The crawler which checks if your Fedora mirror is up to date prefers
rsync to crawl as it is much more efficient. The rsync URL specified
in MirrorManager for
distro.ibiblio.org is:
rsync://distro.ibiblio.org/fedora/linux
This does not work as the RSYNC module does not exist. Looking at
fixing the URL I found the RSYNC module fedora-enchilada but that
works only 50% of the time:
$ rsync
rsync://distro.ibiblio.org/fedora-enchilada/
drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2016/09/01 22:28:59 .

drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2016/05/17 00:56:09 linux
$ rsync --no-motd
rsync://distro.ibiblio.org/fedora-enchilada/
@ERROR: Unknown module 'fedora-enchilada'
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at
main.c(1648) [Receiver=3.1.2]
So one of the systems behind
distro.ibiblio.org seems to have a
different rsync configuration. It would be great if this could be
fixed.
The specified HTTP URL is also wrong:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/fedora/linux
But I can fix that myself.
Thanks for supporting Fedora.
Yeah, we talked about a while back changing things so that ibiblio
would just use our
download-ib01.fedoraproject.org mirror that is there
instead of having their own separate one.
We have
download-ib01.fedoraproject.org in service now, but we never
completed the process on making it the default there. Should we do so
now?
Steps I see:
* Make sure
distro.ibiblio.org is disabled in our mirrormanager.
* add network blocks or ASN's that we would like to direct to
download-ib01.fedoraproject.org to download-ib01's mirrormanager
record.
* Remove files/disable syncing on
distro.ibiblio.org and add a README
or redirect to download-ib01.
download-ib01 doesn't carry the 'archive' repo anymore, but otherwise
it should be pretty much in sync and ready to use.
