[opensuse-project] bad news: download.opensuse.org lost its filesystem
Hi, We face at the moment a rather critical problem - in download.opensuse.org's RAID 2 discs died at the same time, which means we can't restore the filesystem at all. Most stuff is copied somewhere else, but restoring it from scratch can take easily a day - we're talking about several TB. For now I redirect download.o.o to widehat.opensuse.org, which won't be able to hold the load for long - but it's better than spitting errors.

Any updates today? openSUSE without download.opensuse.org repos is like back in the 7.2 days where we had to wait for a new distro release to get updated packages.

Redirected to widehat.o.o, but it doesn't have enough power to handle the load on the long run, and it has been disabled/broken since a while too.
A lot of repos are still missing.
There are a _very_ few mirrors of the repositories, such as http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/opensuse/repositories/ -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- we haz green _\_v http://fosdem.org -- we haz conf

OK, we managed to rebuild the data - I'm currently rerunning a full sync of the buildservice repositories and will do a full rescan of the mirrors and after that we should be all green again. But due to this trouble I would like to cancel Milestone 4 without replacement. We will have Milestone 5 in time - I hope. Any other suggestions?

No, and skipping #4 is a sensible thing to do. BC -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Great News!!! It's like pouring some water on grass after a long summer. Everything grows green again and commitments renewed. Thank you

Be focused on Milestone 5 would help reorganizing it after this disruption (HDD and RAID issues) and make the oS-12.2 final release delivery on time.
