution other than a simple rsync cronjob? 4) How often should we update it? 5) Are there any gotchas we should be aware of? Anything else we should be aware of? :) Thanks, Paul Paul Kelly Technical Director Blacknight Internet Solutions ltd Hosting, Colocation, Dedicated servers IP Transit Services Tel: +353 (0) 59 9183072 Lo-call: 1850 929 929 DDI: +353 (0) 59 9183091 e-mail: paul(a)blacknight.ie web: http://www.blacknight.ie Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd, Unit 12A,Barrowside Business Park, Sleaty Road, Graiguecullen, Carlow, Ireland Company No.: 370845

Hi, following a change to new hardware, centos.zanker.org is now a full mirror - all releases, all architectures. I won't be doing direct DVD downloads just yet, but all CD isos are mirrored. Would you please update your records/scripts to reflect this? Thanks in advance, Mike

New Mirror Setup Questions
by Maeltor 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

I've setup a new mirror (almost finished) but I have a few questions. I am running the first sync as a single command right now, sync'ed weekly until I get a few questions answered. Currently, my command is: rsync -aqzH --delete --delay-updates us-msync.centos.org::CentOS /var/ www/centos I plan on just allowing http for now, and I'm connected via multi- homed DS3's so bandwidth is not a HUGE problem. I am not limited but might have to if the link becomes very heavily used. My questions are: If I am to sync 2-4 times a day, how do I setup lock files in a script? Right now i'm just using a single command (listed above). I assume you will most likely tell me to connect to a Tier 1 server to sync from instead of a master server right? Secondly, if I were to say drop down to only version 5, what is the best way to do that as well? Thanks, Josh
