Hello,
We will be upgrading the storage on our mirror server and would like to start mirroring the CentOS dvd iso's. Could someone please direct me to instructions on how to get rsync to pull down the dvd images? Your help is appreciated.

Just find one of the mirrors that has the DVD images and pull from them.
Feel free to pull from mirror.chpc.utah.edu (the path is rsync://mirror.chpc.utah.edu/CentOS-incdvd)

The CentOS folks have to approve you for downloading the DVD ISOs directly from them, and then there's a super secret rsync address you use, that I think is IP restricted. Talk to one of the folks at CentOS.
Alternatively, you can download via rsync from one of the mirrors that offers rsync access and has the DVD ISOs. I think the kernel.org guys have the ISOs, but you need to talk to them to get access. I mention them cause they probably have the fattest (and phattest) pipes of us all.
Else, just visit http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13 and find someone who offers Rsync and dvd isos.

Did you get the DVD isos from an off-site mirror? If not, let me know and I can add your site to the authorized to download DVDs ... then you will be able to sync from dvd-msync.centos.org.
