When trying to sync form us-msync.centos.org today, twice we have gotten
errors about the max connections being reached. Are there peak times
for the master servers that we might be able to avoid when pulling our
updates? Better yet, is there a graph or any other automatically
updated means whereby we can check the connection count's or bandwidth
usage of the main servers so that any admins running a CentOS mirror can
look at and figure out for ourselves when to best mirror the repos?
I'm getting the following error when I try to get updates.
@ERROR: max connections (40) reached -- try again later

We have been mirroring CentOS for a while now, but would like to include
the DVD isos. We have plenty of connectivity and space. Can someone
please let me know what we need to do in order to get these DVD images
as well?
Thanks,
Patrick

I have browsed the mailing list for the answer, but have not found an
official answer. I have configured a machine to be a public mirror and I
want to host DVD isos along with everything else. I have started
rsync'ing from msync.centos.org::CentOS, but I don't get DVD isos. I am
using the following command:
#rsync -aqzH --delay-updates --delete msync.centos.org::CentOS
/xraid1/web/mirror/centos/
To which server should I connect and what should the command look like
in order to get the DVD isos? I have seen postings defining it like this:
<server>::CentOS-incdvd
but it didn't seem to work with msync.centos.org. Am I doing something
wrong? If I need permission, the IP address of the server is 141.161.54.167.
Thanks for your help.

Could you please update the list of mirrors to add 'yes' to SWITCHmirror
(mirror.switch.ch) in the 'Direct DVD Downloads' column?
BTW: Perhaps you could add some text on the 'CentOS Mirroring HowTo'
page on why DVDs are not currently available from the masters. I had to
dig into the mail archive to find the answer.
A suggestion for the upcoming multi-tier mirroring system: Make DVD the
default and make the many CDs (1ofX) optional. Perhaps to exclude one or
the other easily, place them in uniquely named separate subdirectories.
Many thanks,
Thomas

Hello All,
I setup a mirror on my server at: http://designwaveaudio.com/centos.
As of now it is only HTTP, but other protocols will be added soon,
hopefully. My current monthly bandwidth is: 6517 GB, it syncs every 8
hours and my location is: Lancaster, PA, USA. This mirror is
sponsored by Design Wave Audio (http://designwaveaudio.com) Thanks!

Hi,
I run the mirrors.combinetworks.com mirror, and just noticed when going
to http://mirror-status.centos.org that my mirror is not in the list. I
had noticed that the mirror server had not been getting very much
traffic. Could that be the cause? Are peoples yum instances etc.
possibly not using my mirror because of that?
Either way if you could add me into the mirror status list that would be
great.
Cheers,
Phil Evans.
Hi List,
Any idea how long it takes to get in the list of the public mirrors ?
http://centos.weepee.org and ready to rumble .... (http access only)
We would also like to mirror the DVD images ... but i digged the list
and it seems we need special access for such ... adding us to that
list would be most appriciated,
regards,
