Not to be that guy... but your link explains. Like right in the first 5 sentences.
The check script runs on a regular basis and polls for the lastsync file in the root of our repository layout. This file is regularly updated on the central repository, so checking the value within allows one to see if the mirror has synced recently.
There is a file called lastsync. It is read < http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/archlinux/lastsync>
Salutations,
Yes, I see that there's a check script but what is it? I'd like to know how that link calculates percent synchronization for a particular mirror. I ask this because there have been instances when a mirror is claimed to be 100% synchronized but isn't.
Regards, Mark
Salutations, Oh I see it now, so "completion" is only a percentage of the number of times the checkscript is successfully run on a particular mirror without disconnecting. Is the lastsync value a hash value or temporal? Regards, Mark -- Mark Lee <mark@markelee.com>
