Subject: Re: [CentOS-mirror] msync.centos.org issues from Australia Hi Seamus, Fair point in regards to the centose7.centos.org A Record. Perhaps you could use it until potential issues with msync.centos.org have been resolved */subtle nudge to Fabian to investigate!* ? Regards, Matthew.

No other region appears to be experiencing these issues. It seems either msync.centos.org is broken for Australian ISP's (seems the geo-load balancing is a bit sporadic) or something else is going on. When I query pdns1/2/3.centos.org for msync.centos.org I get an array of responses, some local and some international 103.18.205.7 199.187.126.92 124.217.252.175 216.172.56.29 Not exactly sure what is going on here, but something isn't right.. - Seamus From: centos-mirror-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-mirror-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Matthew Taylor Sent: Friday, 3 July 2015 5:23 PM To: centos-mirror at centos.org Subject: Re: [CentOS-mirror] msync.centos.org issues from Australia Hi all, Interesting... We (centos.mirror.digitalpacific.com.au, AS55803, 101.0.101.66) pull all of our CentOS content from centose7.centos.org (which resolves to 103.18.205.7), and we've had no problems at all. Perhaps it may be related to msync.centos.org not redirecting the requests correctly? For starters, I receive an A Record for a msync node not even local to AU: [root at mirror ~]# dig @pdns1.centos.org msync.centos.org +short 124.217.252.175 ^ AS45839, Malaysia.

I see it is geo-load balanced to various places around the world, but in particular in Australia we are (in many cases) sent to 103.18.205.7 - 7-205-18-103.static.glovine.com.au That's all well and good, but a quick look at http://mirror-status.centos.org/ reveals quite a few of the Australian mirrors have been all over the place over the last few weeks, which would somewhat suggest something is up with this mirror source? Any clues?
