Private mirror help

Hello, I have 8 servers which run CentOS 3. I'd like to rsync the updates to a local server so I don't have to bog down the mirrors. What is the best way to just sync the RPMs for the latest release? Thanks, Matthew Richardson Transim Technology

Mirror Changes - Important
by Lance Davis 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

Due to the split of mirrors with cAos , it will be necessary for mirrors to make some changes to the way that they mirror the CentOS tree, as moving forward it will no longer be a part of the caosity tree. Firstly mirrors need to decide whether they are mirroring CentOS or cAos or both. They are distinct operating systems, CentOS is a rebuild of Enterprise Linux , whereas cAos is an rpm based distribution in its own right. For more information see www.centos.org or caos.caosity.org At present both trees are mirrored with a single rsync of mirror.caosity.org::cAos - moving forward two rsyncs will be needed :- mirror.caosity.org::caosity that will get the caos tree and msync.centos.org::CentOS that will get the CentOS tree Please note that at present CentOS will be listed and stored within the cAos tree, this should not be the case in the future - CentOS should never be stored or listed as a part of cAos or caosity. Mirror Changes -------------- In order to achieve the changes required with minimum download bandwidth the following steps should be carried out. (Note that individual circumstances may vary - if in doubt do nothing and ask) . 1. Stop cron based rsync job from syncing 2. Move the CentOS tree to its new location, which should be at the root of the publically served tree. This can either be achieved with 'mv' or if you want a 2nd chance at it 'cp -al' which will create a hardlinked copy of the tree (as long as it is on the same partition) eg with directory structure /pub /pub/caos /pub/caos/centos cp -al /pub/caos/centos /pub/ or mv /pub/caos/centos /pub to end up with /pub/ /pub/caos /pub/centos (and /pub/caos/centos/ if using cp -al) 3. Create a new rsync cron job to sync the CentOS tree (if required) . This should be something like :- rsync -aqzH --delete msync.centos.org::CentOS /pub/ *** note the change to msync.centos.org *** mirror.centos.org is deprecated for rsync use - to allow us to use different servers for yum mirrors. please use rsync -anvzH --delete msync.centos.org::CentOS /pub/ first to test that the command will do the right thing ('n' is dry run and will just show what wil be transferred - which in theory should be very little - if it says 40 GB + then the command is wrong !!) Note that due to the way that rsync works any updates will only be written to this new tree and not the hardlinked tree left behind if using cp -al above ( that can be deleted once you are happy with the new location working). 4. Create a new rsync cron job to sync the cAos tree (if required). This should be something like :- rsync -aqzH --delete mirror.caosity.org::caosity /pub/ *** note the change to ::caosity - ::cAos will still sync both trees for mirrors that havent restructured yet. *** This will also delete the CentOS tree left underneath the caos tree above. You should now have both trees in the correct places. 5. Please email the list to say that you have restructured your mirror and what the new urls will be for public use. We will update the databases to reflect these new locations. 6. It is not necessary to mirror all of centos if you do not wish to - eg you can choose whether to carry 2.1 , 3.3, 3.4, 4.0 - but please note in the email any trees that you will not be carrying and we will note that in the database. 7. In the very near future we will be restricting access to msync.centos.org to publically listed mirrors only - we have to establiush a way for new mirrors to sync first though. 8. We will be tracking which mirrors have/havent restructured and will contact individual mirrors accordingly. There is now an irc channel - #centos-mirror on irc.freenode.net where mirroring discussions may be held. Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

Heads up - CentOS 4.1 is almost here
by Karanbir Singh 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

Hi guys, Just a quick note of advance(!) notice : CentOS 4.1 tree is starting to be populated with the IA64 branch. i386 and x86_64 will start shortly and complete in 72 to 96 hrs times. We are looking at an approximate size increase of 4 to 5 GB for the /centos/4/ tree. We will try and ensure there is a lag, from the time the pkgs are uploaded, to the Announcement itself, allowing the mirrors to catch up. To save on mirror space, duplicate packages in 4.1 will be hardlinked against pkgs in 4.0 ( please check your rsync lines, make sure there is an -H option there ). Further, once the 4.1 iso's are available on the mirrors, iso's for 4.0 will be removed from the mirrors right away. They will still be available on BitTorrent for an over-lap period of 14 days, should anyone need them. Once this 14 day over-lap is over, the entire 4.0 tree will be removed from the mirrors and /centos/4/ will be pointing at /centos/4.1/ Thank you all, once again, for hosting mirrors for the CentOS Project. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ GnuPG Public Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

As you will have read in a recent post, the CentOS mirror system is separating from cAos so as to be an independent project in its own right. There will be more information regarding how to change the mirror setup and where to sync from shortly, however for now we are creating new mailing lists. If you were subscribed to the caos-mirror mailing list then you will jave been subscribed to this list automatically. (If not - apologies). The options you subscribed with should be maintained - although your password will have changed. If you want to know the password that has been set in order to login and change options then you can have it emailled to you here :- http://lists.centos.org/mailman/options/centos-mirror Regards Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

Wrong permissions on master mirror
by Mihai Maties 17 May '05

17 May '05

The /3.4/os/s390x/ directory includes a lot of subdirectories that do not have write permission for the owner. For example: # rsync msync.centos.org::CentOS/3.4/os/s390x/ [...snip...] dr-xr-xr-x 4096 2005/05/15 21:01:50 RedHat [...snip...] Of course that rsync fails creating some symlinks in that directory if it runs as an unpriviledged user. Running rsync as root is not an acceptable workaround. Mihai -- This message was scanned for spam and viruses by BitDefender. For more information please visit http://linux.bitdefender.com/

Mirror Symlinks?
by Shawn M. Jones 16 May '05

16 May '05

Hi all, I run the LittleProjects.org mirror. To ensure that the mirrors are running properly I have the cron job send me an email after each run (every 4 hours). Most of the time I check the message date and note that it is on schedule. About once a day I look at the contents to see if anything new has come up. Recently I noticed rsync had the following output: <rsync output> 2.1/ 2.1/extras/ 2.1/extras/HEADER.html -> /home/centos/centos/HEADER.html 2.1/extras/HEADER.images -> /home/centos/centos/HEADER.images 2.1/extras/SRPMS/ 2.1/extras/SRPMS/HEADER.html -> /home/centos/centos/HEADER.html 2.1/extras/SRPMS/HEADER.images -> /home/centos/centos/HEADER.images </rsync output> My script also runs chown (and selinux's chcon) after the rsync so that the files have the correct permissions/types. If I hadn't seen these errors I wouldn't have thought to look at the text above: <chown errors> /bin/chown: changing ownership of `/misc/mirrors/centos.org/2.1/extras/SRPMS/HEADER.html': No such file or directory /bin/chown: changing ownership of `/misc/mirrors/centos.org/2.1/extras/SRPMS/HEADER.images': No such file or directory /bin/chown: changing ownership of `/misc/mirrors/centos.org/2.1/extras/headers/HEADER.html': No such file or directory /bin/chown: changing ownership of `/misc/mirrors/centos.org/2.1/extras/headers/HEADER.images': No such file or directory </chown errors> I have no '/home/centos/centos' directory for these symlinks to point to. They are all over the place. Was this a momentary mistake? Or, am I just running rsync with the wrong options? My rsync command is /usr/bin/rsync -avzH --delete us-msync.centos.org::CentOS /misc/mirrors/centos.org I believe I can change the rsync options to copy the files the links point to, rather than preserving the links. Essentially, I'll remove the -a option and replace it with its useful constituent options. Any suggestions? Sincerely, Shawn M. Jones

New mirror setup
by ago＠lsc.hu 16 May '05

16 May '05

hi all, as I want to support CentOS as I'm able to I started to sync to eu-msync.centos.org. But I only see 2.1 and 3.4 branches. What about 4.0? I think the biggest hype is about it :-) As the sync finishes I will announce the final mirror link. It's located at Hungarian BiX (Budapst Internet Exchange), there are two bandwith limits: 100MBit/sec in Hungary and 4MBit/sec to all other countries. So it's useful to Hungarian users but who knows maybe to others too. bye, Ago
