This is the first release we're doing since moving the master mirrors from Red Hat I/T control to our control. With that, we dropped all the historical mirrors that were using download.fedora.redhat.com and were in its rsync ACLs, forcing people to use the tiering. Right now, we have only a few mirrors reporting having the content (per the mirrorlists): http://mirror.pnl.gov/fedora/linux/releases/15/Fedora/ http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/15/Fedora/ ftp://mirror.cs.princeton.edu/pub/mirrors/fedora/linux/releases/15/Fedora/ http://mirror.seas.harvard.edu/fedora/linux/releases/15/Fedora/ http://mirror.web-ster.com/fedora/releases/15/Fedora/ http://mirror.hiwaay.net/pub/fedora/linux/releases/15/Fedora/ http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/15/Fedora/ Should we consider: a) force mirrors to change to tiering if they want the bits before Day 0. b) opening up the restrictions on dl.fp.o so the historical mirrors don't have to make changes (at a cost of bandwidth from dl*) c) bitflipping really early (e.g. ~now) d) stop using bitflipping entirely ?

But the bottom line is I saw the Fedora 15 is ready to sync and found as per above my mirror is locked out. None of the "Tier1/2" have 15 as a directory available. Can you please tell me in easy terms how I am supposed to sync if my mirror server is locked out ? I have been running as a Redhat mirror since Redhat 7 and have not had this before.
