Below is a list of our current mirrors that support rsync. I would like to begin the process of setting up Tiered mirroring to give gerolde some breathing room.
To do this, I would like to know the following things: * Which of these mirrors are unreliable?
Only rit.edu sometimes have a out-of-sync, but the reason is most times not finished sync to rsync.al.org...
* How many mirrors do we want at the first tier?
My suggestion is 2 per country if the count of mirrors in this country is for ex. bigger than 4. Otherwise one per country.
* What criteria should we use to decide which mirrors are capable of being a tier 1 mirror?
My suggestion: public rsync access, a minimum of 4 times sync to archlinux per day(often is better), university and well know hosters are privileged above "private mirrors".
* What is the rsync speed for these mirrors? (How much bandwidth do they have to offer?)
If anyone has the time to research this, please do so and respond.
Mirrors supporting rsync: 26 aarnet.edu.au archlinux.fi archlinux.nautile.nc archlinuxfr.org archlinuxfr.org c3sl.ufpr.br csclub.uwaterloo.ca ftp.df.lth.se gwdg.de hs-esslingen.de iinet.net.au internode.on.net las.ic.unicamp.br leaseweb.com mirror.svk.su mirrors.xmission.com pacific.net.au pwsz.elblag.pl rit.edu roedu.net spline.inf.fu-berlin.de twilightlair.net umoss.org unej.ac.id uni-bayreuth.de uni-kl.de
I have additionally (my list of rsync mirrors is not complete): ftp.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp (FS#14627) ftp.rnl.ist.utl.pt )FS#15670) I could try to check until weekend all mirrors if their rsync access works... Gerhard
