Looking out for stale mirrors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



FYI.  On Monday 3/22, I changed how Fedora's MirrorManager treats
"stale" mirrors (mirrors with valid, but not quite up-to-date,
content).  Previously, mirrors could be at most 7 days stale, and
still be offered via the mirrorlists, to yum.  Now, that is at most 2
days stale.  This allows for sufficient propogation delay for new
updates, while ensuring that our users are getting the latest updates
that are available.

If you see yum frequently falling back to use another mirror, please
let mirror-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx know which mirror you see it
falling back from (the "stale" mirror), so we can investigate with the
mirror owner.

Thanks,
