Karabir suggested we start getting together a list of steps that need
completion to deliver an IPv6-preferenced or IPv6-only list of mirrors
for IPv6-only clients using CentOS. Here's what I've got so far. Feel
free to add to it:
Steps are in order of priority:
- Establish at least two authoritative name servers for centos.org with
v6 IPs.
- Determine if centos.org registrar supports v6 glue, transfer to a
registrar that supports it if needed, then add the glue.
- Augment the current mirror database with a field for IPv6 support and
IPv4 support, filling in IPv4 as enabled for all existing mirrors.
- Build a list of centos mirrors which have AAAA records and/or consult
with mirror admins to identify the mirrors which are prepared to provide
preferred IPv6 connectivity to IPv6 clients.
- Prepare a separate monitoring system for IPv6 content to confirm that
mirrors are serving the content correctly over both v4 and v6.
- Modify the mirror list on mirrorlist.centos.org to provide IPv6
mirrors with a higher priority than IPv4 mirrors when the client
accesses it via its AAAA address rather than A.
- Add AAAA for mirrorlist.centos.org
Thoughts?

Hello,
We are sync'ing from msync-dvd.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd/ yet we are
missing the "minimal" ISOs which seem to be present on other mirrors.
Please advise.
The mirror will be offline during Monday 8 of August, the (old P4)
mirror server is being replaced by a new one.
The new server is already synced with the old one, so no big peak of
download on eu-mysnc to be expected
Cheers,

Hello all,
due to an air conditionnig outage, the italian mirrors at
cis.uniroma2.it and at ftp.uniroma2.it have to be switched off
for the next few days.
My apologies, Silio d'Angelo.
Hello all,
Sorry for the off-topic question.
Is there any rpmfusion mirror in Vietnam?
rpmfusion[1] is a repository of add-on packages for Fedora, Redhat and
its derivatives like CentOS or Scientific Linux.
In other words, rpm-based distro users need them.

Mirror Admins,
CentOSG5 removed my entire CentOS archive due to what looks like a faulty disk or other issue.

msync.CentOS.org rsync service (centosg5)
---------------------------------------
This service is intended for the sole use of the CentOS worldwide mirror network
to synchronize mirrors.
Unless you are running or intending to run a listed public CentOS mirror
use a mirror listed at http://www.CentOS.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13
If you intend to populate a mirror for public use please read the
notes at :- http://www.CentOS.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=15
If you do use this service then it is implied that you are providing a
mirror for public use and giving us authority to publicise such mirror.
rsync: readdir("/6.0/." (in CentOS)): Input/output error (5)

Should I not be using --delete in my sync for cases like this ?

Hi,
I'm sending this again now that our mirror has been stable for a few
weeks after having some initial problems with CentOS 6.
I would like to get my mirror added to the list.
HTTP: http://mirrors.loosefoot.com/centos/
FTP: ftp://mirrors.loosefoot.com/centos/
RSYNC: rsync://mirrors.loosefoot.com/centos/
Location: Colorado, US
Speed: 1Gbps (AS40092)
Sponsoring Org: LFC Hosting (http://www.lfchosting.com)
Contact Person: Jeff Fisher (jeff(a)lfchosting.com)
The mirror is sync'd 4 times daily against msync.centos.org and is a
complete copy with nothing excluded.
Also, can someone remove the other Tier 1 mirror located in Colorado
(OpenReaction) as it appears that they are out of business and the
mirror has been down for quite some time.
After reading,
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=30, I thought
this list is auto-generated based on http://mirror-status.centos.org/;
however, the mirror I referenced before has not been up for 317 days.
Thanks,
Jeff
