centos needs around 100gb give or take depending on active releases etc

if your going to mirror multiple distros depending on what you end up mirroring you probably will need 2-4TB or beyond as some distro mirrors are nearly a TB each!

Hi All,

I was talking to the CEO of our datacentre and he wants to setup a mirror server for several linux distro's. And I've convinced him to start with CentOS :)

He is going to buy a new server for mirror site and speedtesting. It will have a 10gbit uplink and the datacentre has a good network.

But can someone tell me how much disk space is recommended?

With kind regards, Robert

Hello, I just checked my server and it says it's only using 52 gigs of space, but I believe that during release it can get close to 150, so you may want to allow enough space for that to happen. On Feb 11, 2014 7:30 AM, "Robert Verspuy" robert@exa.nl wrote:
