msync-dvd gone missing?
by J.H. 26 Feb '10

26 Feb '10

Hey all, Got an e-mail this morning from someone who happened to notice that my Centos tree was a bit out of date. Doing some digging it looks like the remote server just isn't answering anymore: --- BEGIN RSYNC --- Wed Feb 24 13:43:01 UTC 2010 rsync: failed to connect to centosk3.centos.org: Connection timed out (110) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(124) [receiver=3.0.6] --- END RSYNC --- Wed Feb 24 13:46:10 UTC 2010 However I'm not explicitly connecting to centosk3 I'm using msync-dvd.centos.org, which in turns seems to resolve as follows: # nslookup msync-dvd.centos.org Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: msync-dvd.centos.org Address: 67.220.193.10 The issue seems to have started on or around Sat Feb 20 05:43:01 UTC 2010 as that's the first sync recently that started failing to connect. This may have already been fixed though as literally the rsync that happened in the middle of writing this seems to have changed to z3 instead of k3 and that went through. Just a heads up in that case. - John 'Warthog9' Hawley

ANN: withlock - reliable & easy locking for cron jobs
by Peter Pöml 22 Feb '10

22 Feb '10

Hi, [Apologies to those of you who received this mail more than once, due to crossposting to different forums in order to reach most relevant people] This is a one-time post to announce the creation of "withlock" - a locking wrapper script to make sure that some program isn't run more than once. It is ideal to prevent periodic jobs spawned by cron from stacking up. The locks created are valid only while the wrapper is running, and thus will *never* require additional cleanup, even after a reboot. This makes the wrapper safe and easy to use, and much better than implementing half-hearted locking within scripts. Usage is simple. Instead of your command CMD ARGS... you simply use withlock LOCKFILE CMD ARGS... If you are a mirror admin, there is a 99.9% chance that you might want to use this locking wrapper. Likely you ran into the situation where a script was (unexpectedly...) not finished before it was started another time; and/or you actually hacked some kind of locking into a script to prevent that from happening. Since I suffered the same situation for some years, I looked around for solutions, and since I couldn't find one, I finally took the time to create one. The resulting wrapper is used in production since summer 2009, and proved to work reliably. Put the wrapper around all your cron jobs and be happy :-) Use cases are to be found not only in mirroring, but that's where I come from, so I know that this will be useful for you guys. Home page: http://code.google.com/p/withlock/ Features: - locks that never need a cleanup, whatever happens - can wait a defined time for a lock to become "free" - disallows lock files in unsafe locations (to prevent symlink attacks) - easily installed (it's just one file), highly portable Requirements: - Python 2.4 or newer - lots of platforms are supported (see list on home page) For more information, please come to http://code.google.com/p/withlock/ . Thanks, Peter

I'm noticing a speed problem with the server here: 67.212.81.83 (Off the msync list) that this server has been going at an endless 1~KB/s. Maybe there is an issue with that server? This has been going on since this morning. :( -- Kate QuadraNet, Inc 530 W 6th Street #901 Los Angeles, CA 90014
