Disable mirror.roelf.org
by Roelf Wichertjes 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Sadly i've got to stop my centos mirror... Although i'd like it if you just disable it but not remove it, in case i'd ever start it again. I'm doing this with pain in my heart. But else i get in trouble. There's no other way... But if you just disable it but don't remove it, i'd be happy. If it may once be started again, i'll let you guys know!

5.6 is coming closer
by Ralph Angenendt 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Hi, just a short announcement that you will be seeing 5.6 coming to your mirrors in a very short while. The directory should sync as not open to the outside world, there will be a bit switch when we feel that enough mirrors should have that release (meaning: We monitor mirror-status.centos.org) If you see anything out of the ordinary, please send a mail to the centos-mirror list. Regards, Ralph Angenendt

5.6 timedhosts does not detect/list our mirror
by Andrew Holland 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Just built a test box for 5.6 using our mirror, and upon running yum, I notice that our mirror is _not_ being detected as a possible mirror for this area. (Finland.) It shows up just fine for 5.5 boxes. Could that be fixed, please? Or is there something different we must do here? (Also, I've been asked if we could have the , removed from our listing - i.e. not 'Academica, OY' but instead 'Academica OY' as it does not need a comma.)

centos.eecs.wsu.edu going non-public
by Jim Kusznir 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Hi all: My department IT has just told me that we're no longer allowed to serve to off-campus users...please pull us from the official mirror list. We still will be mirroring for the 100-500 local centos users, so if you ever get a way to give different mirrors by IP, we'd love to be official mirror for our campus IPs. --Jim

.torrent files?
by Doug Granzow 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

I see the .torrent files have been added for 5.6, but I am getting an error from the tracker for the two x86_64 torrents ("Request download is not authorized..."). The i386 torrents I was able to download successfully. Is that the desired status for the moment? I assume that if I leave them active in my bittorrent client they will automatically start downloading once added to the tracker. I hope to be a high capacity seed for these torrents (in addition to being a tier 2 mirror)

Two noob questions
by Digimer 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Hi all, I've mirrored CentOS (http://centos.alteeve.com) initially to be a local mirror for our DC. I've been thinking about making it publicly available, but I was concerned about the load it might place on the server. I remember seeing somewhere an estimate on the bandwidth to expect, but I seem to fail at Google and can't find that again. So, first question; If I become a public mirror on a server with a 100Mbit connection, will my uplink likely become saturated? Second question; with regards to locking to prevent rsync calls from overstepping one another, what do most people do? The docs said to ask here. :) Cheers! -- Digimer E-Mail: digimer(a)alteeve.com AN!Whitepapers: http://alteeve.com Node Assassin: http://nodeassassin.org

Re: [CentOS-mirror] Two noob questions
by Nick Olsen 07 Apr '11

1. It could be. We run a mirror on a 100Mb/s connection and it CAN max it out. It doesn't all the time though. 2. Use shell locking when you run the script. Attached is what we use. Which grabs the mirror from mysnc, And then the dvd's from another mirror. ---------------------------------------- From: "Digimer" <linux(a)alteeve.com> Sent: Thursday, April 07, 2011 11:19 AM To: "Mailing list for CentOS mirrors." <centos-mirror(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-mirror] Two noob questions Hi all, I've mirrored CentOS (http://centos.alteeve.com) initially to be a local mirror for our DC.

Timestamp empty
by Jeff Sheltren 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

We have an empty timestamp file since a sync ~16+ hours ago. Looking at the mirror-status page, it looks like all mirrors that have updated recently also have an empty timestamp file. Could someone please correct it? Thanks, Jeff

There are quite a few mirrors that have not upgraded files in a while it would be nice to clean up all the broken mirrors on the list for the release of Centos 5.6. http://mirror-status.centos.org/
