RFC on public centos mirrors
by Tru Huynh 12 Jun '08

12 Jun '08

Hi, There is now close to 200 public CentOS mirrors listed at http://mirror-status.centos.org/. Only a handfull of them is late/down at any given time so I would like to thank you all for your support and efforts on behalf of the CentOS team and the silent users. Here is the current situation and some proposition to further improve it. - centos.org servers are donated to the project. We don't control the disk size not the bandwith available on these servers. - regular centos mirroring is fine - recent requests for extending the mirror with the dvd isos have been delayed due to limitations on centos.org side(bandwith/resources). - limited number of rsync servers allowed to reach the centos + dvd iso (ACL on the centos.org servers) - msync.centos.org are round-robin (eu/us) and need time to sync together from a "master" server. - no ACL on the regular centos tree (~110 GB for all versions/all arches) <6G 2.1 31G 3.9 47G 4.6 28G 5.1 - the separation between Tier1/2/3 has not been written down (except for bandwith availability). Requirements for CentOS public mirror: - request for no bandwith limitation (if you need to throttle, we can just remove your mirror from the mirrorlist generation and leave it on the main list). - round-robin for CentOS clients (http/ftp) via geo-ip from http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo= RFC for possible future direction: rational: several public servers have more bandwith than the centos.org machines, by serving more files from the big pipes, we reduce the bottleneck for everyone. - dvd mirror (Tier 1) are the only one allowed to reach the master dvd repository - other public dvd mirror are re-directed to the dvd Tier 1 - leave it like that (no additional public dvd serveri: not satisfying...) jidgo: feedback from debian mirror maintainer - rational: reduce the bandwith/time needed for the initial sync for each point release * drawback: the burden to generate the so goes to the public mirror willing to use jidgo * drawback: another target needed (hardlinked) for mirror who don't want/can't use jidgo * jidgo receipe needed for each iso (how easy/hard is it to work with?) - doing it the otherway round? iso -> os/$arch tree Best regards, Tru PS: 5.2 is in QA now -- Tru Huynh (mirrors, CentOS-3 i386/x86_64 Package Maintenance) http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xBEFA581B

DVD access
by Bob Pierce 27 May '08

27 May '08

We have recently upgraded the server hosting our mirror, and we would like to mirror the DVD .iso files. I know I have asked before, but I may have requested access from the wrong IP. I just tried again today, and msync-dvd.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd gives me an error of "Unknown module 'CentOS-incdvd'" Can you please provide access from 216.36.132.162 for centos.westmancom.com Thanks for your help with this. -- Bob Pierce Network Analyst Westman Communications Group pierceb(a)westmancom.com
