Public mirror listing request

[Andres Ofner]

Hi!

We (next layer GmbH) are a small company located in Vienna, Austria (AT)
with prime network connectivity and an open peering policy. For some years
now we are also offering a CentOS as well as an EPEL mirror under
http://mirror.nextlayer.at/ (no rsync currently, sorry) with a theoretical
(shared) bandwidth of 10 Gbps. We tried to fulfill the requests that we have
seen on this list for other listing requests, in particular:

- Using a nearby Tier 1 mirror (ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de),

- Create an account in MirrorManager and registering the host,

- Using quick-fedora-mirror (for some time already) which should take care
of reporting to this account.

Sync interval is currently set to 6 hours.

Anything else we are supposed to do?

Cheers,

Andres

Nice, as that is my mirror. So if you have any problems syncing let me
know.

Looks good. The crawler already scanned your mirror and you should see
clients being re-directed to your mirror. If you can offer rsync that
would help our crawler.

I do not see any reports being checked in for your mirror, so maybe you
need to verify your configuration.

No, everything looks correct. Thanks for your mirror.

The other mirrors with fedora-buffet that I tested successfully had a
much higher latency so it was a logical choice ;-)

I checked the configuration and the source code for quick-fedora-mirror;
while the former is correct, it seems that the script will not report
anything unless there was a successful file transfer done by rsync. If
no changes were done (i.e., the mirror was already up to date) the code
in lines 1120 ff. will bail out of the script before reaching the
checkin code in lines 1270 ff.

So I assume that this is expected behavior and the reports will be
submitted as soon as the upstream repo has a change for us.

Best regards,
Andres

Yes, the checkin takes quite some time and doing it on every single poll
would be pointless.  You can easily poll every ten minutes, but it can
easily take six minutes for a single module checkin attempt.

I do intend to implement --checkin-only at some point, but mirrormanager
will crawl your site in any case so there isn't really an urgent need
for it.

sync not possible

[Sebastian Sterk]

Hi, mirror synchronization is no longer possible since a few days.
Nothing has changed on my server.

# rsync -aqzH --bwlimit=3000 --delete eu-msync.centos.org::CentOS <Path to Dir>

@ERROR: Unknown module 'CentOS'

rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1516) [Receiver=3.0.9]

Was there an update or has something changed on eu-mysnc.centos.org side?

My mirror: http://mirror.wiuwiu.de/centos/

Thanks,
Sebastian

You probably want to talk to the Centos list, not the Fedora list, as
they have different infrastructure.  That list is
