Dear Stephan,

But I'm not even able to find how often you sync, because e.g. files in the KDE:Distro:Factory repo published on 29.9 are only on 2 german mirrors - files published on 12.9 are on 5. So I would think that mirror admins syncing so seldomly aren't doing themselves a favor in syncing opensuse repositories, but I'm not sure.
We get our data pushed from OpenSUSE directly. If there are files missing, please push better :) I see that *Factory* is excluded for your mirror, that explains a good share of what I see as it matches the project name - one of the most busy ones actually.
We have no way of telling how many mirrors are available when people download repositories, even though it would be surely a good number to know. I don't even know how many mirrors we need in the world ;(
Use ?mirrorlist: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_Fac tory/KDE4-BASIS.ymp?mirrorlist
That's the _current_ status, not the one the user saw. If you could find out a pattern of files that is causing a lot of rsync traffic, but few http traffic, we can easily add this to the exclude pattern. I can imagine e.g. home:/ having a bad ratio. If you have no time for that, perhaps you dig out a the http traffic logs for a given day (weekday preferred), so I can match it against the repos pushed to you. I can also offer that we offer a push mode only containing popular software gathered from our redirect logs. That should increase your http/rsync ratio too :) Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mirror+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: mirror+help@opensuse.org

Oh, I thought we were mirroring everything OpenSUSE has to offer. What do we need to do to actually get that? Could you just add Factory to the pushes (and do a full sync)? We will extend disk space on demand, so it may take a while until we are complete (as an alternative could you tell us how much space we need?).

I guess there is little difference, especially for the users that download now.

This is on my list, I will come back to you.

Well, that was not my intention. I just wanted to start a discussion about the topic and see how things work out. Bye, -- Carsten Otto otto@informatik.rwth-aachen.de LuFG Informatik 2 http://verify.rwth-aachen.de/otto/ RWTH Aachen phone: +49 241 80-21211

/repositories is 1.6T btw. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mirror+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: mirror+help@opensuse.org

That would be nice (late answer...). -- Carsten Otto otto@informatik.rwth-aachen.de LuFG Informatik 2 http://verify.rwth-aachen.de/otto/ RWTH Aachen phone: +49 241 80-21211
