Hi All,

I am trying to host ISO DVDs also of Centos. however none of the rsync mirrors are providing DVD access. How are you guys doing that.

Thanks Durga Prasad

We do a two step sync as follows: ::STEP 1 rsync -vaH --numeric-ids --filter='protect *DVD*iso' --filter='protect *torrent' --delete --delete-after --delay-updates --progress msync.centos.org::CentOS /mnt/tera2/centos ::STEP 2 rsync -vaH --numeric-ids --filter='include */' --filter='include *DVD*iso' --filter='include *torrent' --filter='exclude *' --progress mirrors3.kernel.org::centos /mnt/tera2/centos I think I mentioned this earlier on another thread no longer than 2 weeks ago. Regards HASSAN

Thanks, I remembered that - but I downloaded DVDs from other site through http and kept in the folder. but they got deleted in the next rsync run. Before investigating further, I felt there should be an easy way. --- sorry im too lazy :)

As an addendum to the line provided here:

mirrors1: Located in the United States mirrors2: Located in the United States mirrors3: Located in Amsterdam, NL mirrors4: Located in Umea, SE

Choose the one closest to you if your using rsync, otherwise just using mirrors.kernel.org will likely do the right thing.

For the record we already provide full rsync access and we provide the DVD isos, is there any particular reason to not just do your full sync from one of the kernel.org boxes?

Dear Mr. Prasad

I am really surprised to see you are asking same query twice within 2 or 3 weeks!

Thanks goes to Mr. Hassan. The rsync option bellow:

--filter='protect *DVD*iso' --filter='protect *torrent'

Will protect deleting DVD's from your mirror. As I can remember, Mr. Hassan give this solutions just before 2 or 3 weeks ago, on a thread which was between 3 person, first You, Second Mr. Hassan, And 3rd is Me.

Please study before posting any query. CentOS Mirror Mailing list mirror Archive has a lot of information. Other then that Google is there to help you. Here in this list a lot of persons who are really busy and their time is too expensive. Please show your responsibility. Nobody here is / will spoon feed you.

As a Mirror Maintainer you should have basic level of technical knowledge and common sense. Hope everyone, including me will use common sense before sending any email on list.

With Best Regards & Eid Mubarak (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_Mubarak) to ALL

To stop rsync from delete them, you need those filter rules as in my example. Regards HASSAN
