Forgive me for being somewhat green here
I have a few more questions. Does this script look reasonable? Is
there anything I need to adjust to use the lock files you posted?
I want to restrict my mirror to Ver 5 to save on space and bandwidth
(and since realistically it probably won't be used by many people
other than me).
Please have a look at this script:
#!/bin/sh
# please adjust
lock=~/`basename ${0}`.lock
if [ -f ${lock} ]; then
# This ensure script didn't die w/o removing lock
# Ex: power failure
[ -d /proc/`cat ${lock}` ] && exit 0
fi
clean () {
rm -fr ${lock}
}
trap clean 0
rsync="/usr/bin/rsync -aqHz --delete --delay-updates"
# this should be auto-selected, but the centos mirror script doesn't
# support selection by a specific protocol (i.e., rsync)
#mirror=mirror.stanford.edu::mirrors/centos
#mirror=centos.cs.wisc.edu::centos
#mirror=mirrors.usc.edu::centos
mirror=us-msync.centos.org::CentOS
ver=5
archlist="i386 x86_64"
baselist="os updates"
local=/var/www/centos
for arch in $archlist
do
for base in $baselist
do
remote=$mirror/$ver/$base/$arch/
$rsync $remote $local/$ver/$base/$arch/
done
done
