Selective RSync
by Jim Zimmerman 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Hi, To save bandwidth, I'm setting up a local repository/mirror from which our CentOS 4 farm will pull its updates. Since we are using only the x86 architecture, I'd also like to save space by not downloading and storing anything that isn't required for the x86 architecture. Does anyone have any experience or advice on how best to configure rsync to skip the parts of the mirror that aren't necessary for the x86 architecture? Thanks, Jim Zimmerman

Beta DVD access
by Olivier Thauvin 05 Apr '07

05 Apr '07

Hi dear mirrors admin One of colleague want to test the beta of Centos 5 using DVD iso. Unfortunatelly at our university (where is located distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr, BTW: your dns work fine :), we cannot use peer to peer software, included bittorent, so we cannot get DVD iso. Would it be possible to have iso availlable through ftp or http or rsync. If need I can host them on distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr. Regards.

Actually I just found your email from several months ago. It appears as though you are rsyncing 2 times daily. I suggest rsyncing more frequently (at least 4 times daily) to keep your mirror from showing up as out of date. If the time stamp files are too old (which are updated during the rsync) then when the mirmon script runs it will show that your mirror is out of date. The mirmon script runs hourly on :40. -- Matthew Martz CentOS Mirror Admin mdmartz(a)gflug.net

Resolving "no time" on status page
by Sadiq Sutherland 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Hi, For mirror.nyi.net we are getting status of "no time" under the last stat column on the status page. It occasionally succeeds but is "no time" most of the time. I've been trying to troubleshoot this but I'm running out of ideas. Mirror is up to date and time stamps look okay. We have lots of available bandwidth. Any ideas what could be causing this? thanks

Mirroring Release of CentOS 5 Beta
by Lance Davis 25 Mar '07

25 Mar '07

In preparation for the public release of CentOS 5 beta, we would like to expand the number of mirror servers that have the beta as we expect it to be a popular download. So if any mirrors - especially ones with large bandwidth - can agree to the following please let us know :- 1. set up an apache virtual host as beta.centos.or 2. set up rsync for beta.cenros.org with targets we specify This will make it easy for us to use GeoIP based dns system to give out mirrors. 3. agree to sync regularily and only carry the latest beta download tree Because we dont want broken stuff too widely distributed 4. agree to remove the beta stuff when the beta test is over Thanks Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

Beta Site Up
by Richard Ford 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

G'Day All, centos-beta.candishosting.com.cn is up ready to server the isolated penguin lovers of the middle kingdom. I am doing a sync now to make sure it is all up to date (and activating RSYNC as well). Do I need to do anything else? Clear, concise, succinct answers preferred. Cheers, RF.

Question Regarding beta DNS
by Kevin M Stange 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Is the DNS for the beta geographically based? I find that when I access the mirror from our own network, I seem to be directed to a random beta mirror in the US rather than our own, which is most certainly closest. -- Kevin Stange Chief Technology Officer Steadfast Networks http://www.steadfast.net kevin(a)steadfast.net Phone: 312-602-2689 ext. 203 | Fax: 312-602-2688 | Cell: 312-320-5867
