Hi Mirrors Admins,
As you probably know, CentOS 6.6 is now being built/produced. So expect to see some traffic when it will be released - probably early next week - (when the whole tree/isos will land on your mirror, and when people will then start downloading/rsyncing from your mirror).
Just to let you know also that (to be confirmed though) expected size is ~26Gb. After some time we'll remove the 6.5 folder and will archive it to vault.centos.org, so you'll get back that space.
If you have questions, feel free to discuss that on the centos-mirror list, or in #centos-mirror, on irc.freenode.net
Kind Regards, - --

Hi Mirrors Admins,

A kind reminder for all the mirror admins out there -- please make sure your rsync script uses the -H flag to preserve hardlinks. I wrote about this during 5.10's release, archived here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-mirror/2013-October/007408.html
In addition to the three points raised in that message, preserving hard links also helps everyone who is syncing from your mirror, in case you provide rsync service at your mirror.
If you have not previously used the -H flag, rsync will automatically take care of the duplicate files and remove the extra ones the next time you sync with your updated rsync command line.

So the 6.6 tree should be available now via msync, release announcement likely in about 24 hours.
And yes, you will want to use -H in your rsync commands as almost everything in the 6.6 tree that is an RPM is also in 6.5/CR, and the ISOs are the only new things.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
