[CentOS-mirror] Duplicate mirror on list

Hi All,


I have noticed that there are are 2 duplicate mirrors, different hostnames resolving to the same IP address. Is this common practice? I believe that this is not appropriate because if the server goes down, it takes out 2 "mirrors".

What is the normal procedure for this sort of situation? Removal of one of the hosts appears to be the only appropriate solution.
