Hi,
Basically what the title says. Mirror's been disabled due to downtime, but hasn't been re-enabled (automatically) after being back up. Is this normal behavior ?
Cheers! Sami

How did you disable it?
We have a crawler that looks at mirrors and adds or removes them from rotation based on if they are up to date or not. If you didn't do anything, normally the crawler would drop your mirror if it was down or out of date and then re-add it back after it was up/synced. Is the mirror synced up?
Additionally, you can disable a mirror in the mirrormanager interface: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mirrormanager/ if you do that, it will stay disabled until you re-enable it there.
If you let us know what the mirror is, we can look in more detail.

The crawler is actually disabling mirrors which are not active for a few days via User_Active. If a mirror has been disabled like this it will have a corresponding comment in the comment field and needs to be manually enabled again. We added this a couple of years ago to not try to scan really old and unmaintained mirrors.

This sounds reasonably, but also our mirror (ftp.upjs.sk) has been disabled this way years ago. It's OK, but mirror admin should be reported about this. At least mirrormanager client script reports this?

I can see the rational behind this (although 2 days inactive, I think, is a bit premature for this kind of measure). But I agree with Ján, that at least the admin should be notified.
